14th death that outside observers could prove in facilities that don't allow outside observers.

I just don't know how, given ALL we know about what concentration camps inevitably lead to, this can just happen yet another time. It's hard to wake up and go to work knowing there are people on this same soil having their souls removed piece by piece.

Is it r***? Or are the teenage girls independently “testing positive for pregnancy?” /S

trickygringo Mar 31, 2026 +5
They only test positive if they wanted it. Republican Representative Todd Akin educated all of us that, "If it's a legitimate r***, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down."

Oh yeah, I’d forgotten about that. Maybe the teenagers being raped in detention centers haven’t developed that magic ability, yet.

They've been sued by ACLU multiple times for patient dumping, which is releasing people right before they die. They try to get ahead of the lawsuits by not keeping any documentation of medical complaints, so it's become so disorganized that people are dying in custody.

They have been refusing to keep any paperwork on healthy people they are detaining. People just f****** disappear.

We KNOW at least 1300 have gone missing from Alligator Alcatraz and some estimates put it at 2500. Where are they? Probably dead. Nazi USA is in full swing.

Philophon Mar 31, 2026 +19
Not to mention the deaths they have caused through trafficking. I read an article a month or so ago where some women who were trafficked to a third country were found decapitated by the local police. Not necessarily saying ICE did it themselves, but the blood is on their hands nonetheless. Apparently it is a criminal strategy in these countries we are sending people to to capture the arrivals in order to extort money from people who have family still living in the US. Needless to say, those people probably don't have a great survival rate.

> Jose Guadalupe Ramos, who was being held at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center, was found unconscious and unresponsive in his bunk by security staff, ​ICE said in a press release. The staff called on-site medical ​personnel and he was transferred to an area hospital where he ⁠was declared dead, ICE said. I don't like being from the country that is doing this. We need new leadership.

They know, should they ever lose real power (without Democrats there to bail them out) they're all going to prison just for the things from his first term. I honestly believe there's going to be things from this second term that could legally end up with some of them on the end of a rope, and I honestly believe that's why they'll never scede power voluntarily.

They're leaving it up so that when trump declares martial law he can have public executions for people who protest, and claim the law is on their side. They've been signaling this since his first term with the talking about protesters as terrorists and rioters.

Propaganda is a strong tool. There's big money building up those fears using mass media and AI fueled astroturfing campaigns. Because if you look at the policy and understand that they primarily benefit these sociopathic billionaires and weapons manufacturers, nowhere near enough people would vote for them. So they have to create a problem out of thin air and offer a solution. "Simple" folk don't have the political capacity to understand what's really going on, they just get swindled and manipulated. It's easy to hate on them, but it's better to be mad at the people who dump billions of dollars into manufacturing an electorate.

this underlying rot of apathy and xenophobia has existed since the before foundation of the US. It's a long line of values passed down from generation to generation. It may not appear like it, because the deplorables and crazies are currently in power, but the reality is that apathy and xenophobia in the US was never lower than nowadays. What we are seeing is just the rot that broke through but was always there. Don't forget, all that social progress like woman's righs, civil rights for minorities, gay acceptance etc, are recent developments that happened within a human lifetime. You think these people just accepted those changes? they just begrudgingly kept silent in public. for example, just because people had stopped using the N-word in public, you liked to believe racism was no more. You couldn't have been more wrong. All liberals had managed was to make them keep quiet in public, out of fear society may judge them. Hollywood movies gave them the impression that people had to act more tolerant than they actually were and that acting racist was now a taboo. Die that get rid of racism? Hell no, they just kept mostly to themselves. But with Fox News, the shitty people finally had a news network that said what they were thinking, which is why they love watching it, not because they have some brainwashing technology. Witch the internet more of them found together anonymously, then with social media like facebook they showed their faces while spreading their shitty thoughts and values, realizing they aren't alone after all, starting to believe themselves to be the "silent majority". And then came Trump, he exploited their frustration with liberals and others, built ontop of the foundation laid by fox news and internet rightwingers and he won. Not because Americans have become more rotten, it hasn't, All Trump did was to rip the bandaid and reveal what was always beneath. Every action has an opposite reaction. What we are seeing from the right is the reaction to all the social progress. In their eyes liberals are going too far. So when progressives wanted trans acceptance like they had achieved gay acceptance, the rightwingers snapped back. Fox News, paired with rightwing internet activity and finally Trump just emboldened them to crawl out from under the rocks they hid this whole time. Compared to the past, Americans are more liberal and progressive than ever before. However, that is also why so many liberals and progressives who live in their own bubbles hadn't realized how conservative and regressive so many of their fellow countrymen and countrywomen truly are.

It is way, way worse than this. They are targeting American citizens. My wife was born in the United States and she was still racially profiled and detained by ICE. She had ID, which they claimed was fake. She was just minding her own business walking to work and they stopped her because she isn’t a white woman. This has happened to hundreds of American citizens so far. And that’s just the documented cases. I don’t need to point out the OBVIOUS historical analog here, do I? I pretty much have zero hope that the US will come out of this as the same nation we knew before it.

