Liberal writer Bill Scher is scathing about the evasions and confusions of the abolish-ICE movement.
How half-baked is Abolish ICE case? Read the words of its chief advocates.
In an interview with The Intercept, Ocasio-Cortez was asked to respond to Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ explicit defense of child separation. In her answer, she said it is “extremely concerning” that ICE, which is housed in the Department of Homeland Security, “does not answer to the Department of Justice,” unlike ICE’s predecessor, the Immigration and Naturalization Service or INS. But to immediately put immigration enforcement back in the Justice Department would put it in the hands of Jeff Sessions! That probably isn’t what most immigrant advocates have in mind. . .
