No ICE shouldn't be abolished. In a larger way it's still doing the job it's supposed to in dealing with gangs a drugs illegally entering the country. What I think should happen is all the panty waisted idiots in DC that keep getting elected based on lies, like immigration reform that's been kicked down the road since Bush Sr. was VP, get off their a$$3$ and quit complaining and bellyaching and forming committees to do investigations that are nothing more than busy work to keep them in office.
So now, go ahead and insert your usual liberal Juan Williams contrarian drivel that you repeat. You sound like the instructions on a bottle of shampoo, "Wash, rinse, repeat".
By any measure, it has NOT done the job that it was "created" for...and even more so when you consider the extra money spent over the way it was done before. No drugs are being kept out of the country in any way more than previously done.
"What I think should happen is all the panty waisted idiots in DC..." Notice how it has been mostly Republicans since the 90's.
And it has ALWAYS been Republicans resisting any kind of 'fix' to the so-called immigration problem. As mentioned before, a solution has been available since the 1950's in the form of H visas. H2 in particular addresses temporary visiting workers very well. So why is it there is no enforcement action against companies who use the "wink and a nod" approach with the Federal govt to NOT use that program? Because they would have to pay the minimum wage. They would be required to provide sanitary facilities, like porta-johns and a hand wash station for workers to use, and a 5 minute break from time to time to let them take a leak. And that would raise the cost of your avocado's a fraction of a penny.
In other words, they would have to obey the law, like so many are demanding of poor people who come here at the direct invitation of the "wink and nod" guys. But it is always easier to be cruel to poor people who can't afford lawyers to fight back...
And ICE, under Trump and Sessions direct control, are still breaking Federal law, like they have for months now. There are still hundreds of kids being detained WAY beyond the 20 day law requirement, and not being reunited with their parents in direct contradiction to a court order.
But that's ok with the Minions...it's just the kind of immoral, illegal, action that they condone, excuse, and expect from Trump.
So, yeah, if you believe in not having rule of law, are willing to excuse any kind of aberrant behavior, and just revel in the swamp that is the Trump regime, you are right - we should keep ICE. Otherwise, it should be abolished and functions returned where they came from.

Aww..."plaintive-bleat-of-the-tragically-hip" time once again...
