In the US, people with severe mental illness often end up in jail bc there is no real system of care. Isabelle Taft found something far more shocking in DeSoto County, MS: hundreds of patients awaiting treatment were sent to the county jail. propublica.org/article/baptis…

From the comments: The ship of state is now riddled with self-inflicted holes, and soon the dream it evokes will sink beneath the waves. If this were theatre, this titanic, ghostly ship could do no better job communicating this moment in history nytimes.com/2025/02/19/us/…
