"Despite President Donald Trump’s repeated claims, Democrats are not advocating open borders, not even the ones who are calling to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The small minority of Democrats in Congress calling for the end of ICE have all said they would like to have many of ICE’s functions redistributed to other, existing government agencies. None has called for abandoning border enforcement."

So let's "dissect" this pablum and bullshit ...
Start with "dismantling ICE" .... "redistribute" their LE function to what agencies?
1. The "local police" of the sanctuary cities?
2. The local/county/state police who cannot/will not enforce federal laws?
3. Which Federal agency will be given the task of rounding up illegal aliens who are sneaking into the country and/or fraudulently entered the country on a VISA and remained after their VISA has expired? FBI, DEA, CIA, U.S. military, Marshal's Service, Capitol Police, and/or ________________.
Attacking ICE is merely an indirect assault on closed borders. The INS has for decades controlled our borders along with Customs officers who monitor contraband.
The Democrats OFFICIALLY in Congress as a group OPPOSE A WALL!
So if the goofballs running your neighborhood association decided to pass an "ordinance" that forbid doors on houses you would be "ok" with that? (You can argue you have to have walls to hold up the roof, but you really don't!, so I won't go so far as to suggest they pass one to prohibit walls on houses.)
