YouTube Description
as posted by the channelTwo confirmed measles cases at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas — the only active ICE family detention facility in the country — has triggered quarantine measures and exposed a humanitarian disaster.
Inside Dilley: 1,200 detainees, including 400+ children and a 2-month-old infant. Poor hygiene. Limited medical capacity. Overcrowding. And now, a highly contagious disease spreading through a facility where people are held on civil immigration charges — not criminal convictions.
In this video, I break down:
– What's actually happening inside the Dilley ICE jail right now
– Why family detention shouldn't exist in the first place
– How Trump's immigration policy creates the conditions for disease outbreaks
– What Rep. Joaquin Castro is demanding (and why it matters)
– The broader context: 2,200+ measles cases nationwide in 2025
This is what "tough on immigration" looks like in practice. And it's a public health nightmare.
