**Hypocrisy on Display: Democrats Embrace Surveillance For ICE While Ignoring Border Security**

In a stunning display of political hypocrisy, Democrats are now demanding that ICE agents wear body cameras to avoid being labeled as “secret police.”

This sudden push for transparency from the party known for its years-long opposition to border security measures raises serious questions about their commitment to protecting American sovereignty.

For decades, Democrats have resisted efforts to enhance surveillance technology and border security under the guise of opposing “big government” tactics.


The Secure Fence Act of 2006, which aimed to deploy critical surveillance technology along the southern border, saw overwhelming opposition from Democrats.

When the House voted on this necessary legislation, 131 Democrats cast their votes against it, including prominent figures like Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff.

This trend continued as recent as July 2017, where a comprehensive border enforcement package faced an almost unanimous “no” from Democratic lawmakers.

Despite their claims of favoring "smart technology" over physical barriers, their consistent rejection of funding for surveillance tools indicates a reluctance to support any measure that might enforce immigration laws effectively.

In stark contrast, the same Democrats are now attempting to present themselves as champions of transparency, but only when it suits their interests.

The irony is compounded by recent revelations that nearly one-third of the cameras in the government’s border monitoring system are non-operational.

Yet, there were no public outcries or urgent calls for action from Democratic leaders to remedy this situation, highlighting their selective concern regarding surveillance capabilities.

This contradiction serves as a clear reminder that the Democratic Party’s rhetoric and actions do not align when it comes to safeguarding the nation's borders.

With the U.S. facing an illegal immigration crisis exacerbated by their policies, the focus should be on reinforcing the country's defenses rather than applying surveillance measures only as a tool against enforcement officers.

As the nation navigates pressing issues around illegal immigration, it's imperative that we prioritize the integrity of our borders over partisan politics.

Let’s not forget the magnitude of the situation—over 10 million undocumented individuals entered the U.S. during the previous administration, a crisis that many Democrats now seem eager to ignore while shifting the blame.

Americans deserve a government that prioritizes their safety and security—not one that plays politics with our borders.
