In the first four months of the new Trump administration, solitary confinement spiked in illegal immigration detention. Really!

How phony is that claim! Some of the detained immigrants are criminals (incl. dangerous ones)!

They won't tell you how many of all detainees were held in solitary confinement and for how long! That is the way propaganda and demagoguery works!

Of course, there was such a spike since the senile, demented and corrupt 46th President completely failed to protect the borders of the US from the invasion of illegal immigrants! Almost any 47th President (D or R) would have had to correct that immediately.

"The early months of President Donald Trump’s second term saw an immigration crackdown not just on the streets, but inside detention center walls. A new report by Physicians for Human Rights and experts at Harvard reveals that under the first four months of the new administration, solitary confinement spiked in immigration detention.

The findings uphold a pattern the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists first documented over six years ago: that the U.S. Homeland Security Department’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency consistently misused and overused solitary confinement to isolate thousands of their most vulnerable immigrant detainees for weeks and months at a time. 

The practice has continued across both Biden and Trump’s administrations; over the course of a 14-month period, the report found that more than 10,000 people were placed in solitary confinement in detention facilities run by ICE [that is only less than 800 per year. What is the fuss about?].

But the experts’ analysis of public data identified a noticeable spike in the first few months of the Trump administration. ..."

"... Follow-up reporting in 2020 found that ICE resorted to solitary confinement to isolate sick people during the COVID-19 pandemic. ..." What is wrong with that?
