ice was "infiltrated" by violent extremists in the same way that auto repair shops are "infiltrated" by mechanics
Came here to say something similar. Aren't they being selected for this kind of work by people interested in them being like that?
infiltrated implys they snuck in, they deff didnt need to sneak in anywhere.
That's the best moral outrage the Democrats can come up with? Seriously? No wonder we get our ass kicked all the time.
No. They can be even more morally outraged by the actual left wing of their own damned party.
This is like pushing back against the racist fascist policy in a way that gives the racist fascist policy an air of legitimacy. Like honestly its exactly the right move as planned opposition. Like did a think tank come up with this?
Narrator: They won't.
Other Narrator: Because they are.
Bigly
That was implied.
we can no longer rely on implication and insinuation. The hesitancy to call a spade a spade is a large part of how we got here. People saying we can't call trump a Nazis in 2016 dispute literally recycling Hitler's own rhetoric is part of how we got here.
I blame the legacy media outlets. The very same that expressed grave concern for the violent tensions in Palestine but didn't call it a genocide until like this past winter.
yup. the news media in particular refused to call anything like that what it was. Israeli attacks in gaza isn't genocide. the invasion into Lebanon isn't an invasion. Assassinations aren't assassinations.
Same goes for trump. they sanewash literally everything he says to make him not seem like a racist, fuck-faced nazis getting cucked by Netanyahu and Puttin- at the same time.
It's not just the news media, either. Democrats- particularly centrist dems- refuse to call genocide genocide, or even to simply recognize Palestinian-American's right to protest (and equal protection from counter protesters. ACAB in full force there.)
I think that part of our problems come from people being too polite. Someone will say something completely stupid, and people don't want to make a fuss so they let it slide. Peer pressure is like the only thing that changes minds.
For anyone that's ever seen Speak No Evil, an awful lot of the Tone Police running the media behave almost exactly the same way...gawd forbid we should ever make a Republican or a conservative feel uncomfortable for what they say and do and what their intentions are...
I'm trying to remember who it was, but I remember seeing some butthurt Republican just recently squawking over someone calling them a racist. They want to be free to be racist AF, but don't you dare call them one! That's like the worst thing someone can do!
Washington AG urges ICE to restore death reporting, citing Tacoma facility complaints
ICE can't remember shit
The canary, if there's one, is already a pile of bones and feather at this stage.
Ain't gonna be no ICE after this shakes out so
Some people have internalized the slaver -nazi-genocidal message so deeply, they consider themselves the good guys. Like zionazis.
Founded by?
ICE was created as part of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 following the September 11 attacks. It absorbed the prior functions of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the United States Customs Service.
The HSA was cosponsored by 118 members of Congress. Passed the House 295—132 with 6 not voting. It passed the U.S. Senate by a vote of 90—9, with one senator not voting. It was signed by George W. Bush in November 2002.

So.. ultimately Osama Bin Laden is responsible for ICE, along with many of the other pro-fascism shifts the US has made in the last 25 years in response to those attacks.
He was extremely successful with his entire plan to destabilize and hurt America in response to the US fucking around in the middle east for decades prior.
