EARLY IN PERSON VOTING AND REGISTRATION. STARTS

 

Russia Russia Russia was NOT a HOAX

 

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!. 

Your kids might be subject to the draft and continual wars if congress and the people don't stop Trump and his greedy cronies from making deals against us, against Ukraine in order to enrich themselves.

The feds have zero foreign policy exceed GREED justifies everything.

Our amazing patriot friend Heather explains in 7 minutes.  

We keep up with Heather's amazing insights using this link to Youtube.  We check her latest content.  Possibly there are repeats between 

• Letters from an American
• Political chats
• What the Heck
• American Conversations
• Explainers

Tim Snyder also explains the problem.  THERE ARE A TON OF RISKS FOR AMERICANS.  A short video summary is here

In his Substack writings (such as "Trump's Big Lie about Ukraine" and "Thanking Ukrainians"), historian Timothy Snyder argues that Ukraine provides critical contributions to American and global security, freedom, and stability: [1, 2, 3]

• Holding off aggression and buying time: Ukrainians have absorbed and halted a full-scale Russian attack, fulfilling the core mission of NATO by themselves and preventing a worse geopolitical collapse. [1, 2]
Battlefield intelligence and military experience: Ukraine has shared ongoing battlefield intelligence and modern warfare experience with American and Western institutions. [1]
Direct defense of allies: Ukrainian air defense troops have been deployed to help protect Americans and their allies from threats like Iranian drones. [1]
Deterrence in the Pacific: By demonstrating the massive difficulty and cost of a large-scale invasion, Ukraine's resistance acts as a deterrent against potential Chinese offensives in the Pacific. [1]
Defending an international rules-based order: Their fight preserves the framework of international law and reality-based politics against authoritarian propaganda and territorial revisionism. [1, 2, 3]
An example of freedom: Even under the extreme strain of war, Ukraine maintains a functioning civil society, open expression, and democratic resilience in stark contrast to the destruction of life and liberty under Russian occupation. [1]

Stay call.  

We suggest that you follow Tim Snyder's substack for the best insights.

Another insight:

THE U.S.A. is committing "superpower suicide".  

PLUS GOP congress is cheering it on and enabling it by not impeaching him or stopping it.

and CORRECT ISSUES if they arise.

Let’s VOTE in every race.

Please learn about our candidates using vote411.org

• When a candidate answers questions in this voter guide- 

• it indicates that they CARE ABOUT us voters.  

• Many candidates did not bother to respond to the league of women voters.  

PLEASE vote on AMENDMENTS A AND B.   

Non-partisan, pro-voter groups report that BOTH A and B are 

ANTI-DEMOCRATIC AND ANTI-VOTER.

• Amendments A proposes to HIDE vital info from us voters on obscure government web sites. 

• Amendment B keeps simple-majority-rule for the legislature,

• But demands 60% approval if voters initiate a law. 

Our votes are a precious AND powerful thing. 

Why else is so much money and effort being spent on suppressing and subverting OUR VOTE?

A fellow lover of voting and democracy

Utah has a democracy warrior- Lt Governor Deirde Henderson.

Gemini summary for this question: 

"For-profit prisons of Trump's mass deportation machine- 2026 update".

For-profit prison operators CoreCivic and The GEO Group have seen massive financial growth and expansion under the Trump administration's mass deportation and detention machinery in 2026, driven by billions in federal funding and record-high detention numbers. [1, 2, 3]

Financial and Revenue Surges

CoreCivic: Revenue grew by more than 27% year-over-year, with ICE-specific revenue surging over 50% as the company negotiated higher daily detention rates and housed a growing detainee population (up nearly 18% since April 2026). CoreCivic also sold four lockups in California, Minnesota, and Kansas to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for $2.2 billion, while continuing to manage them. [1]
GEO Group: Earned nearly $90 million from the Moshannon Valley Processing Center (MVPC) in Pennsylvania alone between January 2025 and mid-2026, and reported a 13% to record revenue boost as it signed multiple new ICE contracts and pursued facility expansions. [1, 2]

