Officials DHS tell NEWSMAX the agency has no record of stopping a car driven by the son of Ilhan Omar, as the congresswoman claimed.

    Allows ICE agents to break the law constantly but we’re supposed to think they would bother to document an illegal arrest of a legal US citizen for a congresswoman to have them abolished over? Good fucking joke.

    No way they left any evidence of the people they’ve disappeared, why do you think the first thing they take from people is their phones and ability to document ICE’s crimes?.

    remember when ICE deported some citizens under Trump one

    I’m not about to defend ICE or DHS here. But we need to emphasize the difference between “deport” and “allowed to leave”. Deporting a citizen almost never happens. Maybe a handful times a year, usually happens right at the border and the result of a catastrophic administrative fuck up. “Allowing to leave” means you deport a family member and the USC goes with. You see this happen with mixed citizenship families.

    I’m a visa holder myself. You get familiar to these sort of things.

    I mean there were about 70 citizens deported in Trump's first term that we know of and that's when they got some semblance of due process. Can't wait to see what the numbers are for this year and that doesn't include how many were illegally detained by ICE and denied their protected rights.

    Do they even keep records of what they are doing? Are they trustworthy records?

    Ah, yes, because I would fully trust this administration's ICE to keep a stringent record of their activities.

    What this tells me is that ICE probably isn't keeping records of the people that they harass
