  • Love Andrew, Love Shia

    I heard Shia on Jon Bertnthal’s podcast after the birth of my daughter. He spoke clearly about the struggles he faced and the love he felt. I could relate. I hope he gets what he needs, he sounds more distressed here. I think he really found some blissful love in his child. I hope he comes back to that and gets better. Love you dude, you can do it.

Exposing Horrific Conditions of I.C.E. Detention Centers - 5CAST (#17) ft. Douglas MacMillan
Q: Could you explain how the bed rate works and how the private companies profit from detention?
The guest describes the bed rate as the daily payment per detainee, which is then allocated to various costs such as labor, food, and phone services, with labor often representing the largest slice and profit arising from markup and efficiency practices.
Exposing Horrific Conditions of I.C.E. Detention Centers - 5CAST (#17) ft. Douglas MacMillan
Q: What percentage of detention facilities that are set up for immigrants are currently operated by either a GeoGroup or a CoreCivic?
The guest explains that the vast majority of immigrant detainees are in facilities run by private companies like GeoGroup and CoreCivic, with many facilities being operated by these private contractors.

Interviewing the Congressman Behind the Epstein File Drop - 5CAST (#15) ft. Ro Khanna
Q: What was the extent of Trump's involvement in the recent file release?
It has never been about Donald Trump; it's about ensuring justice for survivors. There were documents released that had tips about Trump, and then suddenly that document was taken offline.
Interviewing the Congressman Behind the Epstein File Drop - 5CAST (#15) ft. Ro Khanna
Q: What do you think are the most important pieces of evidence that every American should see from the most recent file release?
They should look at who all is in the files that emailed Epstein about going to the island. I've said all those people should be hauled in front of Congress.
