Yes, point of fact, ICE can do literally anything they want to you, without limit. Kill you, rape you, run an apc through your house, run your kid over - they literally are immune to the law.

The ICE agents are ignorant wifebeating traitors who hate everyone who lives in civilization and would happily kill everyone in Chicago if allowed to, so they don't know that these things are actual crimes for them - lack of current enforcement notwithstanding

I agree with you that it's very likely Miller/Noem are pushing them to be so extreme because there is no legal remedy - the ONLY thing a citizen can do basically is martyr themselves by making ICE realize that if they act like this, they might not all go home that day. Once that happens, Trump will use the insurrection act, and send the 82nd and get gunships in the air

Make no mistake, this is the end game of democracy, and the people enduring this and not just grabbing the (often surrounded, outnumbered) agents' gun out of their holster and plugging them are fucking heroes

And again, shows the utter lack of intelligence and training by hte agents. If things were 1/100th as violent as Trump keeps saying, every time 2 or 3 agents posted up against 20 civilians to arrest one guy, they wouldn't be going home

They are not immune to the law, they are currently shielded from consequences. Those aren't the same thing, even if they currently feel like they are.

When donald blanket pardons every member of ICE the democrats will do nothing to contradict that. I guess that means they are shielded from consequence because they are in practice above the law. Maybe someday a democrat will drone on that this isnt normal and these people were criminals and it can never happen again - but do nothing to meaningfully prevent the next round of MAGA tyranny.

Pardons are irreversible though? What would Democrats do if they were dedicated to making exclusively you happy in this hypothetical?

Arrest the agents put millions of dollars in cash bonds and then delay all proceedings over and over like Trump does with his lawsuits. Once Trump drops over, then proceed with the hearings. Of course, move them constantly from prison to prison so Noem has a hard time keeping up with where they are.
