will need a large force to keep so many ~~slaves~~, er "criminals" in line and prevent them from running away like slaves used to do.

And so...the new bill will make ICE the largest "law enforcement" agency in the land.

Maybe next they'll pass a Fugitive Slave Act to help keep the "criminals" where they belong. And some slave patrols would also help.

MAGA like 1850.
