There is no redeeming this, no amount of training that can fix the rot at the heart of this institution. Any Democratic official that votes to give this agency a penny is betraying our country.
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Out of town ICE thugs physically intimidate an immigration attorney protecting her clients.
ATTORNEY: "Don't push me! Why are you trying to pick them up?"
ICE GOON: "It's none of your business!"
ATTORNEY: "It is my business—I'm their attorney. It's EXACTLY my business!"
They give up and leave 😭

Posting about a consumer product that unexpectedly caught on fire - good.
Reporting it to us so we can investigate - better.

This is pure, unabashed bigotry.
If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party.
But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence.
A stain on our Congress.

Kristi Noem lies.
Noem's claim is FALSE. Here is ICE's own data on the detention population among those arrested by ICE:
- 43% no criminal record (up from 6% at the start of the year),
- 29% at least one prior conviction*
- 28% at least one pending charge
*most common are traffic and immigration offenses.

If you're a Democrat who's resisting the increasingly popular calls in your party to abolish ICE altogether and you're looking for some halfway measure, make it banning all masks and requiring clear badges and nameplates for all federal agents.
At the very least, we could ID the Proud Boys etc.

Take note, Dem Spineless Caucus
Gallego ("moderate" Dem) is going with "ICE needs to be totally torn down" (not "reform and retrain"). This is a pivot point for the country on immigration. You have been seeing this in the data for a while, and now officials are snapping to the public opinion www.gelliottmorris.com/p/ice-is-a-7...
