ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.
Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.
That’s not making America great again.

Trump says the US is in "armed conflict" with drug cartels.
Meanwhile, his DOJ is disbanding a task force that took on cartels.
Trump doesn't care about stopping drug trafficking — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.
This is a power grab.
