Democratic Party Official Position is to Abolish ICE

[DrDeth]

@RitterSport

That agency can be abolished and those job functions picked up by some new agency. ICE didn’t exist before 2003, and yet somehow those functions were done.

By the INS, which was converted over into two agencies, one of which is ICE, Just a re-organization,

@CaveMike

“Abolish ICE” is fine for now, for the midterms. Many people will know that the slogan effectively means “curb the excess”.

Except that does not seem to be what the Dems called for.

@RitterSport

Obama deports more immigrants than anyone. Republicans: Dems want open borders
Biden deports more immigrants than Trump 1. Republicans: Dems want open borders
It’s a Monday. Republicans: Dems want open borders

Yeah. Both Obama and Biden used ICE properly. Deporting immigrants with criminal records- mostly.

The Dems can cut back the Budget for ICE early next yeah. Then ICE will have to get rid of all those excess Agents and it will not be able to fund that kinds of raids it has been doing.

Then if we have a Dem president in 2028, ICE can be re-organized out of existence, like what happened to INS.
