I know President Biden tried, but we need to make sure that "private" prisons are illegal, and that anyone running one and their stockholders are all personally liable for any damages done to people placed in a private prison.

Normal libs. Go ahead and post all you want, but it is very telling that you didn't post Markwayne's defense of ICE in its entirety:

Drummer, vocalist and actor Levon Helm was born on this day in 1940. "Here's a new recording sensation for you youngsters..." -- it's The Band on The Ed Sullivan Show performing "Up On Cripple Creek":

And from The Last Waltz, here's "The Weight" with The Staples Singers:

Here they are without Robbie on Letterman's show playing "Atlantic City" in 1984 with Levon on mandolin and vocals:

It's this a good time to bring up polling that shows MAGA overwhelming supports Trump's horrific immigration policies? Probably not.

MAGA supports whatever Donnie tells them to support. Cult gonna cult.

Awwww. Secretary Twonames decrying “political stunts” while serving in the Reality Show Mob Boss’s Cabinet. How cute!

"[the] Husband of [an] American citizen wife and kid"

Just to be clear, the husband has an American citizen and they have a kid, is in detention, or the hasband AND kid are confined? Anyone know?

Saviour of Bread's avatar

I’m more curious why locking up citizens is worse than locking up noncitizens.

If only it was the idiots who violated the plaintiffs' rights who had to pay. I've seen about four of these in the past couple months. Three are mentioned in the article.

Its been ungodly hot in England the last couple of days.

But tonight there's a thunderstorm and rain.

I've missed such things.

Not the heat, the storms.

Cheers Y'all's avatar

It feels like living in normal weather England around here, rain for the last 7+ days, with a few little breaks here and there.

jaspersdad's avatar

I read yesterday that England had the hottest day in May ever recorded. 34C

Aquaman, Real Estate Investor.'s avatar

Yep.

Or as per the meme, the coolest spring of the rest of our lives.

Haven't heard the death count yet.

Russell Jones's avatar

lmao

Almost as funny as those James Harden defense montage vids.

Almost. :D

PSA

It is my understanding that YT content creators don't receive credit for videos not watched in their entirety. So, if you get the gist of a video, silence it and let it play out. Open a new tab and do something else.

Militant Agnostic's avatar

I had heard that it was minimum 1 minute, then they get credit. But I don't know.

paul's avatar

One of my daughters made videos and said that that rule had changed based on her own metrics.

Mark's avatar

That must be a delicate balancing act - keep it short and sweet or longer for more advertisements to be inserted?

Also the ads were so bad (content, length, quality) that I signed up for Premium.

It didn't work. I still see ads. Supposedly fewer and only on "select content," but not that I can tell.

Militant Agnostic's avatar

Hmm. I always close a video just before it ends because you can no longer select to not auto-play whatever video YT feels like playing next.

Mysterysurf's avatar

Sure you can. Just don't use the radio player feature. At least that's my experience with it.

Rep. Menendez is on with Nicolle right now.

NatalyaResists's avatar

A billion of our tax dollars and there's no oversight of their savagery. Disgusting.

BillEGoatSmile's avatar

President Obama had started phasing out private prisons.

This needs to go back on the top 10 list of shit that needs to be fixed when we take over again.

josephebacon's avatar

Do you feel the same way about Jews, Beckwith?

How about Hindus? Sikhs? Buddhists? Atheists?

Indiana's Christian nationalist Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith says the key to saving America is "giving people permission to hate" Islam, like he does: "I hate Islam. It's a demonic death cult." '

"It's a demonic death cult."

So is Republican MAGA Christianity. Bellend.

Bobathonic, Dingus Crusher's avatar

Death cult? They don't even have a dead guy on a stick in their mosques.

Apollyon Danish's avatar

"Dead Guy on a Stick" didn't last half as long as "Hot Dog on a Stick" at my local mall.

Hops: grrrr mad's avatar

'dead guy on a stick'

I love you.

Russell Jones's avatar

>>It's a demonic death cult.<<

Since the GOP is itself a demonic death cult nowadays, I'm thinking could be possibly mayhaps a different reason for this smooth-brain hating Islam.
