John Thune on Calls to Abolish ICE: Dems Have ‘Just Gone off the Deep End on the Left’
‘They keep Americans safe’
EXCERPT:
HEMMER: "What do you think this ICE push is all about on the left?"
THUNE: "It's just — they've just gone off the deep end on the left. And you know, ICE does an important job, they keep Americans safe. Every single year they get criminals, bust them on drug charges, homicide, weapons offenses, assault, and -- and rescue a lot of victims of human trafficking. They have a very important job in keeping Americans safe. And the idea that somehow the left has concluded that they ought to be abolished, I mean, it’s really hard to understand or to fathom sort of what they are thinking in terms of — you know, if they want to keep Americans safe this is an important agency. It needs to be supported, not destroyed."
