I don't care if Stephen Miller wants ICE to be able to beat up, shoot, or detain citizens.
In America, we believe in due process. We believe in our Constitution. We believe in law and order—safe streets, law enforcement we can trust.
If you don’t like that? Go to Russia.

And what Coast Guard official would follow that order? Noem is to blame, but...you do not leave a search and rescue mission. That's basic.
Whoever followed that order *also* needs to lose their job.
