This incident alone would have triggered hearings and probably a senior-level resignation in another administration.
This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

Law enforcement officers have always been unmasked in this country until ICE started wearing them last year.
*That* is the departure from norms. *That* is the step too far.

Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."
