Is this secret? ICE needs the space because they're hiring 10,000 new officers and support staff for them, all of which need physical office space.
NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign.

Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship.

Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

Lutnick’s visit to Epstein’s island took place in 2012, four years AFTER Epstein pleaded guilty to felony charges of procuring a child for prostitution.

Lutnick and Epstein were also neighbors on East 71st Street in NYC for over a decade and were in business together as recently as 2014.

I watched this interview & it’s excellent. @wyden.senate.gov is doing critical work on #Epstein (follow the money) & #DataPrivacy. His warnings on how #DHS is working with #Palantir reinforce that we must call our reps this week & demand data privacy protections.

The mere threat of this would have instantly ended any presidency from Truman to Obama. Totally normalized now, whether he carries through with it or not. One. Special. Boy.
This is part of a pattern that is impeachable: Trump cuts previously appropriated Congressional funds, but only to states led by Democrats (California, Colorado, Illinois and Minnesota).
The Trump administration plans to rescind $600 million in public health funds from four states led by Democrats because it finds the grants “inconsistent with agency priorities,” according to documents reviewed by the NYT

Howard Lutnick claimed he vowed-in 2005-that he would never spend time with Jeffrey Epstein

Yet it appears the relationship between them became so close-even after Epstein was convicted of a child prostitution charge in 2008-that Lutnick apparently went to Epstein’s island

IN 2012

Lutnick must go

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...
