One surefire way to prepare the public for rapid expansion of child concentration camps is to use images of people jammed into overcrowded 72 hr processing stations . . .

Just as the regime tried to use exponentially expanded #FamilyDetention as a solution to #FamilySeparation
Keep an eye on the military, which the regime turns to in these times, and which, after the departure of Sec. Mattis, has seen an erosion of institutional resistance, e.g., USS John S McCain on Memorial Day.

New:
@ProjectSouth & Yulio Castro’s widow sued ICE for illegally withholding #FOIA records about Yulio’s death after becoming ill at the Stewart Detention Center in GA.

Here’s Complaint, filed with @ashahshahani and her team and attorney Brian Spears: projectsouth.org/wp-content/upl…
After filing suit, @ProjectSouth got the Detainee Death Report ICE has inexplicably failed to post to its website.

Here are some key points:
The review includes evidence of a practice of failing to comply with the Immigrant Health Services Corps (IHSC)’s guidelines for people suffering from hypertension.

It’s clear why: Doing so would trigger IHSC’s Special MedicalNeeds Patients Policy & increase cost of care.

“We’ve been met with complete silence,” Crow said. “They are not welcoming any sort of scrutiny, which is really troubling.” Congress has a “constitutionally-mandated authority to conduct this oversight and they’re not allowing us to do it,” he added

Based on reports from migrants, their legal representatives & community advocates, we assembled a list of quarantines/“cohorts” that happened in facilities where AF least 1/3 of the average daily population for adult ICE detention has been imprisoned since March. @DetentionWatch
Appreciate @RepJasonCrow’s leadership on this issue and the persistence @creeclaw and others have shown in cutting through the layers of obfuscation to seek the truth.

Okay let’s start #FOIAFriday.

You may remember hearing about how CoreCivic employees at the Stewart ICE prison in Georgia turned away @elrefugioga volunteers who wanted to visit with Jean Jimenez after his mother sought out their help because she was concerned for just safety.
Here’s the story from @JeremyLRedmon at @ajc: ajc.com/news/breaking-…

The reason CoreCivic offered was made up: Because Jean was in solitary he couldn’t have the same access to visitation, so his mother’s visit on the previous day (the day before Mother’s Day) used up his chance
So here’s what actually happened, as revealed by records disclosed in our #FOIA suit . . .

This is what happens in a tyranny of the minority dictatorship.

Saudi Arabia, Russia, North Korea, China, Brunei, Turkey, Vietnam, Syria, Qatar, Bahrain, Belarus, Chad, Rwanda, United Arab Emirates.

How many of these dictators are Trump’s role models and main influence?
If the US doesn’t remove Trump soon, that’s where he’s gravitating. It was small measured movements at first, but the pace has picked up speed towards full dictator.
Muslim bans, Separation of asylum seeking children from parents, child concentration camps have expanded, investigation and intimidation of opposition, complete disregard for the rule of law.

It is very easy to say you are against war in #Venezuela... we all are. 

The reality though is that war came to Venezuela, and has been there for a while. A war of opression, tyranny, criminality, and death. It was not brought by the US, but by the Cubans and the Maduro regime.
2. What some policy makers don't get is that supporting the Maduro regime is not standing up against Trump or against war.

It is rather standing up for the worst kind of war and in support of the very regime that brings death to its own people...
3. In 1940 the majority of americans were against the War. This in essence was tacit support to Hitler and his atrocities. If you think my rational is binary and antagonistic, ask Desmond Tutu what it took to end apartheid.

So, the other thread I was talking about at the beginning of the week and, sadly not about Vagrant Story or Farscape.

One of the questions I see pop-up again and again is why do TE*Fs (note the wildcard placement, there's nothing radical about these #Fuckwits) have such...

1/n
hatred for #trans #people?

Well, if we step back a little and change how we look at the patterns of behaviour, and look at those behaviours in a different paradigm, one more associated with personal relationships, TE*F behaviour and attitudes have a depressingly familiar...

2/n
pattern to them.

CW:Discussion of abuse, and the power dynamics used by abusers

This is going be an angry thread. It’s angry, because of what I see, compared to what I’ve been spending the last few days researching. Let me tell you about what happened shortly after the Nazis were voted into office, & how your both-sides-bad inertia is criminally naive. /1
As early as 1921, Adolf Hitler had talked about the need to contain the ‘bacilli’ of Germany's enemies such as Bolsheviks, other left-wing agitators and, of course, the Jews. Even then, his solution was to be a series of camps that would contain them, modelled on POW camps. /2
In the spring of 1933, following Nazi rise to power, the SA (the party’s early paramilitary) & police arrested thousands - partly in retribution, partly to remove any opposition. These arrests were called ‘Schutzhalt’, or ‘Protective Custody’. /3 dhm.de/lemo/kapitel/n…

The Warsaw Uprising started #OnThisDay in 1944.

It was a major World War II operation by the Polish underground resistance, led by the Home Army (Armia Krajowa), to liberate Warsaw from German occupation.
The uprising was the single largest military effort taken by any European resistance movement during World War II.
In 1944 Poland was occupied by Nazi Germany for almost 5 years. The Polish Home Army planned some form of rebellion against German forces. Germany was fighting a coalition of Allied powers, led by the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and the United States.
