The screenshots of internal documents show positive results:

"[...] resulted in 6 stash houses being identified"

"[resulted in the] identification of 135 stash houses"

"692 apprehensions"

Collab with FBI, USBP...

etc., etc.

I don't see how this is supposed to look bad for ICE. It actually makes them look good.

It is the "they are terror group kind of like Gestapo" part. It is the "murder and then celebrate murder" part. The "kidnap people, beat them, throw them out" part. It is the "run out of the car, kidnap citizen" part. It is the "throw flashbang and teargas on law obeying people" part. It is the "blind a legal protester". With honorable mention of beating a female woman for going to doctor.

It is also the "their violence is staggering" and "they operations have no respect to law" and "they actually intentionally terrorize citizens too" parts.

All mentioned in article and well documented at this point.

I didn't see anything in there about working with the judicial system to ensure due process. Identifying and apprehending people is a bad thing when there is no due process.

What metric do you want to judge ICE by if not their number of apprehensions, stash houses raided, etc.?

People incorrectly apprehended, assaulted, or killed seems like it might be a value you want in that equation.
