Abolish ICE

Ensure they don't get to go home at night.

Absolute immunity > Qualified immunity

Attempting to usurp the authority of a judge should absolutely be grounds for the ICE agents qualified immunity to be quashed, and this arrest is clearly retaliation for not allowing the ICE arrest team to violate due process.