Detention Capacity and Infrastructure Expansion

Record Population: The number of people held in ICE detention has ballooned to around 70,000–73,000 people (up from roughly 40,000 when the administration took office), with plans to scale past 100,000+ beds. [1, 2, 3]
Warehouse and Facility Conversions: Fueled by a $45 billion detention funding boost from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, ICE has purchased and converted major warehouse spaces and idled federal prisons (such as plans to reopen the Rivers Correctional Facility in North Carolina via GEO Group) into high-capacity detention camps in states like Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. [1, 2, 3]
Local Law Enforcement Integration: The number of active 287(g) agreements—which deputize local and state police to enforce federal immigration laws—expanded dramatically from 135 to nearly 2,600 counties across the U.S.. [1]

Oversight and Human Rights Concerns

Custody Deaths and Conditions: Civil rights groups, the ACLU, and lawmakers have raised alarms over deteriorating conditions, medical neglect, and a sharp spike in deaths inside detention facilities (with over 50 deaths recorded since the start of the administration). [1, 2]
Deportation Flights and Surveillance: Private contractors like CSI Aviation and Global X have operated thousands of domestic transfer and deportation flights, while tech and biometrics firms (such as BI2 Technologies) have expanded contracts for mobile tracking and iris-scanning databases. [1, 2]

Source:  Guardian. the original is an interactive graphic.  NOTE that outrage from the public in winter 2026 ended up causing the major decline in detentions of children.  

The number of children kidnapped, tortured, abused and deported is still completely unacceptable.

Medical Neglect: Legal groups like RAICES filed over 1,400 complaints regarding medical services between 2025 and 2026. Reports indicate extensive delays in treating acute illnesses, with staff frequently administering only over-the-counter pain relievers (like Tylenol) for severe ailments. [1]
Inadequate Nutrition: Detainees have reported scarce clean drinking water and non-child-friendly food, with multiple families alleging they were served food contaminated with mold, resulting in chronic gastrointestinal illness among toddlers. [1, 2, 3]
Severe Psychological Distress: Sworn parent declarations describe children exhibiting regressive behaviors, including severe sleep disturbances due to 24-hour facility lighting, nail-biting, bed-wetting, extreme anxiety, and expressions of self-harm. [1, 2]
Interrupted Education: Schooling inside the centers consists of highly restricted, one-hour daily classes capped at small groups, relying mostly on basic worksheets, causing children to fall significantly behind. [1]

⚖️ Legal Protections and Case Outcomes

The legal trajectory of children entering DHS custody generally follows one of three outcomes:

Outcome	Description / Status (2025–2026)
Prolonged Detention	Despite the historical 20-day standard set by the Flores settlement agreement, over 1,600 children have been detained for extended periods, with dozens held for over 80 days. In August 2026, federal judges ordered independent monitors to oversee ICE custody lengths and medical care.
Deportation	Data shows that roughly 54% of child releases from ICE detention end with the child being formally deported.

Query: "Expose the For-profit prisons of Trump and Miller-Noem-WayneMullin's mass deportation machine- 2026 update. Provide their profits."

• CoreCivic and GEO Group, America’s two largest private prison operators, reported a combined $1.4 billion in revenue in a single quarter of 2026 as immigration detentions climbed toward record levels. Fueled by the administration's mass deportation framework—orchestrated by Stephen Miller, former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and her successor Markwayne Mullin—the private prison industry has seen unprecedented windfalls.

  Critics and independent watchdog groups point to a heavily criticized "revolving door" between these corporations and the federal government, raising concerns about policy being driven by corporate financial interests.

  2026 Corporate Revenue & Financial Windfalls

  The financial metrics disclosed during mid-2026 corporate earnings calls show substantial growth driven by federal immigration enforcement contracts:

  Corporation	2026 Quarterly Revenue	Year-Over-Year Growth	Core Revenue Drivers & Strategy
  GEO Group	$732.1 Million	⬆️ 15% (~$96M increase)	Expanded ICE contracts, electronic ankle monitoring systems (ISAP), and direct transportation services.
  CoreCivic	$684.9 Million	⬆️ 27%	Lowered operating costs per facility, scaling up transportation fleets (buses/vans), and a $1.6B sale of four facilities to DHS.

  Note: In addition to standard quarterly revenues, CoreCivic brought in $1.6 billion in net proceeds from selling four facilities to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), banking an average of $307,000 per bed while maintaining agreements to continue operating them.
