All of these reports of ICE being a lawless organization is feeding into trump's plan for total control

The first violent reaction against ICE will result in trump declaring Martial Law and suspending Habeas Corpus.

That's why ICE is doing what they're doing: They're provoking us, they're setting us up for trump to come in and "save" America
