Let’s remember that last summer Seth Magaziner was one of 75 Democrats who voted to “express gratitude to ICE”. Call and demand he publicly reverse this position and oppose further funding to ice and back real accountability.
If we really do live in a democracy, now is the time to prove it. Abolishing ICE, universal healthcare, calling for an end to support of Israel’s genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians…these are all issues that Americans care about and it’s about time these beliefs are reflected in our “leadership.” Let’s be loud and show our members of Congress that the people’s choice is the upholding of our constitutional and fundamental human rights!
This is a tricky issue, One reason Trump got elected was the perception, true or not, that Biden had lost control of the border, everybody was claiming "asylum," people were overstaying visa and getting lost, the immigration courts were overwhelmed, and more caravans were coming.
Now, ICE is indeed out of control and dangerous, but like it or not, Americans mostly oppose open borders, and if not ICE enforcing immigration laws then what? To win elections in much of the country I think we need to be clear about another way to enforce immigration laws if we say abolish ICE
The answer is compreshensive immigration reform, which Democrats have long supported, but repugs have been blocking since at least the GW Bush administration.

Such a shame! They should all be primaried! There’s a growing list of Democrats who should lose their seats 🙃
Mussolini had Blackshirts, Hitler Brownshirts, trump's ICE is Camo shirts.
Agreed with your screed.
We are headed down a dark path here.
How to stop it with the uniparty bought and
paid-for by hidden interests is the question.
If you have a plausible solution in mind, I would
love to hear it. Pointing out the obvious is only the
beginning. Strike-up the band!
