Yesterday a judge ordered ICE to improve conditions in holding cells at ICE's field office in NYC. It's a good decision, yet many of the responses here are along the lines of "none of this matters" or "they'll just ignore this." Those responses are wrong. Here's a quick thread on why.
HUGE. The first major court victory involving conditions of confinement at ICE field offices. The judge bars detention in any cell which isn't:
- Restricted by capacity
- Has mats for people to sleep on overnight
- Is cleaned 3 times a day
- Provides hygiene supplies
- Offers free legal calls

here’s a whole thread about when brian kemp did this. he’s a monster for this and so many other things and this is how the press handles “forced menopause, detransition, & endemic gender based rape and violence used as part of punishment.”
they call it “culture war.”
so, beyond “this is horrific” & “trans healthcare isn’t a luxury, it’s lifesaving & if you can deny it to inmates you can deny it to anyone.”
- this article uses the phrase “culture war” 3 times in 389 words. would “governor denies inmates [any other kind of healthcare] be a culture war issue?🧵