Kabbooooooom Mar 31, 2026 +2
Yes. And during World War II with Japanese Americans. The difference now is that we have a genuine autocrat in power in the United States, who has created a fascist pseudo police force to carry out his whims in broad daylight in the streets of our nation, and his cultlike followers have *completely* absorbed an entire political party and control basically every arm of the government as well as the Supreme Court. Something like *this* has never happened before. Not in the United States, at least. Those historical incidents were terrible, but we are looking back on them now as the some of the worst transgressions of those eras. We haven’t seen the worst yet with Trump. Not even close. I think a lot of people are so shocked by what has happened so far since Trump was elected that they are lulling themselves into a false sense of security, believing that it couldn’t get worse. Oh, it can, and it absolutely will.  I think when more people have their families personally affected by this regime, like I did, they will finally wake up.

A Mexican immigrant died in ICE custody in Los Angeles on March 25, ICE said on Monday. This marks at least 14 ‌deaths in ICE custody in 2026. Jose Guadalupe Ramos was found unconscious and unresponsive in his bunk. He had medical issues, including diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension. Ramos was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.

We are currently tracking at a higher rate of detainee death than in 2025 (4.7/month in 2026 compared to 2.7/month in 2025). >Last year also set records for deaths in ICE custody: 32 people died in the agency’s custody in 2025, nearly three times the number of deaths in 2024 and the most since 2004, according to a report by The Guardian. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2026/jan/04/ice-2025-deaths-timeline ~~If we measure deaths per 100,000, then the rate of death (32 deaths / 70,000 detainees) is 46 per 100,000~~ >If you have (on average) [36k people detained per month](https://tracreports.org/immigration/detentionstats/pop_agen_table.html) then your exposure is 36k * 12 = 432,000 for a full year. >that would get you a per 100k rate of like 7.4. so lower than during the pandemic, but higher than immediately post-pandemic. >alternatively, you could just month-ify your death counts; 32/12 = 2.66 per 36k monthly exposure equates to 7.4 per 100k - credti: u/rdstrmfblynch79 Compared to: >The death rate per 100,000 admissions in ICE detention was 3.251 in FY2021, 0.939 in FY2022, and 1.457 in FY2023, compared with a pandemic-era high of 10.833 in FY2020. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38617414/ ~~Thats over 400% of the detainee death per capita that we have seen since the pandemic! For context, you are 3x more likely to die in ICE detainment than you are to die of the leading cause of death anywhere else ([heart disease](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_causes_of_death_by_rate)).~~

rdstrmfblynch79 Mar 31, 2026 +3
careful.... 32 deaths happened **over a year** but your calc is based on an exposure of the number of detainees **per month**. if you have (on average) [36k people detained per month](https://tracreports.org/immigration/detentionstats/pop_agen_table.html) then your exposure is 36k * 12 = 432,000 for a full year. that would get you a per 100k rate of like 7.4. so lower than during the pandemic, but higher than immediately post-pandemic. alternatively, you could just month-ify your death counts; 32/12 = 2.66 per 36k monthly exposure equates to 7.4 per 100k

[Concentration Camps, 1933–39](https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/concentration-camps-1933-39) During the first six years of the Nazi regime, thousands of Germans were detained or confined extra-legally. The conditions were usually harsh and there was no regard to the legal norms of arrest and imprisonment of a constitutional democracy. 1. Nazi officials established the first concentration camp, Dachau, on March 22, 1933, for political prisoners. It was later used as a model for an expanded and centralized concentration camp system managed by the SS. 2. What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process. 3. The major purpose of the earliest concentration camps during the 1930s was to imprison and intimidate the leaders of political, social, and cultural movements that the Nazis perceived to be a threat to the survival of the regime.

I don't think you understand that this is what these people want? You honestly think they don't sit at their diner table and say "he probably deserved it, maybe if they didn't arrest him he'd be selling drugs or something,"  There was a recent video in social media going around about a white elder lady typing to someone that she didn't know how Hispanics could afford the basketball ticket. It's like it offends them latinos can save money and afford some of the luxuries they could, and that pisses them off. This is what they want, they do not want aid, they want others to feel more miserable than they do so they feel superior.

Certain_Luck_8266 Mar 31, 2026 +2
Not to be that guy, but looking at mortality rates, this isn't a significant number. Since there are 73K currently in custody over 1/4 of a year, 14 deaths correlates to a natural rate of 76 deaths per year. Seeing as the median age of detainees is 28-39 years old, incarceration has no relevant statistical effect on death rate. 1–4 years: 25 per 100,000 5–14 years: 14 per 100,000 15–24 years: 66 per 100,000 25–34 years: 124 per 100,000 35–44 years: 213 per 100,000 45–49 years: 338 per 100,000

And this is just the ones they admitted, because they couldn’t hide it. Mark my words - it will come out that there have been rapes and murders at these facilities, in addition to deaths by neglect. I would literally bet money on it. People who work for ICE are the scum of the earth and they have zero oversight and zero consequences. It’s the Stanford Prison Study amped up to 11 and rolled out across the entire nation.
