I normally try to avoid commenting on politics because this account is tied to my identity and therefore my profession and it's generally not advisable to tie those things together.

So it is with no degree of lightness that I say that I agree and this concerns me gravely.

The time to be concerned was 10-15yr ago when these tactics were being normalized (if you take issue with the means) and the policies that teed up the current immigration showdown were being figured out (if you take issue with the end).

To paraphrase planting trees for shade, the second best time to be concerned is right now.
