Jamelle understands that abolishing ICE is the right course of action. He's said as much. But like so many of his liberal academic peers, he can't help but over intellectualize the problem, beating it until he achieves magical thinking.

Offering yet another concession to centrists in hopes that they finally see the light is silly.

jamelle @jamellebouie.net maybe an unpopular position on this website but i think the moderate dem focus on ICE training can be, with political pressure, the pathway to more fundamental reforms. rhetorically it is not too hard to move from "more training" to "turns out they're untrainable and we have to start all over." 11:24 AM • Jan 12, 2026
