<p>Whenever you see what <a href="/tags/ice/" rel="tag">#ICE</a> is doing in front of cameras, you must imagine what they&#x27;re doing where nobody can see them--like in the concentration camps the USA is building. It&#x27;s easy to read those words and much harder to fathom what they mean; that this is happening in our day and age, in what until recently was believed to be a first world country. &quot;Abolish ICE&quot; doesn&#x27;t go nearly far enough in my view.</p>

Ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee Bennie G. Thompson said in a statement: “ICE officials have told us that an apparent biometric match by Mobile Fortify is a ‘definitive’ determination of a person’s status and that an ICE officer may ignore evidence of American citizenship — including a birth certificate — if the app says the person is an alien.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/BHoeAL" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>flip.it/BHoeAL</a></p><p><a href="/tags/technology/" rel="tag">#Technology</a> <a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#Tech</a> <a href="/tags/ice/" rel="tag">#ICE</a> <a href="/tags/usnews/" rel="tag">#USNews</a> <a href="/tags/trumpadministration/" rel="tag">#TrumpAdministration</a> <a href="/tags/immigration/" rel="tag">#Immigration</a></p>
