trying to subvert the process on Trump's and his own behalf. And who knows who else's. He broke the agreement that gave him a nice, cushy gentleman's incarceration filled with amenities and was contacting people in eastern Europe on business related to his imprisonment and investigations around Trump. Some intractable criminals are just like that, and he's one of them.

How about border jails so overcrowded that detainees literally have to stand in the cells because there's no room to sit down?

Or these:

Trump administration cancels English classes, soccer, legal aid for unaccompanied child migrants in U.S. shelters

Migrant children stuck at border stations, sleeping on concrete, because of HHS overcrowding: Officials have warned that there will be more deaths of children at border stations if Health and Human Services does not increase its capacity.

And if it's isolation that's especially disturbing, note that we no longer reserve it for criminals:

Immigrant children described being put in isolation for eight days, deprived of physical touch and constantly sobbing at a temporary detention center in Homestead, Florida, according to a motion filed by immigration lawyers on Friday.
