Prison is where people are sent when convicted of crimes. I do not think that prisons should be, but this notion of comparing a place where ICE "detains" people uncharged, in limbo to a prison as if that were the standard misses the mark.
The people in "Alligator Alcatraz" as the conservatives have named it, are not convicted of crimes.

Also he's lying. It's worse than a typical US prison and that is very alarming.

Tom Homan thinks he sounds tough, but in reality he sounds sloppy and totally unconvincing as he stumbles through justifications for the atrocity he is directing.
He is working in a position beyond his abilities. And it only makes him more dangerous.

@futurebird Agreed on all of the above.
Noted that he has a little law enforcement history, and a lot of border patrol history, but nothing I can see about correctional officer or prison administration history.
So it would be like me talking about the stupid things I do to brick my Raspberry Pi and going "I would compare it to enterprise DevOps."
Except—you know–with human lives.

Tom Homan should consider the consequences for his immortal soul of the work he has chosen. It must be very exciting to be promoted to a position beyond your wildest dreams, but not only is he not up to this work, and out of his depth, but there is a reason they had to go all the way down the list and pick him.
This is the most ugly work. This won't ever wash off.
I guess I find it striking how blithely he seems to be walking into it.

It is, however, helpful that he keeps being, well honest about what he's been instructed to do. Eg. that statment about not needing probable cause. That's how they operate.
And we're all being tested to see if we will tolerate this outrageous and obvious abuse of the constitution and human rights.
On the matter of "immortal souls" I'm worrying that I'm failing.
