No. If you are not all in on abolishing ICE and trying every single member of the organization for crimes against humanity, I am not voting for you, if we even get elections again. That’s the fucking floor. These people must be held to account.

This is good: Rep Eric Swalwell tells me House Dems are now discussing making an end to mask-wearing a precondition for ICE funding.

"When we are in the majority, the masks are coming off," he says.

This is the next frontier in anti-Trump resistance.

The Democrats, finally finding the courage to only fund the gestapo if they show their faces while they carry out Nazi agendas. Inspiring.

Or, hear me out, we could *not* fund the people kidnapping our neighbors, relatives, and friends off the street, while violently attacking the people protesting the kidnappings.

My guy, jackboot thugs are currently terrorizing blue cities via kidnapping people and the best the Democratic party can come up with is for them to stop wearing masks and you're presenting this as a reasonable option...jc I hate all of you.

What the fuck, no, if they're in the majority they shouldn't be funding ICE at all. The fact that they're even entertaining the idea, just with minor conditions, should be a GIANT red flag to you people
