By moving ATF/DEA/FBI/etc. agents to immigration enforcement, Trump is creating a largely unaccountable, loyal force that will be accustomed to disregarding constitutional rights when he inevitably calls upon them to oppress citizens and disrupt elections.

Anyone who thinks the cruelty we see from ICE can only be explained by J6ers hasn't been paying attention. This is what ICE has always been. You are hearing about it now because major media is finally putting it on the front pages. Absence of coverage does not mean absence of abuses.
