   drones aren't going to show the crimes ICE is doing daily inside their prisons

   have you seen the latest footage that was leaked to Congress?

   you should google it

   hundreds of people locked in what appears to be a commercial warehouse bay with just hundreds of random folding chair, blazing lights overhead and foil blankets in the back under the lights to "sleep"

   they are locked in those conditions for months

   most with perfect legal status and absolutely no crimes

   all hidden from public view so "see no evil, hear no evil"

   these are concentration camps in the United States, there is no way to argue otherwise

   (ICE is even re-using a prison on a military base where citizens who had Japanese ancestry were held during WW2)

      For the people that voted for this they could show all of it on TV and nothing would change. "They are hurting the right people".

         The slightly less monstrous rationalizations I've heard:

         It's fake news!

         It's staged actors (funded by Soros)

         They could have self deported.

         They're criminals! (who overstayed their visas).
