    The federal government awarded the Virginia-based company Acquisitions Logics LLC $1.2 billion to operate the sprawling camp.

    There’s a long list of people that need prosecuted after all this…

    But we can’t forget all the people working for these private prisons, especially the c-suite and investors, not just the boots on the ground.

    Take all that money back, and throw all the leaders in prison for human rights abuses.

    There’s no more rules shirt brothers, we can just do the right thing even if a law doesn’t explicitly say we can do it. Well never win a class war by following rules the other side ignores.

        The next government…

        Only the neoliberal wing obstructed holding people accountable last time. Now they don’t control the DNC, so they can’t use the “victory fund” to control state parties during the presidential primary or House/Senate rep’s votes thru threats of bankrupting state parties.

        Like, there’s a shit ton to be optimistic about these days, you just won’t hear about it on anything a billionaire owns, they want people turned off from the Dem party since they lost control.

          Like I am not in the US and generally this is correct, but domestic politics specifically in the US I fear is going to get even worse.

            It will get worse for everyone if we don’t learn, demand better and embody better ourselves. This isn’t going to be top down. It has to be bottom up.

            Oh yeah, the next year shit will get much worse…

            But “it’s always darkest before the dawn” is a saying for a reason. It’s a completely different vibe then when Biden was going into office and everyone knew it was just a brief respite at best.

            The last time we were in this “good” of a position was the great depression, but that got us FDR.

            So on the timeline of a decade, I’m optimistic. Because if I only thought on short timeline these days I’d be depressed as fuck, which is why oligarch owned media wants everyone thinking on short timelines.
