Is the reason for the ramping up of ICE agents for election day

For voter intimidation, poll watching and checking ID'S? I know this is illegal but this is a regime that does not follow a court order.

It’s low that we will eventually come to agreement on immigration, codify it, and implement it.

They’ve accepted it and are moving on, making sure there’s nothing needed to be agreed upon anymore. They’ll just do 30 years of policy implementation in 3.

Much like Israel… no Gaza, no problem. What’s to agree on? It’s done.
