However,
I have this itching suspicion that the name "The Squad" may come back to haunt us/them.

Part of me would be proud to wear an article of clothing with the the name, but the other part sees the trap under the cheese.

They're playing up the 'infested' meme about anything and everything liberal or of color...from the Squad to sanctuary cities to the home districts of those that are investigating them. It's not a dog whistle...it's a freaking bullhorn.
