Sen. Bernie Sanders also demanded “fundamental reforms” to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, saying they are “terrorizing” US communities.
US Sen. Bernie Sanders on Wednesday demanded the removal of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller—a key architect of Donald Trump’s violent mass deportation campaign—as well as concrete reforms in exchange for any new funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
In remarks on the Senate floor, Sanders (I-Vt.) called ICE a “domestic military force” that is “terrorizing” communities across the country. The senator pointed specifically to the agency’s ongoing activities in Minnesota and Maine, where officers have committed horrific—and deadly—abuses.
Sanders said that “not another penny should be given” to ICE or Customs and Border Protection (CBP) “unless there are fundamental reforms in how those agencies function—and until there is new leadership at the Department of Homeland Security and among those who run our immigration policy.” The senator has proposed repealing a $75 billion ICE funding boost that the GOP approved last summer, an end to warrantless arrests, the unmasking of ICE and CBP agents, and more.
No I saw a lot of former Bernie bros switch their vote to trump after Hillary got nominated. That’s how pissed they were at the system.
Out of the hundreds of Bernie bros I know I don’t know a single Bernie bro that voted for Trump.
If these imaginary people were tricked into voting for Trump so easily then they will easily be tricked again the next election cycle.
He was very popular in the Midwest. It’s the northeast Dem elites that rejected him
He was popular in Omaha and Lincoln. Everywhere else he didn’t have a chance.
You clearly proven you don’t know what you’re talking about and have never been in a rural area
I have definitely been to rural Nebraska and that is what I am basing my statements on.
The reason the “blue dot” exists is because the rest of Nebraska is red. Which is the rural areas. This is verifiable and it contradicts what you are saying.
This proves you are making shit up.
Wrong. He won in wider margins in grand island, northwest and southeast he won where factories are not corporate interests
“Won” what?
Those same people would have voted for Trump 4 and/or 8 years after a Bernie victory
Quite littlerally:
Mamdani went down to the street after the Democrats failed in 2024. He asked voters who had voted for Trump “why?”
He structured his campaign on the top three answers to the question “why?”, albeit, in a democratic socialist fashion.
He won the Trump voters back.
Exactly, they’re feckless. They don’t have any core beliefs.
If Bernie wins after Obama, the GOP is dead for good, no more majorities. The supreme Court goes left, no Trump picks. Hence no dictatorship
