Kavanaugh Stop

When ICE agents (US Immigration and Customs Enforcement) violently harass or detain US citizens on the basis of racial profiling, particularly if they have a Latino appearance.

Named after Justice Brett Kavanaugh due to his comments in Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo that immigration stops are a brief, minor inconvenience for US citizens. His assertion was ridiculous even under the facts of the case in question, and were repeatedly proven wrong in the aftermath.
