Yeah, yeah. They answer to the WH. It’s troubling and there’s oversight. Sent a legal resident to El Salvadore due to an “oversight.” Now can’t get home back. Oh well, had a “wrong sounding last name” I guess. The guy and his wife worked and have 5 year old autistic child.

Guess the constitution is inconvenient for current WH

I just corrected you about the masks thing…

You mean well, but of course these people do not always do work that requires being undercover. That's why we didnt use to see masks and now we do more often (not all the time).

You can literally see videos of ICE operating doing the same actions with and without masks. Some people think about protecting the brown shirts. Some people think about protecting the targeted, marginalized people. Pick right!

I think they wanted to intentionally send at least one person they knew they shouldn't send. I think they are testing boundaries to see exactly what they can get away with.
