    How would you go about disarming ICE?

    I am not talking about the politics, I am talking about the logistics, how do you prevent these thugs from simply refusing to give up their weapons and facilities?

    These are people who are loyal to Trump and his merry gang of dickheads, do you really think they will follow a presidential order by someone other than Trump?

      It would be a federal organization disobeying direct orders, read them the insurrection act and send the national guard after them.

      Most of the ice employees are spineless cowards who just want a little taste of power over someone. I don’t imagine many of them are going to risk a federal charge for the cause.

      How? Pretty sure it’d normally be illegal for them to keep government equipment, but if not, make it so. Then arrest them if the keep it. This isn’t hard.

      We need a Justice Department that would be willing and able to enforce it. Which may be some time from now unless something else happens from the citizens side.
