To read the 337-page transcript of Ghislaine Maxwell’s interview with the Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, is to be horrified, even enraged, by Maxwell’s brazen airbrushing of her conduct, and by Blanche’s placid acceptance of her rendition of events.

The extent to which ICE is ignoring all civil rights and due process is astounding — and indicative of a culture where they’ve been told they can do literally no wrong. Agency and admin leaders must face sanctions and legal consequences.

The Trump Administration is spending $1.2 billion to turn a WWII internment site into the nation’s largest ICE detention facility. It’s the same cruelty that Japanese Americans faced, just under a new brand. Our country—and everyone who calls it home—deserves better.
