I think a major difference between Dems and Republicans is that Republicans could turn even the hint of this sort of abuse into a culture war event. Remember the IRS targeting conservative orgs (they weren't but never mind)? Dems mostly don't have a media machinery to gin up this sort of outrage.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Our media will of course learn no lessons from this, but the initial ICE narrative about the two murders it committed here in Minneapolis was 100% false, slanderously depicting the victims as aggressors attempting to kill federal agents. Literally zero reason to believe ICE here. Zilch. None.

been thinking all morning about this graf in @micarosenberg.bsky.social and @jeffernsthausen.bsky.social's story
Sometimes the deportation orders issued in immigration court have been coming so fast that lawyers say even they have a hard time explaining them to their clients. Within a span of three hours on a single morning in April in a downtown New York immigration courtroom, Judge Jem Sponzo issued deportation orders fore 25 minors, almost everyone on her docket appearing virtually that morning. Some of the hearings were only a few minutes long, and some of the minors were too young to understand what was happening to them.
