WHAT'S ON RACHEL'S BLUESKY RADAR? |
- "Illiberal governments tend to live or die by their ability to sustain corruption. They rely for support on a network of oligarchs, who in turn are tied to the administration's success. It happened in Hungary, Turkey, Russia and increasingly, it is happening here."
(New York Times)
- Much more here on ICE reversing course (and retracting their initial statements) on two proposed Trump prison camps, from the indispensible team at Project Salt Box:
ICE Issued Confident Announcements About Warehouse Purchases in Two States. Neither Was True. (Project Salt Box)
- and now another retraction/reversal in Chester, New York:
Feds retract statement about Chester purchase; opponents target realtors involved in deal (Mid Hudson News)
- Lebanon, Tennessee:
ICE says it did — then didn't — buy Lebanon detention facility — Residents opposing a proposed ICE detention facility turned out in force at a county commission meeting after the agency retracted its Lebanon announcement. (The Leaf Chronicle)
