Woman shot by ICE agents in Chicago last Saturday has been released from custody today by judge since body cam footage contradicted the government's claim she drove toward the agents. Instead, it revealed the agent saying, "Do something, bitch," before pulling over and shooting her five times.
STOP!

Private prison executives casually discussed the "3,000 arrests per day" quota in earnings calls—despite the Department of Justice previously denying any quota exists. This is fueling immigration raids nationwide while companies rake in record profits.

In Earnings Calls, Private Prison Executives Revel in Profiting Off ICE Arrests

“Our business is perfectly aligned with the demands of this moment,” CoreCivic CEO Damon Hininger said on the call.

With the projected increases for groceries, gas, utilities, insurance, taxes, rent, medication, plus the Medicare rate increases or less coverage for Part B, C, & D. We won’t feel like we got a raise. We are getting screwed. These clowns that are running this government are destroying everything.
