Don't think people on here really understand yet that criticism of AIPAC is now as mainstream as ever within Democratic politics— I still routinely see people say this is a niche concern among the far left but AIPAC's activities since 2022 have alarmed even some center left incumbents in Congress.

It is pretty impressive how mainstream anti-Palestinian sentiment was in the 1980s all the way through to today
FLASHBACK — 1988: @schumer.senate.gov brags about blocking the "Jackson plank”, a DNC platform item by Jesse Jackson's presidential campaign which would’ve supported Palestinian self-determination.

Here’s when they posted that Americans who moved abroad shouldn’t be allowed to participate in post Trump US politics.

My guess is that the goal here is not only to punish the children for turning more people against ICE/DHS, but also to make news outlets think twice about reporting on kids' suffering at the hands of ICE/DHS, out of concern that doing so might lead to retaliation against the kids.
ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

Adults at ICE concentration camps also get punished for talking with people on the outside who can publicize their stories.
Based on what I've heard at the Otay Mesa camp in San Diego, they're punished with additional work duties, aren't allowed outside in the yard, and denied phone access.

I am serious when MAGA is gone we will need to seriously execute a significant amount of people who were traitors against the Republic and committed crimes against humanity.
The remainder must face life in prison. There can be no reconstruction with the MAGA criminals loose and able to return.
