This report should make every American with a conscience feel scared.
Donald Trump and his supporters are turning our country into something unrecognizable and terrible. This kind of cruel treatment of people starts with big bad things in history. This group of people don’t see nonwhite migrants as real people, which is why they’re willing to act so cruelly.
“I just exercised my right as a Member of Congress to conduct an unannounced oversight visit of the ICE field facility in Baltimore,” Raskin wrote on X. “The staff I met with respected my right to visit, but what I saw was disgraceful.”
“Kristi Noem has a budget of $75 billion she could use to ensure humane conditions, but we saw 60 men packed into a room shoulder-to-shoulder, 24-hours-a-day, with a single toilet in the room and no shower facilities,” he recounted. “They sleep like sardines with aluminum foil blankets. Whether it’s for three days or seven days, nobody would want a member of their family warehoused there.”
“The room set aside for dangerous criminals and violent offenders was empty. We’re demanding immediate answers and action,” Raskin concluded.
The last part of Raskin’s post shows a lot.
Trump’s story about immigration is based on a lie that he’s trying to stop violent criminals to protect Americans. He claims that all the state-sanctioned violence is okay because it makes everyone safer. In reality, the rooms meant for violent offenders are empty, and innocent families are being put in cages. This is all about Trump wanting more power and pleasing his racist supporters.
There’s no more room for debate.
With this new problem and the killings in Minnesota under her leadership, Kristi Noem has shown herself to be a big danger to American democracy. She must be impeached and fully investigated.”
