Garrett Graff on ICE/CBP: The problem isn't the restrictions on the monster; the problem is the monster.

Bluesky post and column:

The problem of ICE/CBP reform is we have a monster rampaging through our democracy and are trying to restrict *which* cities it can pillage and *how many* civilians it can eat. The problem isn’t the restrictions on the monster; the problem is the monster. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/six-ways-t...

1. Yes. This is *exactly* the problem and the exact kind of reframing Dems should be doing

I was instinctively repulsed by Schumer’s assertions about reforming ICE but couldn’t say why. THIS is why!!!
