    No but you don’t understand, suddenly now that the media is telling me how bad ICE is, I care about this. When a blue president is in office the media doesn’t talk about it, so I just assume everything is okay again.

    Not talking about things = progress!

      Under any previous administration they at the very least respected the law. This administration has given them carte blanche to ignore the law and infringe on the rights of citizens (who they aren’t even supposed to be interacting with). More importantly they weren’t fucking murdering citizens in the streets back then either. This ICE is not the ICE of 2 years ago, not by a long shot. The media is barely even saying how bad ICE is because they fear authoritarian backlash. The world is saying it because we have eyes and ears.

        Its always been this ICE. Hell Tom Homman has been around the entire time. The border patrol in general has always been racist openly so since it’s Inception.

        So Genocide Joe was following the law when he put kids in cages and adults sometimes in inhuman conditions?
        Or did you all choose not to see it as long as they or your forever fascist cops only targeted minorities?
        O how those libs suddenly got angry when they shot 2 white people.
        Both cases world news.
        Can you name 1 of the 35 that got killed by ICE in 2025 or the many others before?
        All already in custody, no gun, no car.
        You can’t because none of you cared.
        They were Mexican, Colombian, Vietnamese,etc…
        You and your shit racist banana republic can get fucked.
        Glad you got Trump and I hope he makes it a lot worse for you and destroys your shithole.
        You all deserve it.

        ah yes when they were forcefully sterilizing women a few years ago, it was within the bounds of the empire’s law and that makes it all okay 😇

        go to hell, like actually

        My concerns aren’t that they are doing it in an unlawful way, my concern is that they are doing it period.

        Inserting a layer of bureaucracy into the process doesn’t make it in anyway better or okay.
