In my lifetime the early 2000s disbanding of the Iraqi army is a notorious example. The US disarmed and fired them with no plan for reintegration, and many ended up in Al Qaeda and Isis. Post WWII we had Marshall Plan. Or are those too much bigger than ICE to be relevant? FARC in Colombia?

So who is thinking through what happens after "abolish ICE" ? They are characterized by many as a poorly trained, heavily armed, zero-oversight paramilitary force driven by a racist ideology. 10,000+. How do you reintegrate this population into society _after_ you defund, disband & disarm them?
