@igd_news An even greater windfall for private prison corporations is in the offing. Trump supporting companies Core Civic and Geo Group made obscene profts last year. Core Civic was up by 69%. GEO Group profits increased by 800%!
ICE wants space to incarcerate at least another 20K people.
Make sure everyone sees this then. The FCC apparently changed its “equal time” rule on talk shows to make it hard for Colbert or The View to air interviews with candidates like Talarico. Video link in comments.
Screenshot of a post from James Talarico claiming Trump didn’t want an interview aired, alongside a still image of Talarico sitting across from Stephen Colbert on a late-night talk show set.

@ProPublica I am rage crying for these families. Trump did the same thing to immigrant families during his first term, and a lot of American voters invited him back into office to commit more crimes against humanity..
Am sending a donation to RAICES today. They provide free legal counsel and social service to immigrants. https://raicestexas.org/about?gad_source=1
Thank you, Julie Johnson, for speaking out against the grotesquely misnamed SAVE act. We need you to keep fighting for us in the House.
Screenshot of an X post from FactPost quoting Rep. Johnson questioning a proposal to require passports to register to vote, noting that many Americans do not have passports and asking whether the $150 passport fee would be waived to avoid creating an unreasonable poll tax. Below is a CNN screenshot showing a woman speaking remotely, with a banner reading: “DHS FUNDING TALKS AT A STANDSTILL AS DEADLINE APPROACHES.”
@nomdeb
@georgetakei I needed Real ID when I moved to a new state.
I'd let my passport expire. Had to obtain original birth certificate, plus ancient marriage and divorce records from 2 different states where I previously lived. This was during the pandemic. It took nearly 3 months to get the old documents and it cost me $120 on top of the Real ID fee. Pro tip, never let your passport expire!
SAVE Act will disenfranchise millions of women who don't have passports, but they have no idea yet.
A U.S. senator is justifying war crimes: the military acting as judge, jury, and executioner for non-capital offenses. A reminder that there is evidence innocent passengers were onboard these vessels.
A tweet from The Bulwark Online includes a transcript of an exchange between Sen. Mullin and CNN’s Dana Bash. Below the text is an image showing Bash on the left and Mullin on the right during a TV interview, with blue studio backgrounds behind each.
Earlier this weekend, Trump described his peace plan as a document which Zelenskyy had to accept before Thursday, or they would lose support from the US.
Now Marco Rubio says that it is just a working document which will be revised many times, and it will take more time to find agreement.
Seriously, who is ever going to trust this flip-flop government?
@randahl Trump also said this weekend that the 28 point "peace plan" was not his final offer. He constantly contradicts himself.
Never, ever believe him.
