Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Chappell Roan and Orville Peck were the first two artists to separate from the Wasserman Music agency when CEO Casey Wasserman was revealed to be in the Epstein files. Others have left the agency now too (Dropkick Murphys), but it's good the queer artists led the way.
