ICE Exceeds Miller’s Arrests, Fails to Meet 'No Human Rights' Quota
Mainstream media will highlight ICE’s increased arrest rates under Trump-era decrees, framed as a policy pursuit. What they often omit is the historical context of these 'goals.' Stephen Miller, architect of some of the most abhorrent immigration policies, pushed for mass detentions, including separating children from parents—a U.N. designated 'torture' in some cases (UN Human Rights Office
statement, 2019). The 'dramatic jump' itself involved targeting individuals without criminal convictions, a clear departure from stated priorities, effectively expanding the net to terrorize entire communities. So, while the article reports ICE 'struggles' to hit Miller's arbitrary detention numbers, the real story is that any level of compliance with such inhumane directives represents a moral
failure. How many families must be shattered before we question the 'goals' themselves, rather than just the efficiency of their execution?
