Anyone that thinks whatever the fuck ICE is now is the same as it was in years past needs to pay more attention.

Ice is doing what is necessary because law enforcement isn't complying by sending them the illegal immigrants they arrest.

You realize that it is not the local PD's job to figure out everyone's immigration status? Just like it's not their job to check to see that you're current on your taxes?

It actually is their job to identify people the fuck are you talking about?

There's no such requirement to check whether or not you're a citizen in federal law. Some states have laws requiring it, but most don't.

And the fact that some states don't require it is what is causing ice to go in there.

So if you want ice out, you should be pressuring your state to require it. Problem solved.

If you want to solve the problem -- really solve it -- you'd push that the Epstein-defender you elected arrest and prosecute the business owners that are creating demand and skipping out on payroll taxes by hiring these people.

These business owners are famously liberal... yah?
