    Remember: As the Trump administration rounds up thousands of migrants and their children at the border, defense contractors and private prisons are making a fortune. We must defund this industry of cruelty and indifference.pic.twitter.com/SeaGM9fPlk

        Cruelty is mother's milk to these monsters. "For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows."

        Individual-1 might suffer a consequence, great. The problem is far bigger than him. It would be a far more potent 'cure' for the moral disease these fascist monsters have wrought to hold them all to account and to prosecute, convict, and imprison all of them.

        We need some sunlight on the groups that stand to profit from these actions and especially who owns the companies. Majority stockholder lists ect.

        Do so few remember the Fascists, quietly squeezing the disenfranchised into smaller and smaller 'boxes' of highly restricted mobility, while all the while the privileged class went blindly and willfully ignorant on their way? There are STILL survivors of the death camps even NOW.

        Absolutely correct -- we should look into each and every company given a contract and follow the money -- I'm sure pay-to-play was involved somehow.

        Profiting directly from child abuse. The people getting rich or collecting a paycheck from this deserve to spend the next couple of decades in prison. It was a heinous and immoral plan from the jump, anyone could've seen that. They KNEW it was/is evil and they did it anyway

        The 'kinder gentler' look of modern Fascism (the blending of private business with government projects.) Tagline; "We don't kill nearly as many as in the 'old days.' (but then, how would we know...do we think they're going to tell us at the next so-called press conference?)🗽🇺🇸🌎

        They aren't just making a fortune - they are targeting children for deviant sexual assaults. These kids are directly in harm's way.

        Prisons and detention facilities like law enforcement and the military should be solely under the control of the government of the people. It should not be constitutional for them to be managed by private entities. Period.

        Is the little girls death being reported today, simply a sign of future deaths to come at the hands of our government? The German fascists didn’t kill all their victims at one time - they started out with one at a time.
