@TexasObserver A quote:But Momin wondered why he, a longtime resident with citizen family members who, unlike many people caught up in Trump’s deportation program, has a shot at legal status, was detained for months and bused and flown thousands of miles around the country, all at taxpayer expense. “What is the benefit?” he asked.1. A lot of people arrested by ICE are here legally or are working towards that. Please don't try to justify their horrible work regardless of that circumstance.2. The benefit goes to the shareholders of private prison companies and their contracted transportation providers. They're wasting federal money because they want to get paid with it, and no one with any power is willing to stand up to military waste --even when it's directly responsible for destroying their voters' communities
