I suggest you head to YouTube and search for 'ICE checkpoint' -- the videos there are quite illuminating. Somehow I doubt the people involved are #Resistance types, but I might be grossly mistaken.

By the way, there is a reason my wife hates for me to be driving when we hit the checkpoints 100 miles north of the border on I-25 out of Las Cruces. Or 60 miles north outside of Alamogordo heading north.

And yes, representing people pro-bono who are searched after refusing the questions is quite fun. Can be quite lucrative also.... Just saying.

You may want to walk back your blanket statement above. Anyone who has lived within 90 miles of the border is painfully aware of the specious 4th amendment grounds that ICE thrives on with the checkpoints. But.... I would hazard that only a fraction of people in the United States, let alone the whom support Republicans are really aware of this portion on the issue.
