We were trapped in our rooms as a fire approached, with ashes everywhere. The staff eventually opened our doors and moved us to a day room, where we watched the fire grow closer for hours. The smoke filled the area, making it hard to breathe, and we were not allowed to leave. Even when the fire reached nearby streets, we felt helpless. They offered us sweaters for protection, but going outside seemed dangerous due to the smoke. At one point, the wind blew a door open, and I had to rush to close it to keep everyone safe. It was a terrifying experience, and I feared for our lives if the fire reached us.

Families have lost everything as their loved ones are unlawfully imprisoned for minor infractions. My son was subjected to "diesel therapy," being moved from prison to prison, enduring horrific conditions, including contaminated water and constant lights. Communication with attorneys and family was severely restricted, making it nearly impossible to prepare a defense. Under the current administration, our rights have been violated, and attempts to silence dissent have escalated. Despite President Trump's recent pardon for my son, he remains incarcerated due to obstruction from the city’s mayor. Just last night, he was assaulted by guards while awaiting processing. We have already filed a lawsuit, and this incident only adds to our case.

In prison, there aren't many options for activities. I spend my time reading books, including novels, playing chess, and working on my legal case as much as possible, such as appeals. I also handle whatever work I can from inside. However, the scarcity of meaningful ways to occupy my time is one of the most disheartening aspects of being incarcerated.

I'm in MDC Brooklyn, been here for about two years. It's dystopian, but the staff are mostly helpful. It's tough when 40 people are locked in a room for years, and the smallest things become everything. I haven't had physical problems, but legal access during my trial was a nightmare. I spend my days reading, playing chess, and working on my case. The lack of meaningful activity is crushing. I’ve had time to reflect on my communication, realizing I focused too much on details and missed the big picture. I wasn't on Adderall, but my mind was racing with a billion things to manage, I prefer having the digital world for productivity and impact. I've made some friends here, including Diddy, who's been kind, although this is a weird environment.

Entering El Salvador's SECOR, the terrorism confinement center, is overwhelming. Inmates, often gang members, live in harsh conditions with no mattresses or sheets, relying on basic facilities. The prison is heavily fortified, with extensive security measures and over 1,000 personnel. Inmates are confined to sectors, rarely leaving their cells, which house up to 80 individuals. Marvin Vasquez, a former MS-13 gang leader, describes limited daily activities and the severe consequences for violence. Critics raise human rights concerns about the strict isolation. Under President Bukele, aggressive crime crackdowns have led to over 81,000 arrests, with many expressing support for the increased security. While some innocent individuals have been caught in the sweep, the government views this as collateral damage in their fight against gangs. For many, SECOR represents a new era of safety in El Salvador.

Speaker 0 claims that someone was put in solitary confinement for more than a hundred days for speaking about what was happening inside his country. He says he knows why this is happening: purely for votes and to keep people in power. Speaker 0 adds that after visiting Europe and making videos about what was happening, he anticipated similar moves in the United States. He recounts a sit-down interview with Tommy Robinson, who explains that the Labour Party in the UK, and the Democrat Party in the US, stay in power because they “tell these Muslims they can go ahead, do whatever they want.” He says a Muslim “should be more conservative than they would be a liberal” because they don’t stand for much of that progressive stuff, and that “they have Sharia law” above everything. According to him, if someone goes to a mosque with a thousand people, the mosque leader is told, “we’re gonna let you guys do whatever you want, just make sure you vote for us.” He asserts that, as a result, the leader of the mosque will lead everyone in the mosque to voting centers to vote for that candidate. He claims this is why in London the mayor is Muslim and many surrounding towns are Muslim, and that they actually have courts practicing Sharia law. He says he anticipated this would happen in America as well, and mentions Mundami as an example. Speaker 0 then notes Mundami advocated for making childcare more affordable when running for office. He questions what is known about childcare now, describing daycare centers as “complete frauds.” He says he anticipated the current development and that people are now starting to see it in America. Speaker 0 explains that after he was pressed to give his opinion, people began loving it, even though he had not intended to speak out. He says he was originally just going to ask people questions, but they turned his journalism into activism, which he says forced his hand. He says he feels compelled to continue. Speaker 1 cautions, advising not to let them force him into something he thinks they don’t want him to do, referencing what he is currently doing. He concludes that they would rather have an activist than a competitor.

