Hard to blame this squarely on the Republicans. Access to private license plate readers was granted under the Biden admin, and no doubt each of the last four administrations played some part.

To me, the CPB and ICE are looking more and more like an American Gestapo.

Apropos of anything else, this access was granted in 2017, and Biden might be surprised to learn he was President then, not Trump.

Nope.

Nice try tho. The "both sides bad" argument used to work, not anymore.
