The article criticizes President Trump's immigration enforcement policies, labeling them as political theater aimed at scoring points rather than ensuring national security. It argues for a humane immigration system that balances growth and public safety, and emphasizes that effective enforcement can be achieved without targeting non-criminal undocumented immigrants. The author, drawing on extensive experience in federal law enforcement, warns that current practices undermine constitutional protections and trust in law enforcement, potentially creating long-term risks to community safety if not corrected by the Biden administration.
Federal law enforcement under President Trump is engaged in dangerous political theater, with high-profile arrests of non-citizen students, workers and parents set up to score political points more than to protect national security.
Right now, the government is burning thousands of federal law enforcement hours on operations that privilege political objectives over public safety, attacking constitutional protections like due process and free speech as they do.
