House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan pretends he’s never seen any of the stories in the news about the ICE thugs out there roughing up journalists and United States citizens. Jordan made an appearance on this Sunday’s State of the Union on CNN, and was continually pushed by host Dana Bash over the conduct of ICE agents.
BASH: I want to ask you about a flood of videos that we’re all seeing on social media showing immigration officers across the U.S. using pretty aggressive tactics. There was one from Friday showing agents pinning a Chicago TV station employee to the ground. She was later released without charges. Another shows ICE agents shooting an unarmed pastor in the head with pepper balls. There were countless more showing agents tackling people, pulling them from cars, shoving journalists, detaining U.S. citizens, questioning their citizenship.
Do you have any concerns, as you see all this, about how ICE and other immigration agencies are conducting themselves?
