Polls: Americans want federal agents defanged: the poils

 American polls repudiate almost everything that federal agents do!

Democratic proposals for reform of Immigration agencies 


earn supermajority support among U.S. voters


This level of support is UNREAL for Americans

WE URGE ALL OF THESE REFORMS -----AND MORE

Homeland Security must ALSO be completely defunded.  

The agents, their leadership, and the culture of these agencies have proven themselves so unspeakably violent, racist, anti-lbgtq, woman-hating, and completely lawless, that reform will fail. Proof is everywhere. A future blog post will explore this further

        DHS agents are committing far more crimes than immigrants.  Stats are below, not just the thousands of videos documenting their cruelty, 

"If there were law-enforcement agencies particularly ill-suited to anonymity, it would be Customs and Border Protection and the Border Patrol. From 2005 to 2024, nearly 5,000 CBP and Border Patrol officers were arrested, according to the journalist Garrett Graff, who testified about his findings to an accountability commission set up by the governor of Illinois. Information on the multitude of corruption-related charges faced by agents can be found on the CBP’s own website. “The crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States,” Graff writes.” Statistically speaking, “worst of the worst” seems to describe CBP and the Border Patrol as law-enforcement agencies better than it does the people they’re rounding up."  SOURCE

The Real Reason ICE Agents Wear Masks

Face coverings may work less to protect federal agents from danger than to make it easier for them to do unconstitutional things.

        DHS Agents are 5-6 times LESS LIKELY TO BE MURDERED THAN THE AVERAGE US RESIDENT!!!! 

( “The chance of an ICE or Border Patrol agent being murdered in the line of duty is about one in 94,549 per year, about 5.5 times less likely than a civilian being murdered.”) FROM THE ATLANTIC:  THE  real reason agents were masks (hint, so they can do unspeakable things).


DHS must be defunded completely. Important tasks like FEMA and TSA can be shifted to other agencies.


10 key demands from Democrats



In a letter sent on Feb. 4, 2026, Democratic congressional leaders Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer laid out their 10 key demands for the current fight in Washington over funding for the Department of Homeland Security, and thus Immigration and Customs Enforcement. If these demands aren’t met, Jeffries and Schumer say, they will refuse to fund DHS outright. The agency could partially shut down in two weeks when funding runs out.qu

I have spent a good amount of space here recently documenting how America has reached a tipping point on immigration and that appetite for reform — including abolishing ICE outright — has risen in the past year. And polls show there is intense anger at how Donald Trump has carried out his agenda of mass deportations over the last year; net favorability of ICE has recently fallen to an all-time low, averaging -20 across pollsters. So now that Democrats have leverage, it’s worth asking the question: What reforms do Americans actually want?


The list from Democrats contains a lot of ambitious reforms, including: prohibiting ICE and other immigration agents from wearing masks or other face coverings, requiring officers to display and verbalize identification, mandating body-worn cameras with clear storage and access rules, restricting enforcement near “sensitive locations” such as schools and medical facilities, requiring judicial warrants for certain entries and arrests, and prohibiting profiling based on appearance, language, or location. The package also includes provisions to preserve state and local authority and to standardize detention conditions. The demands notably stop short of the nuclear option (abolishing ICE outright).

Polls about the Democratic demands to bring federal agents into compliance with our rights, with the constitution, with our freedoms, our rights, and morals.


Collection of polling that show how American feel about the illegal, criminal behavior of ICE, CBP, EROS, and HSI agents in this country.
These ENORMOUS numbers are NET POSITIVE APPROVAL ratings FOR A POLICY.
THAT MEANS THAT 10% TO 87% MORE AMERICANS APPROVE OF A POLICY THAN DISAPPROVE OF IT. 
From the great analysis of G Elliot Morris.

From this article in Strength in Numbers Substack:

PLEASE SUPPORT the free press and independent journalists like G Elliot Morris if you can afford.  Even a dollar a month can make a difference.
