YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

As the Trump administration hurries to deport millions of migrants, private prison companies like CoreCivic and Geo Group stand to profit. With immigration crackdowns becoming more regular and more aggressive, new ICE detention and deportation facilities are being built across the country. Their financial well-being is often put ahead of federal security or immigration concerns. This video explores the controversial world of for-profit prisons and private jails, examining how federal contracts incentivize immigrant detention.
