ICE, DHS, and the Border Patrol precursors have historically treated native peoples with some of the most cruelty. This goes straight back to Bush, Reagan, even Eisenhower (Operation Wetback swept up a ton of First Nations people in the southern border states).
Really puts the exclamation point on how much of a lie “Immigration Enforcement” is as public policy. It’s ethnic cleansing and always has been. Anyone defending ICE is defending white supremacy.
Trade war too!

"What Cambridge Analytica observed was that when respondents were angry, their need for complete and rational explanations was also significantly reduced. In particular, anger put people in a frame of mind in which they were more indiscriminately punitive, particularly to out-groups. They would also underestimate the risk of negative outcomes. This led Cambridge Analytica to discover that even if a hypothetical trade war with China or Mexico meant the loss of American jobs and profits, people primed with anger would tolerate that domestic economic damage if it meant they could use a trade war to punish immigrant groups and urban liberals.” ― Christopher Wylie, Mindf*ck: Cambridge Analytica and the Plot to Break America, page 128, year 2019
