ICE tactics blatantly unconstitutional

[struggle4progress]

ICE targeting students who have criticized the Trump administration is “blatantly unconstitutional,” warns professor of democracy Lucan Ahmad Way. “You can't simply racially profile or profile people based on their national origin and start pulling them off the streets,” says Joyce Vance. “That, by definition, is a police state.” With an explosion of new funding for ICE, as part of the GOP’s megabill, there’s yet more reason to be alarmed. With a rapid expansion of ICE, the danger, says Vance, “is that the people in charge are no longer the career officials with training who understand loyalty to the Constitution. These are quite literally people who understand loyalty to Donald Trump.”
