Rep. Delia Ramirez calls ICE "terrorists"

I agree with her. The organization needs to be purged, and its members stripped of their pensions and benefits and permanently blacklisted from all government service. At best, they should be allowed to walk away in disgrace and infamy. At worst, they should be criminally prosecuted for depriving people of their rights under the color of law.
Any ICE agent not walking away from this should.
C'mon ICE, do what's right.

...for enforcing the law.

Listen to yourself.

For enforcing the law?!
 
The Trump Regime has tripled the ICE budget,
They will now the largest single law enforcement agency we have.
Trump’s personal secret police.

Is anyone else alarmed abut this?
Where the hell is Congress?
 
RUn to the Nazis.

Okay. You want something else? Soviets, maybe? How about Pinochet?

The “enforcing the law” defense is meaningless.

You think it is appropriate for a literal secret police to choke out an abuela that overstayed her visa, say so. Stop standing behind “the law” (in a lawless nation no less) for your American gulag archipelago fantasies.
 
The “enforcing the law” defense is meaningless.
Then we should also be stripping police of their badges and pensions for apprehending bank robbers, white-collar fraudsters, and murderers. They're just enforcing the law, but "that defense is meaningless."

Hell, anyone involved in Trump's apprehension needs to go to PRISON!

But I'm sure that's different for reasons you can't articulate in a point finer than "BUT TRUMP IS BAD!"

You think it is appropriate for a literal secret police
"Literal" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Your crane is snapping apart. The existence of ICE is no secret. Its employees wear badges. That they don't identify themselves and detail the charges for which they are taking a person into custody to every Tom, Dick, and Harry who demands to know what's going on while they are in the middle of an apprehension doesn't make them "secret."

to choke out an abuela that overstayed her visa, say so.
No one should be "choked out" for no reason other than they overstayed their period of admission. But they should not be immune from being taken into custody and processed for removal.

Stop standing behind “the law” (in a lawless nation no less) for your American gulag archipelago fantasies.
It seems any law enforcement action makes you shake in your shoes, terrified of fascism. I can't help you with that, unfortunately.

Enforcing the law means obeying the Judges orders. They aren't doing that. Enforcing the law means obedience to the Constitution. They aren't doing that. It means caring for those whom you detain. They aren't doing that.

They aren't enforcing the laws. They aren't obeying the law.

Once you swear an oath to uphold the constitution, obeying illegal orders and unlawfully harming people under your legal authority subjects you to termination and even criminal prosecution. It’s called “deprivation of rights under color of law.”

 
They are aprehending persons who are unlawfully present in the United States and removing them. THat's their job. THey are doing what's right.
open borders is anarchy and the Democrats are anarchists

A Democratic congresswoman disparaged U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement earlier this month, calling the federal agency a "terrorist organization."

Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL) made the comments while delivering the keynote speech at the 2025 Netroots Nation annual conference in New Orleans, Louisiana. Netroots Nations is a nonprofit organization “that provides trainings, resources, and connection opportunities to help progressive activists create a more progressive and just world.” During her address, criticized many issues involving illegal immigration, including President Donald Trump, Border Czar Tom Homan, and ICE, claiming the federal agency continuously abuses people’s rights.

Comment:
We have the right to control our borders and immigration.
All countries control their borders and immigration.
Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL) is a racist Latino nationalist who does not respect the sovereignty of the United States.
The racist Far Left Democrats want us to give up on controlling our borders and immigration.
These dangerous Democrat anarchists are undermining the peace and prosperity of our country.

They're Thugs. Like Brown Shirts.
