What's not making headlines in the #border deal is the implied major expansion of #immigration detention capacity. AKA building prisons.

If you're not familiar with our immigration #detention system, it's a civil system, meant to be an administrative hold for application processing and hearing.

In practice: imprisonment in terrible conditions, sometimes indefinitely, with little access to counsel and few rights. It is sibling to our private #prison industry.
