The two largest companies running for-profit ICE detention centers — GEO Group and CoreCivic — just reported a combined revenue of more than $1,400,000,000 in Q2 after signing more contracts with ICE. There should be no profit motive to put our community members in horrific detention conditions.

This investigation is pretty staggering, yet also completely unsurprising. The rich and powerful continue to protect and be protected. It’s despicable.

Just a reminder that the president of the United States recently had to pay almost $6 million to the woman he sexually abused and defamed, and not one reporter has asked him about it.

This story is crazy. It would appear Trump admin officials rigged their nationally televised high school civics contest to keep a young man from a Sikh family out of the finalists. www.notus.org/national/ame...

DHS will require every green card applicant to leave the country before applying, even if they qualify for a green card or leaving would disqualify them. The agency has already cut green card approvals in half over the past year. Remember: it was never about legal immigration.

As a doctor, I am horrified by what I saw at the Whipple detention facility in Minneapolis. No medical protocols. No real medical care. No nurse on site when I visited. No beds. No real blankets. Extremely cold temperatures. Minimal food. These conditions are inhumane and unacceptable.
