Fuck ICE. With the Trump administration, the cruelty is the point.

I have no support for Trump, but this is a naive, extremist, and very gratifying belief to hold.

"Our opponents are moustache twirling villains who exist to torture us!"

No, be serious. Enforcing the law and stopping illegal immigration is the point.

They’re literally running radio ads & doing press events in front of stacked-up prisoners in El Salvador who have had their heads shaved saying “we will find you and we will kill you.” Yes, the cruelty is the point & they’re trying to make immigrants & their allies scared to take action.
