The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency operates a network of 170 unofficial detention sites around the country, called “hold rooms,” according to agency data obtained via the Freedom of Information Act. Located in warehouses, strip malls, office parks, and ICE substations, the facilities are held to different standards than the agency’s official detention facilities. They are not permitted to contain beds, and are not required to contain toilets. Though agency policy limits the time a detainee can be kept in a hold room to 72 hours, federal data show thousands of violations of that rule, including many stays lasting weeks or months at a time.

Indivisible, MoveOn and other groups are encouraging Democrats to dig in for health care concessions from Republicans.
Arthur Delaney at HuffPost:
WASHINGTON — Ezra Levin despaired earlier this month when it appeared Democrats on Capitol Hill had no plan to fight Republicans over government funding. To Levin, who co-founded the progressive group Indivisible in 2016 to resist the first Donald Trump administration, it was “baffling” Democrats hadn’t issued any demands. It looked as if they’d roll over just like they did in March. But now that Democrats have insisted Republicans roll back their recently enacted Medicaid cuts and extend soon-to-expire health insurance subsidies, Levin praised them for making a strong play. “We will cheerlead them,” Levin told HuffPost. “We want them to hold strong,”
Indivisible and other influential progressive groups, including MoveOn, Public Citizen and the Service Employees International Union, are backing Democrats in a high-stakes standoff that appears likely to result in a partial shutdown of the federal government next Wednesday. Republicans in Congress ignored Democrats’ health care demands before adjourning last week without having passed a bill to fund the government past the end of month. On Monday, President Donald Trump agreed to meet with Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), the top Democrats in the House and Senate, only to call off the White House meeting the next day.
“What naming those demands has done is to cause Trump to escalate and pull out of the negotiations, which very clearly places the blame on him,” Levin said. “The Republicans are acting as if they’re throwing the steering wheel out of the window during this game of chicken.” In a social media post calling off the encounter, Trump said no meeting with Democrats “could possibly be productive,” adding that Democrats had “totally lost their way.”
Glad to see the Democrats actually standing up this time on the government spending bill to try to prevent the Trump/Vought government shutdown from happening to keep health care funding.
Hidup memang begini. Nggak ngasih jeda buat kita meratapi kesedihan lama-lama. Kota tetap sibuk, orang-orang tetap bergerak, dan matahari tetap terbit meski hati kita enggan menyambut hari.
Ayo sembuh. Ayo lanjutin hidup.
Kadang nasihat kayak lirik ini terdengar klise, tapi tetap aja ngena banget buat yang lagi berusaha move on atau melepaskan. Bikin lega karena ada pengingat kalau rasa sakit nggak akan selamanya. Yang paling menenangkan, "nothing heals the past like time." Waktu mungkin nggak langsung nyembuhin, tapi dia yang paling tahu caranya bikin kita terbiasa dan akhirnya ikhlas. Apa yang memang ditakdirkan untuk kita nggak akan bisa dicuri atau diambil orang lain. Cinta yang sejati—atau apa pun bentuk kasih yang memang untuk kita—akan tetap menemukan jalannya, meskipun sekarang rasanya kehilangan segalanya.
Apology accepted, H-E-B. 💖😌
Can’t help but feel guilty for trying to move on
How many different ways, in different times, and different places,
Do I have to tell you I love you, before you love me back?
