"But the Trump administration has slow-walked or outright defied judges’ orders demanding the release of people scooped up by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an increasingly rapid clip."

"Members of Congress, no matter their political affiliation, must recognize a constitutional duty to remove this gangster [Noem] from the position of public trust that she has so flagrantly abused. The will of the people is already clear. Trump and Noem thought they could intimidate the public into quiescence."

"But tens of thousands of Americans have filled the streets of Minneapolis and cities across the country to demand the abolition of ICE because they have chosen to believe their own eyes, as opposed to Noem’s lies.
The arguments against Noem are now so stark that even senior Republicans are making the case for her removal, with North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis" (continued)

"In fact, CATO calculated, 'The chance of an ICE or Border Patrol agent being murdered in the line of duty is about one in 94,549 per year, about 5.5 times less likely than a civilian being murdered. We should be much less concerned about their safety.' ...
It should go without saying that if you can’t police in a free society without hiding your face, the problem is with the policing — not the public."

"Indeed, in almost every video we see of ICE and CBP deploying force — including especially the fatal shootings of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti — the immigrant agents are the ones who initiate the violence, swarming Good’s car or approaching, shoving, pepper-spraying, and beating Pretti in the street."
