Orlando's mayor, Buddy Dyer, is a good man and a Democrat. He is powerless to stop this, and ORL has a very large immigrant community.
Orlando mayor says city can’t legally stop ICE detention center from opening
A few municipalities across the country have discussed or even passed measures to stop an ice facility from opening in their communities.

The cities have little power to stop them.
The Hanover County VA (Ashland, in the article) government voted against it and published its response letter here: https://www.hanovercounty.gov/m/newsflash/Home/Detail/1074
Hopefully the owners won’t sell to DHS.
A member of Richmond Defensa spoke at the meeting and specifically named the current owners; alas, I didn’t record his comments, and my memory isn’t that good. -

My most recent information is that ICE has been blocked from building a prison camp in Shakopee; after local, state, and federal electeds rightly objected and the public pressured the real estate developers involved into backing out: https://bsky.app/profile/dbrauer.net/post/3md6hhv5x422s

@MillerTimeGarage @heidilifeldman that’s awesome news!
@MillerTimeGarage @heidilifeldman here’s an article about it — I know it’s in other threads but if you’re reading here first, this is the story:

The more I think about this, the more I think organizing an ongoing protest would be fairly easy to do, and could add in many of the visitors to the area.
It's not that far from the parks, and right off of the Beeline for anyone going from Orlando to the eastern beaches.
It's not like their freaking Alcatraz, this is right near all the tourist destinations.
And freaking Daniel Webster... I thought we'd gotten rid of him.

@heidilifeldman This is good. The camps will be needed when MAGAmoron, his criminal cult, all the MAGAt supporters and all their MAGAt families are rounded up.

Bloomberg, too, needs a new headline writer. ICE is not spending millions on **warehouses.** It's buying and building prisons for people who should never be in one.
