The mask is fully off.

Indian born Democrat Rep. Shri Thanedar just announced he is introducing a bill to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement, declaring that the agency needs to “go away.”

“At this stage, folks, ICE is beyond reform,” Thanedar said. “ICE is totally out of control. And this week, I intend to introduce a bill to abolish ICE. We need to make ICE go away.”

That is not reform. That is surrender.

ICE exists for one reason. To enforce federal immigration law and remove criminals who have no legal right to be in this country. When a member of Congress says that agency should be erased entirely, he is saying the law itself should be optional.

This is exactly what Americans have been watching for years. Democrats do not want borders. They do not want enforcement. They want chaos dressed up as compassion.

Abolishing ICE means more fentanyl, more trafficking, more violent criminals released back into communities, and more Americans paying the price. That is not hypothetical. We have already lived through it. Removing law enforcement only empowers lawlessness and punishes citizens who play by the rules.

Thanedar’s comments are also revealing in another way. He did not say ICE needs oversight or accountability. He said it needs to disappear. That tells you this is ideological, not practical.

This is the same party that claims to care about workers, families, and safety, while simultaneously trying to dismantle the very agencies tasked with keeping the country secure.

Americans should be paying attention. When Democrats say abolish ICE, they mean abolish the border. And when the border disappears, so does the rule of law.
