Nobody has mentioned the stupidity of converting these warehouses to housing. These are warehouses that are designed to house goods, not people, which means that there are only a handful of bathrooms and maybe an efficiency kitchen. Also, the modern warehouse is designed to store items vertically and have 24'+ ceilings, which makes creating even cubicles difficult. These warehouses also usually do not have much heating or cooling. It is typical in NH to not heat your warehouse in winter, and they usually have air-filled fire suppression systems that are designed to handle really cold temperatures. Finally there are almost no windows in these buildings, and many lack outdoors space for exercise, etc. Stupid, just stupid.
ICE is apparently trying to set up a concentration camp in the town next to mine in a currently unused warehouse owned (ultimately) by Carl Icahn. The county legislature voted against it but that was merely symbolic as it's the County Executive who calls the shots, and he's a dumbass Republican. They might be stymied by the fact that the local sewage treatment facility is already at capacity, but I doubt the Feds will let that stop them.
If any of these fucking bottom-feeders escape to a non-extradition country, it will be the first time in my life when I'd approve of the CIA going in to retrieve them.
So I hear Miller wants to deport 3,000 people a day. And google says that's correct. If so (and he of course hasn't reached that total ever), the ENTIRE POPULATION of the US would be gone in less than a year--population now roughly 348,326,949, his quota would, if achieved, be 399,675,000 in 365 days.
WHAT THE FUCK is wrong with these morons? Much less their enablers and MAGAts generally??
It is amazing to me that people have so little insight, don't they understand that they and anyone who cuts this deal will be forever remembered as the architects of America's Auschwitz?
Bhattacharya, a Stanford University physician and economist, rose to prominence during the pandemic by arguing that the government’s response to the outbreak was too harsh, a stance that put him at odds with public health leaders who said his proposals would imperil the most vulnerable Americans. He co-wrote the Great Barrington Declaration, which was published in October 2020 and called for an end to coronavirus shutdowns. The declaration drew rebukes from government officials — a clash that ultimately boosted his profile and helped draw the support of Kennedy, a fellow critic of the government’s pandemic response.

It is more than a tad gratifying to report that the mayor of the city of Spokane, my home and birthplace, is proposing a ban on ICE detention facilities here.
Thus far support for such a ban has been substantial.
I wish Tacoma had caught on faster. Alas, they are stuck with a detention center. I have en couraged my congress person to set up an everyday inspection to get around the two week warning deal.
I'm surprised they haven't decided to house everyone at Hanford, they can do the Nazis one better and instead of gas kill everyone passively with nuclear waste
The planned processing or filtration camps seem to exceed even the most ambitious Stephen Miller dust dreams of 3K a day? So what’s with all the extra capacity, hmmmmmm?
If DHS/ICE don't submit to prison standards (health care, good food, beds, clothes, clean water, safety, lawyer visit, inspections by Congress and local officials, etc) we should close their facilities, and start trials from the top down. And then start holding them in the airlocks. Oh, that's in space.
Just incarcerate the CEOs and senior managers in those facilities till their trials begin. I'm sure they'll appreciate rotting meat and gruel meals and limited/non existent facilities.
I'm sure there's some pink underwear and rancid sandwich meat left over from Joe Arpaio's time in office. Might as well use those things up on some CEOs and senior management.
I refuse to sit there and listen to him exponentiate upon how much he's done for Black Americans and how much more tBlack Americans love HIM than they do Barack Hussein Obama.
Saw a story on my phone feed today about infants and pregnant women (and their fetuses) being placed in danger by being in ICEsturmabteilung custody. In one instance, an infant who stopped breathing was taken to the hospital but brought back to prison for brown
folks as soon as it was stabilized.
Judges have criticized this treatment of humans.
You'd think that our "pro-life" idiots would be shocked and shamed about this threat to the little babies. You'd be wrong. Here are some of the comments:
"WE don't care...deport deport deport"
"We owe them NOTHING!" (with an ice cube and 'Murkan flag following the written words)
"No more free medical no matter what color" (dumbass doesn't realize that the government is responsible for all medical care of inmates, from if an inmate has a stroke in custody, needs eyeglasses, requires cancer treatments, whatever, the government must provide it all)
"DEPORT THEM and STOP using our TAX DOLLARS for their medical care!!!" (PAB must have written that one)
One of my arguments for radical prison reform is that prisoners are wards of the state. Ethically, as a citizen of any state, I become responsible for their care. My one and only time as a juror was a competency hearing for a mentally ill (by his own admission) convict, seeking to be transferred to a psychiatric hospital. It was kind of surreal, called in to a trial that lasted less than five minutes (the convit's lawyer said he was nuts, the prosecutor said he was nuts.. HOWEVER, one of the three psyciatrists who filled out a assessment form had neglected to say whether or not he was a danger to himself or others). Silly, but yeah... as a human, he had rights, and as a designated caretaker (a resident of the state), we were responsible for his well-being.
Not really. Prenatal care is inadequate for the uninsured or minimally insured. Statistically there will be a certain number of fetal deaths due to this, as well as a certain number of babies born with medical issues.
If, uh, these people are to be deported, then these massive purchases will soon be vacant. Right?
Will we keep paying the jailer companies for maintaining empty properties? Or will the government find other uses for these huge cages?

