Ppl are dunking on this, but it sounds like a very solid plan to gather more evidence that will not be used, for prosecutions that will not happen, involving new legal violations that will never be charged.
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms
1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.
2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.
3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

An ICE agent covered head-to-toe in body cams, just thousands of tiny cameras, beating the shit out of an old woman. That's the bipartisan dream

I'm just going to keep saying this until I die:
In a white supremacist patriarchy, you have value only insofar as you serve the white supremacist patriarchy.
Kyle Rittenhouse & Ashli Babbitt did. Renee Good & Alex Pretti didn't. On Jan 6, the insurrectionists did. The cops didn't.
Rinse, repeat.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

My friends, we are in a serious constitutional crisis. The government is racially profiling, suppessing free speech, killing our own people in the streets— and lying about every fact along the way. If we don’t use our natural talents and voices to say “no,” then what’s the point of law at all?
Thinking about those law professors who have done their part to normalize what we are seeing, either by approvingly amplifying extreme right wing sources (like the Daily Caller, Federalist, Dan McLaughlin), or by writing scholarship about Trumpism like it's a hypo and not reality.

Democrats, retired or in office, who act like only the 7 who voted for the ICE funding bill are to blame need to shut the fuck up. House Dems *didn't whip the vote.* That is a profoundly clear statement of support for ICE. People are being executed in the street and you didn't whip the fucking vote.

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.

ICE is violently assaulting peaceful protestors & entering homes without warrants. They shot an innocent mom in the head & used a 5-year-old as bait.
I voted against funding, but that’s not enough. Abolish and dismantle ICE. If you support this shit, you are sick in the head.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"
