As someone who volunteers in local Democratic politics I want to once again remind the Bluesky community that the Democratic base is your friend, and LIGHT YEARS ahead of the national party leaders on literally every issue
This poll shows that 74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting getting rid of the agency.
Any elected Democrat who wants ICE to exist is outside the mainstream of their party and the people they purport to represent.

I would appreciate current Republican senators to have a press conference that lets the U.S. and the world know you have plans to give Donald Trump some type of medical eval from a non-partisan doctor

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

![The Epstein estate also turned over another letter from the book that references Trump. It came from businessman and longtime Mar-a-Lago member Joel Pashcow, who made a crude joke about a woman that Trump and Epstein socialized with in the 1990s, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Pashcow letter included a photo of a posterboard-sized check for $22,500, which had been mocked up to appear that it was sent from Trump to Epstein. Beneath it, a handwritten caption said: "Jeffrey showing early talents with money + women sells 'fully depreciated' [name redacted] to Donald Trump for $22,500." The woman's name is redacted in the image.
Photo shows three people gripping a large check from left to right for $22,500: a woman with her face blacked out, a man in golfing attire in the center and a man with gray hair on the far right.) Seen in the Background is a golf course and people sitting around a patio table with a white tablecloth and white folding patio chairs.)
