This is particularly noteworthy right now, as the agency is already quite understaffed and losing people to ICE.
By the end of last year, the agency lost a net of more than 1700 employees, wiping out all of their hiring gains from the year before:

As Federal Prisons Run Low on Food and Toilet Paper, Corrections Officers Leave in Droves for ICE
Many of the problems the agency is facing now are not new, but staff and prisoners fear an exodus of officers could make life behind bars even worse.

Last week I asked BOP officials if they had sent tactical teams to Minneapolis. They denied it (left).
Multiple agency sources told me otherwise, and photos from

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Investigate and prosecute political opponents, sell pardons to your rich friends so they can commit crimes with impunity. Authoritarianism isn’t coming, it’s here, whether people realize it or not.

I even want to get my nails done, something I never cared about before...
