“Renee Goodman [sic], Alex Pretti – there are no words,” DeLauro said.

“You said there were no words after the murder of those two individuals,” said Rev. Jack Perkins Davidson. “I think the words are ‘Abolish ICE.’”

Senate Democrats proposing to demand things that are already law, or that nobody will enforce; and in terms of symbolism they won't even go to Minnesota themselves. Couldn't have demonstrated their uselessness more comprehensively.

One reason you can't just tinker with ICE/CBP is the whole thing is facially illegitimate. The intent is rotten. It's run by a white supremacist maniac and will continue producing white supremacist maniac results

If Chuck Schumer was dealt a full house he’d bet a nickel
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.

2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.

3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

The GOP is allowed to eviscerate and destroy organizations like the CFBP, CDC, NIH and CPB that serve all Americans but Dems are squeamish about even cutting the astronomical funding of ICE which serves naked GOP interests

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

It feels like I've run out of things to say about the Democrats.

When we're almost a full year into this and they're still voting for Trump's nominees, I'm not sure how you can make the case that the party is salvageable.

Truly amazing that any time the democrats have to bite the bullet and do something that ruins countless lives, there's always *just* enough votes to get it done, but if there is a vote on something that would actually improve people's lives, they are always one vote short. Crazy how that happens.

just saying: it's possible that "I'm gonna say i'm standing up for healthcare and feeding the poor, ride a wave of furious mass mobilization to huge election wins, then cave for zero concessions and go on vacation" is the beginning of a world-historical masterstroke. but also possible that it isn't,

There is no opposition party in the United States. Any official resistance is performative.
