ICE is doing all the SS / SD stuff (as in Schutzstaffel / Sicherheitsdienst ) and had gotten a lot of calls to see the department abolished during Trump's last term. One of the notable comparisons is how ICE is targeting immigrants who don't have violent felony records even though they had been ordered to only target those with violent felonies, which is how we ended up with impacted detention centers (through which infectious diseases ran rampant).
Compare this to the German SD who targeted all Jews regardless of an order to only go after those with criminal records.
Hopefully, ICE will overstay its welcome in these cities much the way the German occupation did in Paris France (or ICE did in Portland during the George Floyd protests) which tripled the active resistance within a week. If ICE chooses to be that brutal, and we stand by our neighbors as they are harassed, then at minimum they'll get chased out, and at best we'll actually see the department get shut down for turning into the propaganda poster of police brutality.
