Which is bad because a lot of them will be right back to insisting on more cameras, more data collection and more jackboot the second he's gone.

Wonder why people would take issue with the unqualified, armed, masked thugs abducting innocent people off the street and deporting them without recourse or due process. Must be all about Trump, surely.

The only thing defying logic here is the MAGA cult rationalizing away the brown shirts now patrolling the streets of America, they who are supposedly so attached to freedom.

    Congress can whip up a law making immigration infractions more serious crimes (which comes with better process) and day it chooses.

    ICE can send better qualified better trained agents any time it chooses.

    They can likewise be more fastidious about who they choose to go after such that far fewer innocents are caught up in it.

    Would that make it ok?

    • You're missing the point of Trump's ICE. Scaring the opposition is their entire raison d'être. Abducting citizens randomly, wearing masks and using uncalled-for violence are their tools to achieve this.

      However reasonable your propositions are, it's pointless considering them. This administration is completely uninterested in refocusing ICE on their original mission.