A new report on postmillennial.com, initially broken by Brian Enten from News Nation, states that Tyler Robinson, the accused murderer of Charlie Kirk, is currently holding virtual visits in prison with their son. Robinson is at the Utah County Jail in Utah County, Utah, where sheriff sergeant Ray Ormond oversees the facility. He is being held in a special unit described as the most restrictive custody level Utah can provide pending trial, and he has been there for nearly three months as of tomorrow, since Charlie Kirk’s murder. Robinson has been in custody for about thirty-three hours after his parents turned him in. The facility housing him is referred to as the special management unit (SMU). In this unit, inmates typically receive meals similarly to others, with cardboard sectioned-off trays and plastic utensils. There is a mention of suicide watch considerations, drawing from the speaker’s experience at Guantanamo Bay with detainees on suicide watch. The cell is described as self-contained, often six by ten or eight by ten feet, with a mattress, a sink, and a stainless steel toilet bolted to the wall, and a flat floor. The discussion then turns to what can be inferred from Robinson’s parents conducting virtual visits with him. The speaker suggests this casts their silence in a different light, noting that some have questioned why the parents wouldn’t go public if they believed their son was innocent. It is stated that they are not going public because they are communicating privately with their son through virtual visits, with indications that Robinson’s parents, Brian Natton and others, have been holding these visits several times a week. This is linked to Robinson’s appearances in court for pretrial hearings; another hearing is reportedly set for December 16. From a parental perspective, the speaker reflects on the horror of Charlie Kirk’s murder, a 31-year-old man described as a young father and husband. The speaker recounts that prosecutors’ documents indicate it was Robinson’s mother who first identified him, then informed the father, who then recognized the grandfather’s gun. The mother and father reached out to the grandfather to locate the weapon. The speaker speculates that during these virtual visits, the parents may be saying goodbye to their son, interpreting the private communications as a form of farewell.

I was taken to a cold basement shooting range, a temporary SBU facility, where my torture began. They started psychologically, accusing me of drug use and threatening injections, but when that failed, they moved to physical methods. Cuffed and moved to a bench, I was beaten while questioned about separatist connections. Electric shocks and bat strikes followed, including a severe blow to my spine. Then came water torture: a cloth over my face, hands cuffed behind my back, water poured over me while a heavy man sat on a bench pressing down on my legs. I felt myself drowning as water filled my lungs, a terrifying and painful experience. Expelling the water afterward was a struggle. I was held captive for 37 days.

I'm locked in an assisted living facility in New York, and it feels like a prison. I'm isolated here with much older people. I eat alone because it's depressing to eat with the others. All I have is a bathroom, a closet, and a TV that I had to get myself. I'm not allowed to go out or have visitors. I can call out, but no one can call me. I've been asking for an iPad for what feels like years, and I want my phone back so I can talk to my family and friends. In the last month, I've only been outside twice, for dental appointments. The system has completely failed me. The guardian is supposed to permit me as much independence as practical, but this is the opposite of independence. I want my freedom back.

I received paperwork from the BOP indicating that some rules were altered to psychologically torture me and isolate me from my family and attorneys. This was influenced by the Department of Justice, particularly the FBI and the Assistant US Attorney's Office, linked to my federal prosecutor, Jason Manning. In prison, a security officer intimidated me, asserting his control and dismissing my constitutional rights. I expressed my intention to abide by the rules while advocating for the truth about January 6th and my innocence. Despite my compliance, I was entrapped into breaking a rule regarding phone communication, which I was never informed about. After submitting my contacts, I was falsely accused of breaking the rules and subjected to four months of severe isolation abuse.