This story is making me physically ill, I have to step away for a bit.
Do blueprints include ovens and smokestacks?

3000/day works out to 1.095 million in a year.
Damn! My iPhone calculator misled me! Yep, wish I could reconstruct how it came up with the figure it gave me above, sorry!
Which means it would take Nazi Nosferatu 10+ years to acheive his goal of 100MM "illegals"
It is amazing to me that people have so little insight, don't they understand that they and anyone who cuts this deal will be forever remembered as the architects of America's Auschwitz?
Trump wants his "Year Zero." And his followers are just that fucking stupid to follow him over the cliff.

His ancestors obviously survived The Black Death so how bad could have been?
Trump administration announces Wile E. Coyote as Director of Roadrunner Well-being.
If that was the case, the Road-Runner would have nothing to fear.
Perfect candidate for the Party of Death
So help me Sagan but these egomaniacal shit disturbers ARE trying to kill off as many vulerable citizens as they possibly can.
Especially educated ones.
Just like there is both good and bad planning, "education" follows suit.
Jesus Fucking Christ.

Old ladlady had a cat with six toes. Informally named Hanford Downwinder.
Abject sadism levels haven't gotten high enough here to compel such action...just yet.
The planned processing or filtration camps seem to exceed even the most ambitious Stephen Miller dust dreams of 3K a day? So what’s with all the extra capacity, hmmmmmm?
And don't dream they'll be closed, even if the dipshits meet their goal for deportations.
They'lls just be "repurposed" for other detainees to be determined later.
THIS.
And we (wonketeers) will alll gooo dowwwn togetherrrrrr!
Soylent Green! Chorizo style.
Spicy!

Airlocks made by highest briber.

I read that twice before 'incinerate' became 'incarcerate'
But they're likely all white guys, so they can sue for cruel and unusual punishment.
Yeah, the only way to prevent nazism from happening again is to send all of the CEO collaborators straight to the ______.
I visited Manzanar in California, now a national park.
https://www.nps.gov/manz/index.htm
A museum, the original barracks, and what undid me...a pet cemetery for internee's animals.
Someone still cares...origami on several of the graves.
I know a japanese-american woman who was put in an American concentration camp as a girl.
A lesson unlearned by far too many.

Henlo, peoples.
President Tronald Dump is giving a speech for Black History Month.
Because I love you, I will not subject your ears to any of the links.
I refuse to sit there and listen to him exponentiate upon how much he's done for Black Americans and how much more tBlack Americans love HIM than they do Barack Hussein Obama.
In his never-ending quest to improve government efficiency it is now "Black History 15 Minutes".

Pro-life, until birth.
Then you're on your own.
Not really. Prenatal care is inadequate for the uninsured or minimally insured. Statistically there will be a certain number of fetal deaths due to this, as well as a certain number of babies born with medical issues.
That is all true.
But if the fetus dies, that's god's will unless they want to arrest you for it.
Birth defects? That's god's will too, and don't come looking for a handout.

preventive care, in all forms, is not what these assholes care about.
