The massive expansion of immigration enforcement — with tens of billions of new funding, tens of thousands of newly recruited agents, and unrealistic arrest targets — has led to systemic violations of U.S. citizens’ Constitutional rights. #AbuseofPowerWatch
How federal agents are terrorizing American citizens
Last week, hundreds of heavily armed federal agents descended on an apartment complex in Chicago, arriving in Black Hawk helicopters and moving trucks.

A lot of misleading takes on CBS poll that shows 57% favor deporting "all immigrants living in the U.S. illegally".

Don't believe the hype. When people hear who specifically gets deported, support quickly goes from net positive to net negative.

See, for example: www.vox.com/2024-electio...
Polls say voters back “mass deportation.” That’s misleading.
Americans’ opinions on immigration are more complicated than any one question can capture.

The most potent driver in the election was economic discontent, expressed in President-elect Donald Trump’s gains with most demographics. If there is a mandate, it’s on that: raise wages and bring down food, housing and health care costs.
