80,000 adults in immigration detention tonight
12000 minors as well ( the real number is bigger without counting the thousands this government “lost”)

Detained undocumented immigrants are not the problem, they are a product, counted as beds per night not as humans.
These beds mean $300 to $700 of YOUR TAX DOLLARS PER NIGHT to a majority publicly traded private prisons.

It is in their interest to keep them filled. They even managed to get the government to commit to a minimum beds payment per night filled or not. Yes, fact check my shit
Not to mention additional costs every time a detained immigrant is moved from location to location, the ridiculous amounts these private prisons charge for phone calls per minute for these inmates to reach family or even their lawyers if they can afford one.
We actually pay sheriffs nationwide a “finders fee” per detained immigrant and a “holding fee”. It is a better business than speeding cameras for these sheriff departments. They even detain citizens for a quick buck.
The immigration outrage is nothing BUT A MULTI BILLION $ SCAM
I will conclude this mini thread as eloquently as I started it:
F*ck anyone and everyone profiting from robbing children of their innocence and humanity and robbing their families off missing their kid’s first words or the first time they walk.
I hope you all get taint cancer.
