Well the difference is that the Executive controls the enforcement of laws so they can just be selective with the enforcement. They won’t enforce the law when it comes to the Epstein files but they definitely will if the union get uppity and strikes.
“The brand new agents are idiots,” an experienced ICE agent assigned to homeland security investigations told me. This same sentiment was echoed by virtually everyone I talked to, with several conveying the view that Pretti’s death was the fault of some skittish young recruit who panicked when he heard the word “gun” (if that’s what happened).
What a load of shit. Johnathan Ross is a veteran agent of ICE.

Also according to Greg Bovino the guy that shot Alex Pretti is:
United States Border Patrol on-site commander Gregory Bovino said an officer who shot Pretti had been serving with the Border Patrol for eight years and had “extensive training as a Range Safety Officer”.
This entire piece sounds like an attempt to whitewash ICE and put the blame on nebulous “rookie” agents when it comes out that ICE has always been rotten.
I guess nothing happens if they say no. They can’t even strike, it’s illegal for them to do so.
Didn’t ICE already killed a bunch of people before the Minnesota ones?
According to this Guardian article, 25 people died in ICE custody in 2025. 7 people died in December alone. Was he not aware of these deaths when he voted to give them more money? What a fucking monster.
Well duh. They are the state propaganda channel, basically the RT of the US.

From 5 years ago. These guys are protesting with their guns out.
They are just trying to intimidate the protesters. They are a bunch of cowards walking in a herd to feel safe.
What’s more stupid is that even his imaginary friends voted against him.
This guy? No way.
Did they give him the crayons to color it in by himself?
using the military to engage civilian ships in Venezuelan waters with lethal force rather than using the cost guard for police actions.
So that’s illegal but the soldiers followed those orders and killed civilians. I don’t see how that’s a good look for what’s coming up.
Was he in the Philippines trying to avoid getting sent to the front? Or was he just being a dickhead on vacation?
I thought he sent it to Norway. Either way Norway doesn’t control Greenland and Denmark has no say in the Nobels.
Nah, he has ICE for that.
You think she asked for him to give it back? She probably traded it for a promise to lead Venezuela. And we all know how Trump keeps his promises.
I mean Colorado did try to have him removed off the ballot. The Supreme Court said they can’t do that.

So yea, people did try.
"A little party never killed nobody”
Didn’t it come out that some ICE goons don’t know how to read or write?
Democrats had the power to block funding for ICE, they voted for it. Democrats had the power to save healthcare subsidies, they caved for empty promises.
