Dems have been calling for ICE body cameras, but as I noted a few days ago...
Body cameras have far more consistently proven that law enforcement acted correctly than otherwise. There’s a reason that Secretary Noem is happy to go along with the idea and why most police departments realized that body cams were a good thing once the impact became clear. In both the Renee Good and Alex Pretti cases, it was cameras and body cameras that provided the damning evidence that dismantled the ‘bloody shirt’ that the media was waving hysterically after the two radicals attacked law enforcement.
Now, the Dems are already pivoting to warning about the dangers of ICE body cameras…
A push to put body cameras on all ICE agents has Democrats running headlong into a new problem: fear that the technology will provide another avenue for mass surveillance of protesters. Congressional Democratic leaders have made universal use of body cameras one of their prime demands for imposing accountability on Immigration and Customs Enforcement, especially after federal agents fatally shot two American citizens in Minneapolis. But after an outcry from privacy advocates that surveillance tools will allow ICE agents to identify and track protesters, Democrats are also calling for restrictions on how the body cameras can be used. “Privacy advocates”. “Mass surveillance”.
What they really mean is that having footage of their riots on cameras would be bad for their rioters who are also their activist base. Having actual footage of ICE raids hurts their purpose, dismantling immigration law enforcement, more than it helps it.
If we didn’t have video footage of Good ramming law enforcement and Pretti assaulting law enforcement, all we’d have are the lies that the media tells.
That’s what they’re calling “mass surveillance”.
They’re worried ICE body cameras are a means of capturing evidence of their crimes.

Or in other words “We want XYZ, now!” “Not like thaattt!”
They’re just never happy are they.
but they said body cams are good and required ,LOL
“They’re just never happy are they.”

Not when their narrative is threatened.
The issue is never the issue.
Their fundamental flaw: never happy even when they get their way. The feeling of being unhappy and agitating until they get what they want is the only one they understand and are comfortable with.
Unintended consequences. They never learn.
Bkmk
Dismantling immigration law enforcement has been a long term democrat goal.
Even a beaver can take down a tree if it gnaw long enough.
Yeah because its an unbiased observer.
All federal agents should have to wear body cams.
Liberals and the ACLU (but I repeat myself...) were all for bodycams until it showed exactly what most LE officials have said for years. That criminals are violent A-holes who lie about the circumstances surrounding their police interactions.
