Congressional Democratic leaders are asking ICE to agree to reforms, promising to vote for $11 billion in funding for the agency if it does so. ICE has every reason to concede to the demands — then ignore them once the funding bill passes.
If not controlled opposition, why controlled opposition shaped?
Dem leaders yet again drop the ball that was handed to them on a silver platter.
Not good enough.
If there was an award for understatement, you’d deserve one.
Democrats are fucking worthless
Your entire fucking government is worthless; burn it all down and re-build.
Many of us are trying but so many are comfortable with the privileges they have by keeping the status quo. They’ll talk one thing and support the opposite. The types that will support the oppressed in a movie then vote for the oppressor in real life.
Here’s what I want Republicans and Democrats to explain - make it make sense how ICE needs all this funding. How did they possibly get by before?
They need funding to build more genocide sites
Perhaps NY’s 8th will vote this spineless, compromised shill out of office in November.
Hakeem Jeffries is up for reelection this November. Currently, he has only one June 23 primary challenger, Vance Bostic. This honestly looks like Jeffries will win in a landslide.
Schumer will continue to mutter his goddam inanities for years, as he isn’t up for reelection until November 2028.
They won’t
“Why is it always these 2?”
Yes, I know they are the party leadershit.
Please primary these 2 clowns
Neoliberals only have a problem with authoritarianism when they’re not in control.
They don’t want to destroy the ring like Gandalf, they want to hide in a hole like Smeagol until they learn to use it.
These useless morons
Honestly I’m on the fence about yanking the DHS funding. Trump is just going to fund ICE through other piles of money that he got in the BBB and that he’ll just start cutting other more critical services. Like FEMA, which is under the DHS.
If the Dems can effectively communicate that Trump is using FEMA, TSA, and coastguard money for ICE, then they should cut funding. But I’m not particularly confident about the Dems ability to communicate this. Hell, a lot of people don’t even realize that Trump can still fund ICE if Dems holdback DHS funding. They have not effectively communicated this.
