Doxxing is the first and most obvious reason. Federal agents aren’t directly subject to the public, their respective agencies and the President hold them accountable.

Doxxing is the first and most obvious reason. Federal agents aren’t directly subject to the public, their respective agencies and the President hold them accountable.
The current POTUS is on record stating point blank he will not hold ICE and DHS agents accountable.
Currently theer is no effective Federal investigation into the earlier murder by ICE in MN, the DOJ, FBI, etc. have been directed to look to the motivations of the victim rather than the illegal traffic stop and boxing in by agents.
Bivens, in principle, provides a direct mechanism to sue federal agents who violate your rights.
That’s cool but Bivens doesn’t generally apply to ICE and it’s nearly impossible to create a case against them with that legal precedent.
The vice president and Homeland Security Advisor claimed they had absolute immunity, and the Feds refuse to investigate shootings. So there is no accountability.
