During a discussion of the growing menace of unrestrained ICE agents on MS NOW early Thursday morning, legal analyst Lisa Rubin noted she came across a “use of force” internal memo that she was amazed someone thought was appropriate to write down.
After discussing a different bombshell memo that allows armed agents to enter homeswith just an administrative warrant, Rubin told the panel of “Morning Joe” what one of her own investigations turned up.
“A couple of weeks ago, my colleague Fallon Gallagher and I were looking at ICE policy and CBP Customs and Border Patrol policy on the use of force. We were surprised that the memo existed in a public format, and only because it was an exhibit in litigation that exists right now about the use of force against protestersand other citizens.”
Were it not for that, would we find it on ICE’s website? Absolutely not,” she pointed out.
“They have no obligation to publish it and oftentimes take great pains to keep these things from the public. But what MS NOW’s Ken [Dilanian] described goes well beyond that. It’s not just keeping it from the public, it’s preventing people within the agency from even maintaining a copy of their own.”
“That suggests a level of secrecy around this that goes well beyond simply having internal policies for internal consumption only,” she cautioned.
