This is not a bug, but a feature. Human rights violations is the point of funding these assholes to the tune of billions.

I know right wingers who would cry afoul at this.
Oh daymn, this is straight from the mouth of the executive director of amnesty international
ICE is fundamentally broken and cannot be fixed. For the U.S. government to have an immigration enforcement system that complies with international human rights law and standards, ICE needs to be abolished and we need to start over.
We meed to end the Patriot Act. Targeting just ICE is pointless.
It’s not pointless.
Don’t let perfect be the enemy of the good. We can work on radical solutions while also targeting the biggest offenders specifically
We need to target our oligarchs and end Citizens United and attack wealth inequality. Then work down the line of human rights, including abolishing ICE.
Inb4 Amnesty gets classified as a terrorist group by the US government
Because strongly worded letters from a humanitarian organization are absolutely going to change Trump’s mind.
Amnesty has done amazing work historically, which were used as evidence in international criminal cases. And helped guide other countries foreign policies.
If one (or, hopefully many) other country views this report and decides to issue sanctions against the US for human rights violations, it’s a very useful report.
