If ICE cares the tiniest bit about “people like me” they wouldn’t have committed so many crimes in the open with zero consequences. My point which everybody seems to ignore is that: ICE doesn’t care what I or you think and therefore they don’t need to fabricate factious story
And yet they literally continue to do so both in court and in public.
Because they DO care, regardless of what you say. Their entire shtick is reliant on people NOT caring. Not that I’m agreeing or disagreeing with you or the other commenter on this specific case but thinking theyre immune to public response is wrong.
The concentration camps, child abduction+trafficking, forced sterilizations and murders perpetuated by the DHS (not just ICE but the CBP “good guys” as well) have all been repeatedly, and emphatically adjucated as being legal. Thus making them not crimes either.
There are zero consequences because they aren’t crimes.
The reputation laundering is important in making sure there isn’t a build up of pressure which could result in their goals, mission and methods becoming crimes.
^1 Terrible example and incredibly unrealistic, but I’m using it demonstrate weird legal contradictions and how the law™ can be twisted when used outside of formal contexts^

I think you have a misunderstanding of what “crime” means.
An accusation of a crime does not make that crime a reality. Interestingly CBP defines “child” as an unmarried person under twenty-one years of age 1
