True, but a twisting of the truth. In context, Vance clearly meant absolute immunity from state and local prosecution for actions taken as federal.Yep. Memo in link 2. Declaration by the VP in link one. You are a troll.
JD Vance: Ice has absolute immunity
An over-statement of the Supremacy Clause and USC 1442, which allows a federal officer charged with a crime allegedly committed while on duty to move his case to federal court.
They are not immune from federal prosecution as Vance clarified later.
So the claim that ice agents are being told that they have absolute immunity is a false claim.
Blatantly false.
Your article's complaint and the complaint from Democrats about ICE warrants is based on ICE's use of administrative warrants.
You can disagree with administrative warrants and present your arguments against them. But if LEO'S use administrative warrants, it is completely false to say "without warrants."
That is two of your claims. Do you have better backup for the rest?
To discuss something counterfactual, suppose all that you said was true; that the administration had ordered agents to do all of those things. Do you realize that that would give them qualified immunity based on following their training?
There was a case where a trigger happy cop shot an unarmed man, because he reached back to pull up his shorts while the cop was making him crawl toward him. No resistance, no gun visible, no one yelling "gun, gun, gun!" He got off scott free because dammed if he didnt produce a training manual that said if someone appears to be reaching for something to shoot them.
I'm sure there is a way to blame Trump for that one also, though.
