UK government’s deal
Google wants to keep the UK government's personal data on Google
servers
located in the US.
Both of those aspects of this deal are foolish. The government should
not generally trust any company, or any other government, with that
data. Any requested exceptions ought to be judged carefully.

Disaster funds
*DeMentis under fire for using disaster funds to build
[Alligator
Alcatraz deportation jail].*
And some of the contracts went go his cronies.
One might speculate that skimping on humans treatment of the prisoners
saved the public money. But I doubt that is true. I expect that
the money saved by this cruelty went to the cronies.

Emil Bove
Senate Republicans demonstrated their support for allowing the saboteur
in chief to order his henchmen to violate court orders, by trying to

orders issued by him
would not have to be obeyed.

ICE & Outsourcing
The deportation thugs lease lots of private prisons and
private thugs, and is using
ever more of them now.
Privatized prisons are inherently unjust because they profit by giving
prisoners spoiled food, ruined clothing, barely working toilets and
too few of those, and grudging medical treatment. Some prisoners die
from that; a larger number are mentally scarred.
Privatized
prisons should be prohibited entirely.
