Today, the Trump regime is urging red states to build their own concentration camps and he’s going to send them your tax dollars to do it; the Wall Street Journal editorial board is weighing in on the Epstein saga; a Department of Justice inspector general report exposes the harmful use of restraints in prisons; the Supreme Court without explanation from the shadow docket has decided to allow Trump to flout Congress and dismantle the Department of Education; and the Miami Herald has obtained a list of the 700 detainees at the Florida concentration camp. Allison and Dana deliver the good news.

Good Trouble:
The migrant detention facility known as Alligator Alcatraz in the Florida Everglades is detaining nearly 750 individuals — many of whom are nonviolent and have committed no crimes beyond immigration violations. Conditions have been reported as inhumane, including:

- Intense heat and no proper shelter

- Overcrowding in wire cages, up to 32 per cell

- Inadequate sanitation and hygiene

- Worm-infested food and 24-hour lights disrupting sleep cycles

- No hurricane evacuation plan despite storm threats

Critically, many detainees are foreign nationals — from ICC member states like Mexico, Guatemala, and Cuba — opening a window for International Criminal Court jurisdiction to prosecute individual actors for crimes against humanity.

“Under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, the Office of the Prosecutor (“OTP”) may analyse information on alleged crimes within the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and aggression), submitted to it from any source”.
