Some days, Washington Post ran a big blaring headline thousands
of ICE detainees claim they were forced into labor, a
violation of anti slavery laws. Wow, that sounds really bad.
I'll bet right now you're asking, what's this all about,
il rushboe. Well, the first thing you need to know, folks,
is this supposed forced labor happened during the Obama administration.
A two thousand fourteen lawsuits getting attention now because the
(00:23):
federal judge just granted the defendants class action status. When
this suit just began, it was nine defendants. Lawyers were
suing for five million dollars. But with class action status,
damages for up to sixty thousand illegal immigrants could grow substantially,
says the Post. In other words, the lawyers could hit
the jackpot if they prevail. Here's what else you need
(00:46):
to know. The lawsuit is against a private prison run
by an evil corporation. This is the first lawsuit of
its kind to get this far. Liberals are excited because
they hate private prisons with a passion. Now, the most
important fact, the legal immigrants were never slaves. They were volunteers.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
