ICE and the Border Patrol pose a threat not just to our civil liberties but to our political liberties. The fight for free and fair elections is paramount.

Today's Morning Shots from @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social and @eggerdc.bsky.social, plus @cathyyoung63.bsky.social and Ben Parker:
Defang ICE → Save the Midterms
The fight over ICE isn’t just about civil rights. It’s about free and fair elections, too.
