That's a law enforcement agency arresting, for months or years, people who not only have not committed a crime, but no crime actually existed at all.

They just _mysteriously_ looked at the person and decided they were here illegally.

You don't think that's meaningful?

These reports, as well as others that include accounts of ICE arresting and detaining US citizens, also make me think that ICE is challenging ATF’s reputation as one of the most lawless and unaccountable federal law enforcement agencies.

LOL. Tell me you're a conservative without telling me you're a conservative.

ICE has always been completely lawless, in every possible way, since it was created. It just generally restricted itself to being lawless against brown people.

Now, it feels free to move on to other people too.

It also used to have to turn people over to the courts, and it doesn't have to do that anymore.

But all this has been ICE, for the two decades it has existed. This is how it always has been, it didn't suddenly get worse.
