A republic has to be able to enforce its laws without hiding the human consequences of enforcement. If detention facilities are holding pregnant women, students, and sick people in conditions that lack basic care, that should not remain a private matter between an agency and a contractor. It belongs before the public, and before the representatives who authorize the money, write the rules, and owe an answer to the people they serve.

There's never bipartisan support to fix issues so politicians can "run" on the issue. Just like how Trump made the Republicans pull out of the last immigration deal, and how Dems when in charge never codified Roe v Wade.
