    By next year, when the scale of human rights violations and economic damage caused by mass deportations becomes clear, Repubs will be running away from the issue.

    Trump's Most Aggressive Immigration Policy Yet Just Dropped

    The Trump administration has issued a new policy denying bond hearings to illegal immigrants as they challenge their deportation proceedings.

    Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons put out a memo directing officers to detain illegal immigrants “for the duration for their removal proceedings,” according to The Washington Post. This move prevents judges from granting bond to illegal immigrants as they go through the process.

    Lyons noted that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Justice Department “revisited its legal position on detention and release authorities” and decided that illegals “may not be released from ICE custody.”

    Anyone encouraging violence against ICE agents or any law enforcement personnel are promoting domestic terrorism.

    Maybe ICE could wear clearly identifiable uniforms and identification so people's first inclination won't be to fight back because it seems like they're being kidnapped off the streets.
