Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment.
That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant.
Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".
