The Right-Wing Militia Leader Who Opposes ICE
Briefly

The Right-Wing Militia Leader Who Opposes ICE
""To call such people criminals for lacking official permission""
""is to forget the moral law of God, the historical truth of our own founding, and the Constitutional ideals that continue to define justice.""
""When it comes to the more humanitarian side of it, I think the left has it much more correct than the nationalist right.""
Ammon Bundy rose to prominence through two armed standoffs and became a leading figure in the Patriot Movement, embraced by some mainstream Republicans. Bundy self-published an essay titled "The Stranger" that called the Trump administration's treatment of undocumented immigrants a moral failure and argued that labeling migrants as criminals ignores moral and constitutional ideals. After recent killings tied to federal immigration enforcement, Bundy described ICE's conduct as resembling tyranny and compared the policies to the internment of Japanese Americans. Bundy retains right-wing antipathies, calling Democrats "communist-anarchists" and labeling Republicans "nationalists," yet his immigration stance risks isolating him.
