ANOTHER death in ICE custody. That makes 14 in 2026, and we’re not even done with March yet.
This is on track to be the deadliest year for immigration detention in the U.S. ever. Period.
BREAKING: After ProPublica published letters written by children at the Dilley concentration camp, ICE officers raided the dormitories and confiscated the children's letters. I'm suing ICE to get them back. I'll explain it all in 45 minutes on @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/live/H-D8SzR...
“I wish I would have known that I could speak up.”
“I wish I knew that I could ask for a nurse to be present.”
As we’ve reported on sexual misconduct by OB-GYNs, many women told us they didn’t know what was normal. We created this guide with the help of providers, patients and experts.

"I hate CoreCivic ☹️"
Not the main point of this piece, but: detaining a mom and 5 kids must cost U.S. taxpayers at least $400/day. (It was $319/family 5 years ago.)
At that rate, locking up this family for 9 months would run at least $108,000.
A man who was shot by Connecticut police last year and later died had to wait 10 extra minutes for another ambulance to arrive at the scene, after another officer having an anxiety attack took the first one.

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.
Every stage of this process - his arrest, spending a year in jail, being dumped on the streets to die - would be deeply shameful in a society that actually valued human life.
We need a law that creates liability for the individual federal agents and the US as employer. With fee shifting.
They killed him.
It takes a lot to infuriate me and break my heart only because you have to be able to tolerate a lot when covering Trump and fascism and try your best to stay centered and hopeful.
This story I can't let go.
They chose to let him just die.

JUST IN: Judge Provinzino in Minnesota has held a Justice Department attorney in civil contempt for violations of her order requiring the return of a released ICE detainee’s ID documents. He must pay $500 a day until the documents are returned.
