I was with you until "until." Abolish ICE.

Though that may be the most incremental progress Bernie expects to be possible.

    No. At all. Not another penny. At all. Ever.

    And ban every field agent from ever working for the government or local law enforcement in the future. No renaming and keeping most of the staff. No shuttling them off to be brown shirts elsewhere. They're all tainted.

    Chuck Schumer, on the other hand, says "Let's start with tacitly supporting ICE and move right as we negotiate."

    It doesn't matter what any of them say. What matters is what they've been doing, as a unit, and will do, as a unit.

    I’m glad they are including Miller in this. He needs to be run out of the country.

    Remember when Congress took all the funding away from NPR that was already budgeted to them? Why is no one talking about rescinding funding for ICE?

    PeeWee Himmler is behind most of this administrations worst policies, including the family separation abomination in the first term.

    He is about the most repellant human on the planet, and the Dems should make him a primary focus of the Midterm campaign for EVERY candidate. Talk about him a lot, the way MAGAs have always looped in Pelosi or AOC or Omar into their propaganda.

    Tie PeeWee Himmler directly to Trump, and demonize him to Hell, where he belongs. Make the little pussy cry.

    That's a joke right? Their current budget is magnitudes larger than any budget they've ever had before.

    Talk is cheap, Bernie. That bill already passed the house, are you gonna stop it passing in the Senate?

    Sigh no Bernie... No more money for ICE AT ALL EVER AGAIN. Slash the DHS budget, they're not doing their fucking jobs right at all and don't deserve anymore leeqay. This is how you know Bernie is also not good enough to meet the moment.
