"Adam Boyd, a 33-year-old attorney who resigned from ICE’s legal department last month, told me he left because the mission was no longer about protecting the homeland from threats. 'It became a contest of how many deportations could be reported to Stephen Miller by December,' Boyd said. ...
'I had to make a moral decision,' he told me."

As Aaron Reichlin-Melnick noted, the vote to approve the budget made ICE 'the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency in history, with more money per year at its disposal over the next four years than the budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, US Marshals, and Bureau of Prisons combined.'”

in reply to William Lindsey • • •As Roger Parloff reports, the goal of the Trump administration in its criminal case and civil litigation against Abrego Garcia is not about upholding the rule of law, but rather contributing to President Trump’s political messaging.
Abrego Garcia's innocence, his wrongful detention and torture, the lies told about him: all take second place to what Trump wants.

in reply to William Lindsey • • •IT WAS NEVER ABOUT PROTECTING AMERICA. The anti-immigrant arguments were always stupid. We are doing all of this to deflect blame away from wealthy people for how much everyone's lives suck right now.
Those “people” in ICE are committing crimes against humanity in order to make sure the wealthy can continue screwing us all with impunity.

in reply to William Lindsey • • •No one should be too concerned with the “feelings” of these ICE stormtroopers.
What matters is whether they are willingly participating in these atrocities, or if they are quitting in defiance.
