Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

So.
To date, I have seen ONE Dem Rep in Congress call for ICE to be abolished. Ilhan Omar.
Not defunded. Not trained and restrained.
ABOLISHED.
Are there any others? If so, post them and let's get a count on the number of Dems in Congress.

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

Not a veteran. Not a politician, let alone POTUS.
However my oath of office as a commissioner on a city board called for me to swear to “support & defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign & domestic.” I took that oath very seriously & still do. It is imperative.
