Thank You for bringing to our attention El Paso Concentration Camp and for naming the organizations that are supporting and advocating for immigrants in El Paso. We need this information.

A billion dollars for tents in the desert, water trucked in daily, one iPad for thousands, emergency calls, quarantine, deaths, and somehow the official story still expects us to call this “detention” instead of what it is. The cruelty is not hidden. It is floodlit. That may be the most American horror of all: build the camp in plain sight and trust the public to keep scrolling. The crosses outside Camp East Montana are not metaphors. They are names. And if a nation can spend $1.2 billion to cage people in tents, it can afford to stop pretending this is anything but policy violence with a purchase order.

Ellen MHa's avatar

The 1.2 billion wasn't spent on that tent city. Only a few hundred thousand dollars were. The rest got stolen by government contractors and government employees.

Inhumanity on the menu ... disgusting, reprehensible, morally repugnant

So truly articulated … and much appreciated, admirable & the morality & ethics so nicely applicable! It’s a lot of the more important lessons that our failing unfit President missed growing up so deeply self-absorbent oppositional to all authority beginning from birth I cannot begin to imagine what his mother had to go through with all the defiant behaviors. That young children are born into starting off so young with ADHD behaviors and no treatment for them medication wise in the later 1946 days. It’s horrendous having someone in your household family trying to manage these type illnesses mentally. Always eruptive and disturbing to everyone around them. I would’ve felt horrible for any brothers and sisters that were close by. Donald didn’t behave then and he’s not behaving well now he is well within the realm of needing serious help away from that office of president and yet Congress has no clue about how to handle it. What to say to him that won’t set them off and it’s affecting the whole damn world. It is a contagion.

📣AT THIS POINT IN TIME WE CAN SAY CLEARLY THAT WE ARE IN THE THROWS OF A SERIOUS “Mental Illness PANDEMIC” ⚡️because the GLOBAL COMMUNITY SEES THE REALITY OF ABNORMAL TRUMP⚡️ … yet TRUMP’S OWN MAGA CONGRESS, NOR HIS ADMINISTRATION & neither can anyone in his CABINET. THE PEOPLE THAT SURROUND THE PRESIDENT 24/7/365 are not specialists in medicine, mental illness or wellness, nor how to deal with the TRUMP UNFITNESS TO SAFELY HOLD OR FUNCTION IN THE DEMANDING JOB OF PRESIDENT.

WE HAVE ALL GLOBALLY EXPERIENCED A 100 year Corona Virus 🦠 DEADLY PANDEMIC WE WERE NOT PREPARED FOR UNDER ILL PREPARED NOVICE PRESIDENT TRUMP … and under NOVICE TRUMP HE BROADCAST “STAND BY and STAND DOWN” to his nationwide what EVENTUALLY became his ARMED MILITIA HE DID SUMMON THAT MOBB TO ATTACK THE U.S. CAPITAL TO STOP THE VERIFICATION O THE 2020 ELECTION THAT TRUMP CONTINUES TO DENY JOE BIDEN/KAMALA HARRIS TRULY DID WIN LEGITIMATELY TSUNAMI STYLE WHOM WE CAN CREDIT FOR TURNING THE COVID 19 VIRUS TO A WELCOMED CONCLUSION …

We all were absolutely witness to the J6, 2021 TRUMP ARRANGED & COORDINATED, SUPPORTED MONEY, TRANSPORTATION, HOTELS & EXPRESSED “LOVE” to all his summoned MILITIA COUP ATTACK … TRUMP’S GOAL: to remain in office as PRESIDENT & send the real 2020 ELECTION GENUIE WINNERS HOME. OFFICERS & civilians did die in this Trump arranged attack. Trump’s results by jury trial “GUILTY - on all 34 Counts, sexual abuse, and he has an PRISON INMATE # P01135809 …yet AMERICA 🇺🇸 MAGA’S CONSTITUENTS WRONGLY VOTED TRUMP IN FOR A 2nd term on fake and false claims , promises, lies & conspiracy theories of twists and tricks and about faces, manipulations and fraudulent behaviors of ABNORMAL GOVERNANCE OF TREASONOUS, TRAITOR RIPPING UP OF THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, IGNORING EVERY LAW & order & pursued only confusion and chaos full bore PURPOSELY. FULL AMERICAN BETRAYAL TURNING ON HIS OWN COUNTRY. YOU CAN GOOGLE ALL OR ANY OF TRUMP’S COURT LOSSES.

DONALD TRUMP IS LITERALLY & very seriously off the wall heavily challenged physically, mentally, emotionally-mood swings, sleep deprived, with cumulative systemic complexities. All of which require specialties in those areas. If Donald Trump continues as is … we all saw what happened the other night when he went into a rage suddenly got up and had to leave an interview because he couldn’t answer the questions legitimately posed. He is preconditioned all his life to lie to cheat to steal the bully & mock, to betray his own country and on, and on, and on.This (man’s needs our beyond-beyond) anything that Congress can do anything about …so they sit idle and stumped, not taking any action to get the commander-in-chief the help that he needs desperately LURKS & LOOMS. Time is of the essence of time that we are losing … that we will never get back!⏰🚨‼️🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩📣📣📣⚡️⚡️⚡️🗽🦅🗳️🔔⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️🙏🙋‍♀️🙋🏼🧑‍🧑‍🧒👨

A majority of Congress supports this.

Ellen MHa's avatar

I'm thinking our government is more like the US branch of Zionaziland. I know the US congress is rebranded the US Knesset.

