The DHS was established in the panic following 9/11. If they're knocking on doors trying to intimidate dissidents, it seems clear that it has outlived its usefulness (if it ever had any) and should be dismantled.

You'd think that would be something small-government republicans progressive democrats could agree on...

You would think. But both sides also feel like they have to look strong on security, or the other side is going to beat them up in the next election.
