one of the problems with this, apart from the obvious, is that no one who doesn't 100% buy in to all this xenophobic nonsense still works for ICE. They are turning into a squad of poorly trained far right thugs.
This is all happening right in front of our eyes.
Where do these kids fit on the @Grinch "an illegal is an illegal" chart?

Florida may surprise us.

Florida may surprise us.

Just like Texas will right? For some silly polls getting hopes up again 4 years later.

Not will, may. Besides a bunch of crap Republicans, Florida voted for Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and two terms of Obama. And compared to Texas, the margins have been pretty narrow every time.

Texas would be considerably more surprising. Texas voted for Carter but has gone Republican in every election since.
