The BB bill "also provides an additional $45 billion for ICE to detain migrants, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion.... this budget will give ICE more money for detention than it gives the entire U.S. Bureau of Prisons."

They're going all-in on tent camps. The GEO Group & CoreCivic are expanding the number & capacity of their facilities, but that's not enough for Stephen Miller. On May 17, ICE initiated contracts with these 25 companies to provide “emergency detention & related services.” Source: USAspending.gov

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location. ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her. This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

In light of stripping Harvey Milk's name from a Navy ship, on this anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, & in the sad aftermath of the assassinations of Melissa Hortman, her husband, & her dog, I need to observe that Milk and Mayor Moscone were also assassinated by a white male conservative.

Honestly, this is my #1 objection to yesterday’s decision. SCOTUS had many, many opportunities to curb universal injunctions against the Biden administration. For four years, it refused. Then, almost as soon as Trump returned to office, it changed the rules to take away universal injunctions. Why?
