Edit: Psychiatric, not psychedelic cocktails, at facilities operated by private contractors in Texas. This has been happening for several decades.
Can we get some clarification in the OP for this? People doing drive-by's in this thread like this started last month.
This didn't start under Trump, reports go back to 2014.
This is a privately run government contractor. This is not an ICE facility.
The drugs are psychiatric, not psychedelic. This isn't MKULTRA.
This is monstrous and reprehensible, but it's important to understand the facts.
Guys, these actions occur a dozen or dozens of levels down the organizational hierarchy. But when they come to light, you demand oversight to protect against further injustices and swift action to correct those taking place.
Those in higher leadership roles have the responsibility of establishing an organizational culture and addressing the problems that are uncovered by their subordinates and the 4th estate.
This is the kind of thing that takes decades to happen. Rogue agencies and contractors operate in corrupt fashion without being caught, unaware to the higher ups. Then they become emboldened when leaders like Trump come into power and defend them.
This is why the press is needed and why throwing a bush, Trump, or Mcconnell out of office isn't enough. You have to keep them out of office, continuously, so that the culture can purify and corrupt practices can be stomped out or die out.
This is now coming to light. Now it's on those in power to do something about it, and it's on all of us to exert the pressure on those in power, and to put the right people in power to address this.
It's not binary
