Yes, you are doing the math right: if these seven Democrats had voted no, it wouldn't have passed.
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

Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947 (over Truman's veto) to make general strikes so incredibly difficult to organize that there hasn't been one since.

That there is a general strike happening in a major US city on such short notice is nothing short of a miracle.
National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

if there are pro-ICE and anti-ICE sides, these guys fall squarely in the former by every measure that counts.

if they had power tomorrow, they’d reinstate the same ATD program we had, which is the main source of intel MAGA is using today to hunt down and arrest children.

Good’s killer was a 10-year ICE veteran, himself a trainer, and recorded the killing. What good would more training and more cameras have done? By @ahjohnson.bsky.social
In response to the Renee Good killing, Dems propose ICE reforms that would have done nothing to prevent the Renee Good killing

Seriously, though, Bluesky's moderation is WAY too trigger happy.

"I hope you get mauled by a mountain lion" is in no way a threat, encouraging personal harm, etc. I have no idea how it can possibly be a violation of anything.
Wait what’s the deal with the strikes? What happens on the third strike? In my defense, Klaus was really an asshole.

Kind of wild how DHS's social media posts alternate between triumphalist white supremacy and whining about how bystanders heckle ICE agents.
January 22, 2026 at 4:56 PM
Okay, but that doesn't mean you just ignore ICE (or worse, vote to continue funding it), which is the current Democratic strategy.
People are waving around 50/50 polling on abolish ICE and in the same poll Trump’s is like 30 points under water on affordability. It’s not at all crazy for professional politicians to think there’s a bigger advantage in talking about the latter!

Noticing a trend from my Facebook feed: Lots of Republicans/conservatives in cities subjected to Trump's occupations (L.A., Minneapolis, Charlotte, Chicago) are angry and turning radically anti-ICE.

But Republicans/conservatives everywhere else don't believe them.

Horror films have traditionally been left out of the Oscars, but when nominations are announced for the 98th Academy Awards, Ryan Coogler’s vampire tale “Sinners” could make history.

Is there a competition among Democratic Senators on who can be the most out of touch?
Yes it’s cold in Minnesota—but we embrace it. John and I were in Hastings with Mayor Fasbender for Hockey Day Minnesota to watch my alma mater, Wayzata High School, take on Rogers. Photo taken with parents right after their son scored a goal!

Senator Gallego weighs in as well. Note that at the start of 2025 he was considered a *moderate* on immigration and co-sponsored the Laken Riley Act. Him and many other Dems have been increasingly horrified at what ICE is doing and shifted away from a "more enforcement" focus.

Democratic leaders apparently bought into the idea that 2024 was a permanent political realignment and not just another election where *worldwide* incumbent parties were punished (rightly or wrongly) for pandemic-caused inflation.
The Democratic leaders in Congress have repeatedly shown that they have no interest in leading an effective opposition.

They have no appetite for the legislative trench warfare this moment requires. They don't even have the will to speak about it clearly. They just want to be left alone.
We have to get rid of Jeffries and Schumer. We have to. It’s unendurable that these men are the most prominent Democrats of the moment. They are two of the most broadly undistinguished men I could imagine in politics, zero fire, zero fight, zero zeal, machine politicians with sinecures.

The American elite cannot comprehend that the president is racist clinically-insane megalomaniac.

It isn't a conspiracy. It's because power-broking elites are by and large stupid. They're only elite through a combination of luck and mostly-undiagnosed sociopathic tendencies.
This stuff isn't even so much to prop Trump up, but a cope to prop up the fake, imaginary false reality that our elites prefer to live inside, where Trump is just another normal statesman with normal policy disagreements instead of a fascist tyrant who shits his pants.

It is not hyperbole to say the Trump regime is trying to incite a civil war.
