This is a very ignorant take. ICE is less than 25 years old, and is inseparable from all the post-9/11 attacks on civil liberties.

The problem isn’t ICE existing, it’s what ICE has turned into under Trump and that nasty Caillou-looking Stephen Miller. This makes me want to fucking pull my hair out. Are you old enough to remember Bush? ICE was always headed in this fascist direction, including under the Obama and Biden regimes.
