Why isn't anyone exposing the companies that are being paid by the Trump admin to imprison kids?

I want them exposed. Are they so addicted to sponging up govt contracts that they think this is a good idea? They really want to make money off of this? When one of these kids has a health issue or gets hurt, they'll catch the blame. Are they thinking about that?

Expose them. Let their CEOs and boards try to justify this practice. They shouldn't get away with it.

And these will be "connected" companies. But the shock of the actual facts of the matter of imprisonment have to be understood by the entire country...

That said, I have written elsewhere that other countries should take note of all news reports that mention the names of people involved in this, from government officials to government employees to contractors, and put them on their own no fly, do not enter, or terrorist watch lists. The people behind this and putting this into action are committing human rights abuses.

must be made aware... whether they're employees, contractors, suppliers or any other kind of enabler of these atrocious crimes against children - they will be held to account. Oh yeah, they definitely will.

The people running this miserable place make $1,000,000 per year. Coming right out of our pockets.

Makes me sick.
