But here, I mean, like I said, Social Circle is doing fine.

They're not starved for economic investment.

And ICE didn't, you know, consult them at all.

It really just, like, you know, in the dead of night, just bought this warehouse from a private company and pushed this deal through.

So those are some aspects that I think might throw, you know, some of us who might have been involved in these similar fights before, like, for a loop a little bit because...

Yeah, there's this assumption, I think, by some of the local officials that the supremacy clause governs here and the federal government can do whatever it wants.

So there's no point in us trying to use our local zoning ordinances or what have you to try to put a stop to this because there's nothing that we can do.

Right.

Is at least what, you know, some people might be saying.

Yeah, let's take a break for advertisements.

I can't think of anything mean to say.

I don't know, buy some shit that's come from a... Don't, don't buy anything you don't need.

Okay.

We are back.

So you were talking about this assumption that the supremacy clause would mean that the federal government could

build a mega prison in a warehouse in your town without asking you if it could do that first.

Can you explain how people are able to use, like you said, various local tools to oppose this?

Like you said, it's a huge burden.

When I first read this story, I remember thinking about just the water and

sewage demands of housing 8,000 people would be crippling for the infrastructure in a lot of places.
