Leaked video from inside ICE detention shows women trapped in desperate conditions—smuggled out by husband.
Used panties, moldy food, broken shoes, clothes that don't fit because made for men—and a toxic mattress made of insulation.
Gabriela Sousa came to U.S. legally granted humanitarian parole from Venezuela—and is married to U.S. citizen husband.
Her husband helped the women smuggle out this video they made—with testimonials from several women detained together in these inhumane conditions
The video was made secretly inside the Baker County ICE Detention Center in Macclenny, Florida.

The POW Who Kept His Promise to the Kaiser.
In 1914, British Captain Robert Campbell of the East Surrey Regiment was severely wounded and captured by German forces just weeks into World War I. For two long years, he languished in the Magdeburg prisoner-of-war camp, completely cut off from his family.
In late 1916, Campbell received devastating news: his mother in England was dying of cancer. Desperate to see her one last time, he took a wildly improbable shot in the dark. He wrote a personal letter directly to Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, begging for a brief compassionate leave.
Astonishingly, the Kaiser personally granted the request. The German leader offered Campbell two weeks of leave to visit his dying mother in Kent, on one single condition. Campbell had to give his "word as a British officer" that he would voluntarily return to the enemy prison camp when the fortnight was up.
Campbell traveled across war-torn Europe by boat and train, reached his family home in Gravesend, and spent a precious final week with his mother before she passed away. He then did the unthinkable: he kissed his remaining family goodbye, packed his bags, and traveled right back to Germany.
Honoring his word, Captain Campbell walked directly back into the Magdeburg POW camp and surrendered himself to his captors. He spent the next two years imprisoned until the war finally ended in 1918, proving that for some men, honor holds far more weight than freedom.

The Hotlzman Shield in Dune is one of the perfect examples of adding a tiny thing to a setting to get a vibe you want out of it.
In Dune's case:
- Holtzman Shields stop fast moving objects.
- Lasguns (particle beam guns in Dune) can cause a nuclear explosion if they hit a shield, so they're not commonly used.
- Melee is the dominant form of combat, trying to strike slow to penetrate the shields.
- Projectile weapons exist but they're designed around boring through or disrupting shields, but a skilled combatant can deflect the slow moving projectiles.
- Heavy artillery can still kill shielded humans through sheer transfer of force or heat, which the shield can't block.
- Anti-vehicle weapons are built around these principles because the vehicle might be shielded.
Dune codified the idea of high tech sci-fi where you still have melee and the idea of "oh here's this piece of technobabble that let's me have what I want in my sci-fi setting." Gundam's Minovsky Particle and Mass Effect's Element Zero owe the Holtzman Shield their existence.

A hugely underrated aspect of the Dune universe's appeal is how Frank Herbert built a world where people zip around the galaxy in spaceships but then fight each other with swords and knives. It makes everything 50 percent cooler than a world of ray guns and robots.

Fascinating watching Joe become more and more terrified of this new world he is largely responsible for creating

Joe Rogan: " One of these high-level commanders says, 'don't be worried [about war with Iran] because Trump is anointed by Jesus Christ to bring back [his] return on Earth' … Those [guys] are just as scary as suicide bombers."
