ICE released 1000 detained immigrants into Southern Texas this week. What do you think?

Are y'all starting to see? None of this was ever about stopping illegal immigration. It's about manipulating public opinion.

"It is unclear why ICE stopped coordination efforts with shelter groups and immigrant advocates. Officials could not respond to NPR's requests for comment due to the government shut down.

An automatic email response from the agency explained, "All of ICE's public affairs officers are out of the office for the duration of the government shutdown. We are unable to respond to media queries during this period because we are prohibited by law from working.""
