Sen. Mark Kelly on MS NOW: "I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane. I've been nearly shot down multiple times … My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head, six people killed around her … We know what political violence is. And we know what causes it, too."

Not much strategic thinking here, is there?
I mean, if my number one priority were expelling migrants from the US, then invading, destabilizing, and ultimately economically exploiting a region that is the source of a great many migrants might seem … a little counterproductive?

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
