“This World Cup is shaping up to be one of extreme exclusion."
Hundreds of people at Delaney Hall have been on hunger strike to protest the conditions they are subjected to as they presumably await adjudication--and reporters seeking to shed light on the situation have been met with pepper spray and rubber bullets.

The FIFA World Cup kicks off today with two games in Mexico. This will be the biggest World Cup in history, with teams from 48 countries playing over 100 games in 16 host cities across Canada, Mexico ...
We’ll have a conversation about what’s happening at Delaney Hall, ICE's New Jersey detention center, and the bigger systems and structures in back of it.
I talked with Rogelio Bolufé, organizer of the Union of People Kidnapped by ICE. The US government deported him to Ecuador earlier this month, even though he's from Cuba, and left him there with nothing.

This is why all of you have a DUTY to stop paroting austerity language at the Federal level. The money is there. It's just not going to supporting life affirming institutions and programs.

This is an incredible victory for the local communities, researchers, litigators, and longstanding anti-detention organizers in these states that have been working tirelessly to stop these sites from going online. But warehouse expansion continues in AZ, TX, and elsewhere. The fight is far from over
@detentionwatchnetwork.org is continuing to work with local communities to fight the warehouses (toolkit here: bit.ly/noicewarehouse) and stop expansion of detention in more traditional facilities such as former prisons. Despite the billions in funding, there is a lot we can still do to stop them.

In Texas, ICE is repackaging the plan for the warehouse in Socorro for offices, training space and some detention. The scale might be reduced but they are moving ahead: www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...

SCOOP: ICE is planning to offload seven warehouses purchased for more than $700 million by either giving them to other federal agencies or selling them outright, according to documents obtained by The New York Times.

Congress voted to give ICE and CBP another $70 billion through 2029.
"There is no question that this bill passing will make it incredibly difficult to reverse the creation of a huge deportation machine at the hands of President Trump,” @naynagupta.bsky.social tells @washingtonpost.com.
ICE and CBP will be able to keep spending money at a scale that will transform immigration enforcement and with fewer checks and balances.
