ICE taking steps to close detention center at Fort Bliss, document shows Preparations to shutter Camp East Montana in El Paso come less than eight months after facility’s opening, according to an internal ICE document.

This ICE detention center is the largest in the country and has become notorious for rampant physical abuse, medical neglect, and death.

We won't let up the pressure until it's shut down for good.

AIPAC sure got their money’s worth from these 4 Dems today

Prisons and human trafficking are the same thing

study after study after study shows that literally just handing people money and telling them "do what you want with this" reduces homelessness, increases food security for children, makes it more likely people will find and retain jobs.1

Zohran Mamdani now says NYPD should respond to domestic violence incidents, backtracking on past controversial statements “That has not been part of the proposal we have put forward over the course of the campaign,” said Mamdani on Wednesday when asked if his new Department of Community Safety (DCS) would …

New Pennsylvania Law Seeks to Aid Abuse Survivors Who Resist — But Is It Enough? Laws to help “criminalized survivors” who fight back against their abusers often merely reduce their prison time.

As a pragmatic abolitionist, I'll use any tool I can to get people out of prison. But laws decreasing sentences for/allowing for resentencing of criminalized survivors are not everything we need to prevent injustice. We need for survivors not to be prosecuted at all. Mine @truthout.org.

States of Women's Incarceration: The Global Context 2025 Women's incarceration in every region of the United States is out of step with the rest of the world.

Today's fun fact: if "blue" "progressive" Maryland was a country, we would incarcerate more women per capita than 153 countries, including Canada, China, Argentina, and Venezuela, and would be tied with the Russian Federation. #TheMoreYouKnow www.prisonpolicy.org/global/women...

A New Domestic Violence Hotline Aims to Stop People From Doing Harm “Being able to talk someone off the ledge, I think it would prevent a lot of cases like mine,” one man said.

Preventing harm before it happens, providing safe and non-judgmental spaces in which people who are considering harm can get help without requiring them to be criminalized--this is exactly the kind of thing we should be doing, and House of Ruth is doing it in Maryland.

Federal EITC Has Unexpected Result, Researchers Say – It Decreases Domestic Violence - UConn Today 'Even if you don’t care about the human value of reducing this, there are efficiency gains in handling it more effectively - and I think most of us do ...

I mean, I expected this result. Economic security decreases intimate partner violence. Give money to the people that need it-not to police and prisons. #AbolitionFeminismNow

Ain't We Women, Too? For many incarcerated women, the state is their abuser, but the gender-based violence we experience behind bars goes ignored.

"The violence we experience inside is not a different or separate kind of violence. It is gender-based violence, and it's enabled by your silence. So let me ask again: Ain't I a woman? And if I am, then where are you?" My brilliant friend, @kwanetaharris.bsky.social:

Everyone needs to be talking about this.

Prairieland ICE shooting trial jury gets closer look at 'antifa' materials defendants owned Anti-fascism, anarchy and the abolition of ICE were common themes in literature and paraphernalia investigators found in the defendants' homes and cars.

“Zines are really like this little atomic unit of freedom of the press with simple pamphlets that you just pass around. It begs the question of whether the prosecution believes that we should have a First Amendment in the first place” #ZinesAreNotACrime
—Lydia Koza, wife of defendant Autumn Hill

All of Rosa's writings were destroyed by fascist.

One benefit of living in our time is I am confident that the geeks and anarchists will digitally archive all the words of revolution. Even if our internet is censored radical materials will still be disseminated via irc and zines 💾📚✊

There were no consequences for anyone who lied about WMD to start an illegal war in Iraq. People like me said that it mattered. People who were Very Serious and Important said that it didn’t matter. Surely only great statesmen would lie about south a thing. Here we are.
