I never understand when people will finally be outraged but I'm glad people are outraged about this. Hopefully they learn that democrats have been doing this to 5 year olds too, just more quietly. This system is evil and must be abolished. No reform is acceptable.

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed.

Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.
NEW: DHS appropriations bill funding ICE passes 220-207

7 Democrats voted YES on the bill:
- Jared Golden
- Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
- Henry Cuellar
- Tom Suozzi
- Laura Gillen
- Don Davis
- Vicente Gonzalez

One Republican voted NO: Thomas Massie

meanwhile Patty Murray's over there negotiating MORE money for ICE
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.

It continues to astound the response to SARS2 is a collective shrug, as if no one’s aware previously there was a deadly SARS1. (It was contained at least in part because we had a functioning CDC then.) On top of that, the loss of smell & taste = NEUROLOGICAL DAMAGE—not a simple “stuffy nose.” #COVID
I was in grad school during SARS, so when I heard about "Wuhan pneumonia," I knew something big was going on. When "losing sense of taste/smell" was identified as a common symptom — because neurological damage — I thought "oh heck no; I'm having none of that!"

Little has changed in the years since.
