It all started with the word homeland.
Dismantling DHS is an entirely achievable goal for Democrats at this point.
You can have Fox yell at you for being a radical leftist or whatever, but you're going to have endless images of paramilitary goons assaulting people on TV, and voters will associate you with wanting to end that.

🧵- Abolish ICE is the only serious, realistic solution. It's been rotten from its Bush-era start and is now entirely irredeemable just on basic good government grounds. You can't fix a lawless paramilitary force of brutal goons.

I made the case for abolishing ICE after ICE agent, Jonathan Ross, shot Renee Good, a mom dropping off her toddler at school, three times in the face after she smiled at him and tried to drive away.
You'll never guess what Trump and Vance did next.

Q: Is it your posture to put restrictions on ICE as a condition for funding DHS?
JEFFRIES: Renee Good should be alive. There was no justification. There are common sense measures that need to put in place so ICE can conduct itself in manner at least consistent w/ every other law enforcement agency

#ICE ‘s violence is no accident.
The #Trump regime is built on a fundamentally violent worldview, nourishing violent impulses within the national community & seeking out the most brutish among Americans to implement its draconian policies.

It is an abomination: our own government not trying to restore order but destroy it. Federal leaders actively trying to instill terror in their citizenry. The historical analogue is nighttime raids on black communities by white supremacist terrorists in the South. They’re Cossacks, they’re the Klan

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Jonathan Ross, who shot Renee Good in the face, is local. Derek Chauvin, who knelt on George Floyd's neck, is local.
State and local law enforcement know the communities they serve. They’ve built the trust and know how to keep us safe.
As Minnesotans express their first amendment rights, I encourage you to remain peaceful and know that local law enforcement has one goal in mind: your safety.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.
