Rachel Maddow referred to the string of detention warehouses as an "archipelago," presumably in reference to the Gulag Archipelago. I think of towns like Treblinka and Auschwitz/Oswiecim that will never escape their association with death camps. Maybe American towns don't want that legacy.

I’ve been reading about this today. Ice purchasing warehouses and places with no windows. The purpose, to capture in put resistors into these torture chambers. We cannot go in our country like this. I don’t care about the constitution anymore. I care about stopping these people whoever they are ..

I live close to Social Circle, GA. It is a very red town in a very red county, but they are very NIMBY about everything. It is a very Lepards eating faces situation.

Keep at it we need to know everything about DHS and where they want to buy warehouses to keep detainees!! We have to keep on this!! We can’t let them buy warehouses or any property to keep detainees!! Not happening

🇨🇦 So where is all this money coming from? Your govt debt is in the trillions People are not getting any benefits except to pay for these Gestapo goons in Govt who are supposed to work for the people Wake Up 🇺🇸

Can someone give us a list of the zoning for those properties? I'll wager very few are zoned for prisons That's the way to fight these concentration camps is to object at the county level land use regulations

You should also compare that to the local Sex Offender registry… to the employee files for who will be moving there to work the concentration camps

Any tips on how to fight back? Many of us don't want concentration camps next to our homes. Or this admin to begin with. What are the first steps to fight the good fight?

The thing that is working nationwide is to show up at city or county council meetings and use public comment time to be heard. CALL your electeds, give them your name and zip code, and tell them how you feel about these warehouses.

Thank you for this tool and the tips. I am emailing the owner of a facility in my hometown. Would greatly appreciate it if others would write them as well. info@tpa-grp.com

Thank you for flagging! As of this writing there are conflicting reports on the status of 29 Elizabeth Drive. There are claims it was sold to a front company run by DHS / ICE; however, the realtor I spoke with representing the property said it's still available for sale.

Thanks for this, just saw you on Maddow. I see 2 just north, NW of Reading, PA. Hmm, both next door to Amazon warehouses. Why am I not shocked by that! These are CONCENTRATION CAMPS!

The 'massive warehouse for processing illegals' project has a concentration-camp vibe, probably on purpose. The president embraces Nazi projects everywhere. I hope to see Americans putting the brakes on these in every possible way.

Reminds me of Rex-84 and the plan to round up immigrants and people deemed national security threats, and place them in prison camps run by FEMA To be established on US military bases throughout the country. This plan has been in the works for a while, at least since the 1980’s.

Can someone check in to Corey Lewindowski’s connection to the warehouse that they are scoping out in Merrimack NH. Also, check in to our governor’s denial (Kelly Ayotte) of knowing anything about the discussions. Always follow the $$$.

Rachel Madow said the facility approval was denied for Social Circle GA. The town has a stated population of 5000. A facility for 8500-10000 detainees is double the town’s population. The town does not have water and sewage capacity to support that number of detainees.

Tom Homan is part of the leadership of an organization that seeks to be Trumps thug army. Currently they are supported by Google in reaching out to extremist and encourage them to join ICE.

Today is #VisibilityDay at Freedom Park. Another opportunity to show your support to abolish ice. I'll be bringing these. Acceptance doesn't make anyone a paid protester. Rest assured George Soros is not involved.

Nice work. What's the source of beds data? Couple of ideas: - If you can find APN, that is more reliable and stable than street address (and often includes more info). - If you separate the state or zip, that would allow filtering to aid in organizing resistance. Also: bsky.app/profile/dbon...

If the Feds or these states adopt the 2024 IBC, this conversion from warehouse to detention (I-3 occupancy) should trigger a wind & seismic upgrade. Just sayin', if they used the building code to make it harder to build abortion clinics, this is a much more justified application.

Hey there — beds data comes from a leaked document that Washington Post reported in December. I actually have the data broken out by street/city/state but concatenated it so people on mobile could somewhat read the data. I’ll balance it out tomorrow.

Not yet. We’re watching the federal clearinghouse data like a hawk. Especially watching firms like SK2 LLC who have previously been attached to design and due diligence contracts for these processing centers. Will also update with info when fit-out contracts start showing up.

The community in Chester, NY has been protesting that (potential?) facility. And Cushman & Wakefield has tons of properties in the city, for what that is worth. Here are some of the New York offices and phone numbers. www.cushmanwakefield.com/en/united-st...

While it's informative to know the agents and owners of the properties under consideration, the identity of those representing DHS might be more useful. This is not a GSA internal operation.

nice concentration camps you got there, orange kool-aid drinkers. on an unrelated topic a friend sent me this piece against my will. i said i didn’t have time to read it and wasn’t aware how it would even apply here. www.businessinsider.com/drone-traini...

businessinsider.comUkrainian troops taught the British Army that it takes at least 60 hours of work to become a decent drone pilotUkraine is teaching its partners what's needed for large-scale drone warfare, including what it takes to get pilots ready.

Any update on the possible Hagerstown, MD facility? Rep. April McCain Delaney (D) has been pumping out ads 24/7 saying she's fighting to stop it but I don't trust her at all. She betrayed us by voting to thank ICE & she also voted to condemn socialism right when Zohran won. Classic corporate lib BS.

Hey! As of early Jan., ICE owns the facility outright. Washington County has signaled that they will not intervene to hold up permitting or other work. We wrote about one resident who is filing to become a consulted party due to alleged issues with how the sale and comment process occurred.

This is disgusting. warehouses already take too much space as is and are often close to places they shouldn't be. Which sucks but at least normally they're used by actual businesses that can bring money to the area The same can not be said if ICE buys them; in that case it is fully a waste of space

gosh, maybe instead of wearing a pin on a red carpet, the rich as fuck liberal celebrities could actually DO something. have your people track warehouse space that goes in the market, and pay cash.

I appreciate learning about this site last night on The Last Word. It has run through my head, though---could we name any existing and future concentration camps Trump #_______ (fill in the blank.) ? After all, he wants lots of places to be named after himself.
