ICE must be abolished.
That’s the conclusion we at Amnesty International have reached after documenting the chilling pattern of human rights violations across the US during immigration enforcement operations.
ICE’s record of violating human rights has been documented for more than two decades, but our latest findings show that the abuses go well beyond a series of incidents. Instead, under the Trump administration, there is a clear pattern that has reached a new and dangerous scale.
If Democrats win any chamber of Congress this should be a rider on every bill. Even if they were reined in they’re still heavily armed, heavily funded, and extremely loyal to Trump.
But it probably won’t be on any.
While all federal level politicians rightfully calling for abolition are Dems (and afair Bernie finally got there too), the majority of federal level Dem politicians, including the entire party leadership, consider the very notion unthinkable.
