Politico: The most pro-deportation people in Washington just had a yacht party. The boozy gala drew conservatives who've served in Congress, the DOJ and ICE — all of whom share a goal of deporting

1 million-plus people a year.

At the far end of a dock on the banks of the Potomac, past protesters yelling SHAME! and holding signs like DEPORT HATE NOT PEOPLE, up a ramp, across a gangway and up a flight of stairs, about 200 of the most hard-line, anti-immigration people in Washington boarded a boat Thursday afternoon. It was, they believed, time to party.

The organizers of the event wanted to call it the U.S.S. Deportation, but no such boat was available, so they had to settle for renting out the Potomac Spirit — a massive, three-story yacht with open bars on every level that would attract lines throughout the evening. “Ahoy! This is the captain speaking,” piped a cheery voice, not emanating from an actual captain, but rather a video of a former DHS staffer in a captain’s hat. “Where are we going on this boat? Hopefully, to a political and policy destination of two commas in the deportation numbers.”

The boozy gala attracted conservatives who have served in Congress, the Justice Department and ICE — all of whom share a goal of deporting an unprecedented 1 million-plus people a year. Former GOP Reps. Steve King and Tom Tancredo reminisced about their time as rabble-rousers in the House, like when King literally built a border wall on the House floor to demonstrate the government could, too. Scott Mechkowski, the former deputy ICE field director in New York, held court on the rooftop deck, trading battle stories about his two-and-a-half decades leading deportation operations. Jeffrey Clark, the former acting assistant attorney general, mingled with an entourage, some of them wearing multicolored leis and flipping through printed-out policy playbooks from the Mass Deportation Coalition, as the group calls itself.
