DHS posted this for Romulus, MI. "ICE proposes to acquire and retrofit the existing warehouse facility at 7525 Cogswell Street [...] for use as a Detention Processing Center."
"Any individual, group, or agency wishing to comment on the project may do so via email at icesustainability@ice.dhs.gov."
"Mayor Hutto put the potential detainee population at 14,000 to 16,000 — which would make it the largest immigration detention facility in modern American history — exceeded in scale only by the Japanese American internment camp at Tule Lake Segregation Center in California during World War II."
For the first time since @projectsaltbox.bsky.social launched their DHS warehouse acquisition tracker, the number of canceled sales is higher than any of the other warehouse-related figures. We've reached a tipping point, folks.

I introduced the first statewide data center moratorium in the country and corporations got mad before the bill language was even done. We should get all the facts before permanently changing the beautiful landscape of our state.

RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.
So for-profit AI companies have trained on the world's largest collaborative volunteer project and a precious free resource, to make money for their for-profit enterprises. They have crushed traffic to the volunteer project, starving it of donors and volunteers

a lot of what trump and the SC are doing does have precedents in american history.
those precedents are bad and people fought them too. the takeaway is we can be better than this, not, "oh well, it doesn't matter because america was always bad."
"it's all bad, everyone is corrupt" is literally a fascist talking point. it is what fascists want you to think. "nothing matters, why resist?"

"This is the deadliest period for journalists in recorded history. More than 240 journalists killed in Gaza alone," journalist @mariaressa.bsky.social said at the UN. "They are targeted and there must be accountability," Ressa added at a meeting marking the United Nation's 80th anniversary.
@mariaressa.bsky.social ’s call at UNGA could not be more urgent.
