GEO Group won ICE's skip-tracing contract. The private prison company brings two decades of surveillance experience—and a troubling track record.

“As soon as I cut my first stencil I could feel the power there. I like the **political edge**. All graffiti is **low‑level dissent**, but stencils have an extra history. They’ve been used to start revolutions and to stop wars.”

#DissidentArtists #Banksy
Street art on a beige brick wall shows the black silhouette of a child swinging a large hammer. The figure is framed within a worn, rectangular patch of wall with peeling paint. Above the artwork are red and white signs, including a fire alarm. Below it, stickers and posters cluster near the ground. The scene blends rebellion and urban grit, suggesting themes of resistance or transformation.

We've been in #NYC this week. Visited #EllisIsland. Been thinking a lot about #Immigration.

Have happy safe and secure Thanksgiving
A wide view of the Statue of Liberty on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. The neoclassical statue stands tall with its right arm raised, holding a torch, and its left arm cradling a tablet inscribed with July 4, 1776. The statue is framed by trees at its base, with water in the foreground and a cloudy sky overhead, evoking a sense of grandeur and historical significance.

The gnome wears a blue outfit with a brown belt and has a determined expression. The background features a clear sky with a few clouds.

A whimsical garden gnome stands on a stone path in a forested area. The gnome has a large white beard, a red pointed hat, and wears a blue shirt with brown suspenders and a utility belt. It holds two signs: one reads “I HEART IMMIGRANTS” and the other features a smiley face. The background is lush with green foliage and tall trees, creating a peaceful, natural setting.

“First they came for the Communists, and I did not speak out.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I said nothing.
Then they came for the Jews.
When they came for me, no one was left to speak for me.”
