Phony liberals, AIPAC recipients, and protectors of the status quo all call for "fixing" or "reforming" ICE and DHS. But there is no "fixing" or "reforming" America's Gestapo which now has more power than the FBI. DHS and ICE must be completely abolished and all the records collected on American citizens and legal residents without a warrant must be destroyed as soon as the next non-Republican Party administration takes over the Executive Branch on 20 Jan 2029. The next POTUS could unleash a baggage of Executive Orders de-fanging ICE and DHS on Day One until Congress de-funds them later in 2029.

Also likely why Sec of Defense Hegseth got evasive in his recent Congressional testimony when asked about using the military on home soil.

We've been headed down this road since the Homeland Security bill passed after 9/11, if not before.