CK's avatar

During the past 130-140 years (approximately), wealthy Zionists have exerted their influence upon the governments of the UK and USA, the London Stock Exchange and Wall Street. The UK created Israel for several reasons. One was to control access to oil in Palestine and the Middle East. Another was to have a military staging area to control seagoing transportation to India and China. Yet another was to encourage Jews to have somewhere to go beside ls the UK.

By the year 1948, the UK could no longer afford to defend Israel, so the US government took on that strategic role.

As for Nazis, several prominent Americans and US corporations supported Hitler before and during WWII. They may have been Zionists. Zionists are not Jews but some my pretend to be.

All in response to illegal immigration’s

Ellen MHa's avatar

No, it's that this Country was transferred over to a group of Eugenicists that have been milking the State and Federal government for long enough to simply take it over from an entirely corrupt ConKnessent and US Administration. Yes, they are in league with the other corrupt ZioBranch of the USCorp and they are the actual Eugenic administration. The Techno idiots finally have the deeds and personal access on each and every taxpayers and of the corrupt US government. They will do as they believe. Making profit from ridding this country of those that don't pass their eugenics parameters, which explains the horrible DHS and it's policies. The TechnoZionists are cancelling human rights laws, consumer protection laws, crimes against humanity laws (mostly because they are loving genocides to tweak their evil computer systems on) and even ecological laws that would normally benefit them and their spawn. Truly they believe they are now the masters of the universe.

"I know this sounds 'out there', but I had just woken up this AM to this concept making sense of why there is Police Brutality in nearly every country they and the Zionists have touched." You have to see that Zionists, US Federalists and Technocrats-Corporatists have beliefs and self-worship in common. Beliefs that blind most humans to what's best for common well being, even their own..

Lisa, Thank you for coming to El Paso, witnessing and writing about this. With your platform, you have the ability to educate more Americans about this horrendous, inhumane situation happening in our name with our money. It needs to end, and hopefully, as more people become aware of just how dire this situation is in the middle of the desert, there will be an outcry.

Christi Brown's avatar

For profit concentration camps built by our tax dollars is or seems illegal. Trump his administration most republicans and some democrats have done this and somehow We the People absolutely must stop this with protest, legal filings and voting for the politicians that take zero pac monies work with grassroots support it will take every one of us to get involved.

Ellen MHa's avatar

You know that that atrocity didn't cost 1.2 Billion dollars to put up some tents. They didn't even put in plumbing and a communications network. One iPad, tanks of potable water, tents and no suitable roofs and most likely more that was not done. That tells me this is a typical corporate/government ripoff of taxpayers. Of course, this Zionist approach to humans is something we would never approve of. The policies are policies of cruelty and human atrocities this failed government has no right to create and adhere to.

CK's avatar

Where is that “well regulated militia” that’s mentioned in the Bill of Rights?

Ellen MHa's avatar

Working for the Corporate Human Rights Criminals. That's what usually happens with shits that just wanted exclusivity for shits that think(more like react) like them. After the Nazis had the German government in hand they shot the Brown Shirts (Proud Boys etc.)

Robin's avatar

Thank you for sharing your experience, a lot of people think the worst ice incidents happen in the North b/c that’s what makes the news but these giant tent camps purposely pop up in the most inhumane places like the the Fl Everglades and Tx desert and very much effect the state’s residents and immigrants without a single story/death/kidnapping making national news.

Thank you for bearing witness

Laura Pizzicara's avatar

If “trump the Sadist” is in charge, one can expect more of the same. I hope that trump either: 1. Gets arrested 2. Croaks 3. Has to stand trial for ALL of his crimes against our Nation and Humanity. Any of the 3 choices are applicable for me….

Kathryn Ruiz's avatar

Thank you for this article- the situation is atrocious. I just donated to Las Americas which i would not have known about but for your exceptional reporting.

Lisa Gonzalez's avatar

That’s amazing. Thanks so very much Kathryn. That’s a very worthy cause, and I am sure it will be put to very good use to help people who need it the most.

Sadie Smolensk's avatar

Thank you, Lisa. It is important that ALL Americans know what is going on in our country. However, this can only happen with coverage via news services, though most have been shut down or converted to right wing propaganda outlets. Knowing is good, but action is better. Congress MUST make it a priority to shut down these Concentration Camps. They should not be part of what ICE was intended to accomplish. All of this traces back to Stephen Miller who seems to exist under the radar and out of the spotlight. WE ARE NOT NAZI GERMANY!!!

Cait Coleman's avatar

Yes we are nazi germany now. an ice person was caught taking a 10,000 camera home. He didn’t know it had a tracking device. How many detainees are having their money and possessions stolen from ice. This is the gold teeth, jewelry, art, that Nazis took

CK's avatar

Many Americans are the “good Germans”.

M.Wilson's avatar

How many republicans are hiding in their stock portfolio an innocuous sounding Corp that's operating these detention camps.

Ellen MHa's avatar

Please don't forget Democracts. They are, while not entirely, just as likely to hold stocks in any criminality. Criminality in the US is not exclusive to the Republican party.

M.Wilson's avatar

Oh Dems aren't all angels. Forget decorum and tryind to be diplomatic. Nothing about most Republican congress actions hasn't been fair for decades and every bit of mud slinging is deserved.

It's illogical to tear apart the only safe haven you have for a defence, when the Barbarians are over running the village.

Stephen Miller is our Lex Luther!

Patricia Pacheco's avatar

I like that you added local advocacy groups to the national human Rights Groups and a protests groups.

I find problems trying to support what is happening in Palestine and that Middle East

with some donations but am concerned about money being stolen!!?

Carla Bigum's avatar

Man, more information about ICE operations not being reported on the national level. Thank you!

Excellent reporting!
