#wtf THIS INHUMANITY MUST STOP. These people are NOT THE WORST OF THE WORST. They are children and families, neighbors, coworkers, friends, pillars of our community. This is WRONG. Call Congress & demand better. Support the ACLU, Democracy Forward, a free press, & all who fight for due process. ACT

This is whack. One cannot contract away state oversight; otherwise, every criminal organization would force co-conspirators to sign a contract stating that the law “shall not apply.” As a matter of public policy, such contract terms are unenforceable.

I have been asking this as the FED is buying property across the nation. Does that land become federal land? And what laws apply on that land. So the fed is buying up all this land in the south - does not sound like something confederates would like very much.

This is a bit silly really because a contract cannot override a law. Contractual clauses that are illegal or counter to the law are void. So typical of the Mikey Mouse legal minds of this administration to come up with what they think is a brilliant work around the law. Idiots

Total corruption brought to you by the majority of Christians in the US! Most of them are still rapidly supporting the convicted digital rapist. When we get rid of this administration we must do something about those churches that are churning out homophobic misogynist, racist bigot fools.

They just make up the rules as they go along. We are not angry enough at what is happening to our country. Handcuffed by a complicit GOP majority that continues to abet lawless admin.

Figures they want to avoid any accountability for their atrocities and human rights abuses. Next gas chambers and crematoriums to pretend these people never existed. Our tax dollars at work while the lemmings bow, bootlick and snivel for their master. Ashamed of being an American.

Don't get in the way of their need to torture, demean and starve. That's what "detention" means so please don't call them concentration camps.

"STATES RIGHTS! STATES RIGHTS! STATES RIGHTS!" Republicans are so two-faced, so obviously it's incredible they have any base at all.

Once again, ignoring the law until somebody forces them to stop. This is the true weaponization of the courts. "We are going to do whatever the hell we want, and make you take us to court over every little thing, every little change, and ignore court orders outright until there's consequences."
