The Cato Institute guys are really covering themselves in glory the last couple of days. Yesterday, one of them spread the lie toddlers were handcuffed by ICE and now today, this. Apparently, DHS and ICE trying to protect our borders is an 'occupying' army.
If you act like an occupying army long enough then the local people are going to treat you like an occupying army.

One of those is removing people here illegally.
You get dragged here so much. https://t.co/Zp4XvJ2wKr
One would think someone who is part of a 'think tank' would know this.

I don’t think any executive officer of a public interest nonprofit so openly advocates for lawlessness like this dude does.

Shocking that Cato retains its 501(c)3 status. https://t.co/GgULc3cPtA
Apparently, he wants all the cheap labor.
This guy is on a quixotic mission to make sure every American becomes anti-immigration. https://t.co/1f1dJXEn7Z

"Sure professional libertarians can be annoying, but no way they'd side with violent antifa types who've been going after federal facilities in liberal cities for years, right?"

No matter how little you think of the current CATO crew, they're actually worse. https://t.co/kjJEoFRRM3

These Libertarians are retarded. Congress enacted the laws that the executive branch is enforcing, which aligns precisely with its constitutional responsibilities. Just because you think the federal laws should be different gives you no right to obstruct, impede its lawful… https://t.co/5zDtfQRwDf

For once, the federal government is actually doing one of the things they are supposed to do.

They really don't get it. People want secure borders.
