Why exactly have ICE been given limitless power? Facial recognition is at best right more than half the time, but many studies have shown it to be consistently faulty leading to many wrong ID's. What is the point of a database with incorrect biometric data connected to a person?

Removal of administrative restraint is different than limitless power.

I think it remains to be seen how broader US society responds to the approach being taken. Hard to say how close the Senate will be next year.

"Plenary authority" of the "unitary executive" is manifested as acceleration of power by continuous, overwhelming lawlessness to normalize deviancy with a feckless Congress and supportive supreme judiciary.