Entering El Salvador's SECOR prison, the atmosphere is tense, filled with the gaze of notorious inmates. The facility lacks basic comforts, with no mattresses or sheets, and inmates are confined to cells holding around 80 individuals. Security is intense, with multiple checkpoints and a large armed presence. Inmates, many affiliated with gangs like MS-13, face strict control, with limited time outside their cells. Critics argue this violates human rights, but officials defend the measures as necessary for maintaining order. Under President Bukele's administration, a crackdown on crime has led to over 81,000 arrests, significantly reducing crime rates, though some innocent people have been caught in the sweep. The prison symbolizes a new era in El Salvador, where safety is prioritized, albeit at a high cost.

Hey guys, I'm Chris Quaglin, and I'm now a non-felon after being incarcerated for about a year. I've been in seven jails in eleven months, and Northern Neck was the worst. The conditions were inhumane, from rats and roaches to guards beating inmates and staff ignoring prisoner rights. I was denied a gluten-free diet despite having celiac disease and told I didn't have celiac, even though I was diagnosed 25 years ago. I lost 50 pounds. I was also denied COVID quarantine and basic necessities like soap and water. After calling my lawyer, I tested positive for COVID and was locked down without phone access. The jail admitted to listening to my lawyer calls and punishing me for what was said. I'm furious about the inhumane conditions, and the FBI will be questioning everyone involved. Cooperate and give up bigger fish because cops aren't built to be on the other side of those bars. Thank you.

The ADX supermax prison, 90 miles south of Denver, exemplifies solitary confinement, where inmates spend 23 hours a day in small cells. This isolation, often termed torture, affects prisoners' mental health and identity. Notably, Tommy Silverstein has endured 35 years in solitary. Despite international human rights laws against long-term solitary confinement, the U.S. practices it, often hidden from public scrutiny. Transparency in the justice system is crucial, as the conditions in prisons like ADX reflect our societal values and obligations.

George Santos: Being Tortured, Finding God, and Hearing of Charlie Kirk’s Murder From Behind Bars
Guests: George Santos
reSee.it Podcast Summary
George Santos recounts his 84-day incarceration at FCI Fairton, a federal prison in South Jersey, describing it as a "gulag" with appalling conditions. He details the racially segregated environment, unsanitary facilities plagued by black mold, expired food, and a kitchen run with severe hygiene issues, which he attempted to improve by cooking and documenting the problems for a newspaper column, leading to the kitchen's closure. Santos describes his 41-day solitary confinement, initiated due to an unverified threat, as a period of profound dehumanization. He endured recycled, unwashed clothing, limited showers, and isolation, leading to suicidal thoughts and a deep religious awakening. He criticizes the prison administration, particularly Warden Lynn Kelly, for alleged dereliction of duty, budget mismanagement (e.g., buying a large TV for her office while essential services lacked funding), and punitive rather than rehabilitative treatment. He highlights the lack of adequate mental health care, the prevalence of drugs smuggled by underpaid guards in the medium-security facility, and the existence of a "snitch system" within the broader criminal justice system, which he believes is overly zealous and driven by monetary incentives from prison supply contracts (e.g., Bob Barker, Kefi). His unexpected commutation by President Trump, which he learned about via MSNBC, is seen as a divine intervention following his spiritual renewal. This experience transformed his perspective on wealth, prioritizing family, friends, and health over material possessions. Santos expresses a newfound commitment to prison reform, advocating for dignity and second chances for incarcerated individuals, a stark contrast to his previous dismissive views. Beyond his prison experience, Santos shares observations on current events, including his criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu's actions and his unwavering support for President Trump. He also voices deep concerns about the future of New York City, predicting its decline due to political leadership and economic policies, leading him to plan his departure from the state. He reflects on the loyalty of friends like Marjorie Taylor Greene during his ordeal, emphasizing the importance of true friendship in times of crisis.
