Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's bad enough already, laid out like bunks at Auschwitz or on a slave ship, with little ventilation, and public water and sewage that has already been called inadequate, but this made my blood run cold:
The floor plan shows only a single path for 8,500 detainees and hundreds of staff to evacuate in an emergency like a fire. While the warehouse has at least 30 more doors that the floor plan does not appear to account for, even those may not be enough for egress.
Fire. 8,500 people and only one point of egress at this time. And they want to have it open by May.
But hey, it's in the admin section so at least some of The Right People™ get out, I guess.
We said we would never do this as a country again, yet here we are for round two.
Concentration Camp. Call it what it is.
Yeah, but this time Europe and China can do precision strikes, so the new allies can do for Americans what WW2 allies couldn't do for the Jews in Auswitch - and that's target the administrative section exclusively.
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie.
Why the fuck does the floor plan include a gun range?
Zero their sights probably
This is how the Holocaust started
So they are concentrating immigrants in warehouses now?
Unfortunately, they have been. There are dozens of these all over the US.
The line between a concentration camp and a slaughterhouse begins to blur
Here is the important question.
Why keep all these people?
Why not just ship them back out asap ?
Slave labor.
Trafficking of kids and women.
SLAVERY.
Also private contractors making tons of money building, staffing and managing this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dachau_concentration_camp
After the takeover of Bavaria on 9 March 1933, Heinrich Himmler, then Chief of Police in Munich, began to speak with the administration of an unused gunpowder and munitions factory. He toured the site to see if it could be used for quartering protective-custody prisoners.
Himmler announced in the Münchner Neueste Nachrichten newspaper that the camp could hold up to 5,000 people, and described it as "the first concentration camp for political prisoners" to be used to restore calm to Germany.[18] It became the first regular concentration camp established by the coalition government of the National Socialist German Worker's Party (Nazi Party) and the German National People's Party (dissolved on 6 July 1933). Dachau was the concentration camp that was in operation the longest, from March 1933 to April 1945, nearly all twelve years of the Nazi regime.
History doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme.
Disgusting from ICE.
Are we still pretending these are for immigrants?
