Excellent thread. In short, ICE appears to have outsourced its sexual assault hotline for people in detention to a random call center that doesn’t give any simple way to report a sexual assault and also only operates in English and Spanish.
ICE's poster for reporting sexual abuse and assault misleadingly includes the phrase "Report Sexual Assault Now" in eight different languages, while the number people are directed to call has no option for callers to communicate in languages other than English and Spanish. /9
It's wild and telling that ICE's posters for migrants to report sexual assaults in detention send them to a number with no menu option for reporting sexual assault. /7

So... I'm actually pretty fine with my tax dollars saving the life of someone who's bleeding out on the emergency room floor. I think that's a good idea.
For I know how many are your transgressions, and how great are your sins— you who afflict the righteous, who take a bribe, and push aside the needy in the gate…
I hate, I despise your festivals, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies…
Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps.
But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

Alligator Alcatraz was built in 8 days
It took just over a week to create a massive concentration camp
Remember this the next time those in power claim they can't house the homeless, feed the starving or provide medical care to the poor
They can, they don't want to
