PS: this is more than Noem; it’s systemic and this is the necrotic fruit born of it.

There has not always been an ICE. There need not be an ICE.

Abolish ICE. That would be a start. A small start.

@congressmin.bsky.social voted to enable, thank, and fund ICE—Renee Nicole Good’s murderers. His words mean less than nothing. He deserves neither your thanks nor your vote.

@congressmin.bsky.social
Maybe don’t vote to enable, thank, and fund them then? All your virtue signaling rings hollow in light of your voting record.

Here’s what your votes contributed to today (in part)…

Hey @congressmin.bsky.social, no one who isn’t a billionaire wants AI. Are you ever going to vote for anything that aligns with your performative bullshit?

Read this instead:

Also fwiw, you should just be able to provide proof of residency to get a free library card. Depending on the library, that can include access to e-books if you want to do everything online.

I think the idea of border protection, especially our southern border is wild considering it was mostly Mexico originally and before that, indigenous/first nations land.

I think the world would be better without our current concept of borders.

Honestly I don’t think it’s extreme. Who would border patrol protect against? Cartels who use firearms from our country or people fleeing countries we destabilized in our efforts to “defeat communism”/protect the interests of the United Fruit Company?

It’s a really good book.

We don’t need ICE. We don’t need border patrol. And yes, they have *always* included exactly those types of men.

Case in point: Harlon Carter, who murdered Ramón Casiano and ultimately became chief of the Border Patrol and then high up in INS.

Read Migra! by Kelly Lytle Hernandez.

Try ABOLISH ICE on for size.

ICE has existed since only 2003.

Training will not fix this.

More restrictions cannot stop this.

ICE is full of larpers who couldn’t make it as real police (which also needs reform btw) so they join ICE to live out their fantasies of brutalizing BIPOC.

Crypto billionaires spent millions to get you elected.

You voted to confirm four cabinet picks.

You’re not the resistance—you’re the crypto-bros’ Senate vote.

It’s not principle when your votes are paid for in advance. You’re a human shell filled with cryptocurrency and political opportunism.

@congressmin.bsky.social: “Not some kindly professor”—true. A professor would be embarrassed to call ICE ‘evil’ after voting to supercharge their detention powers.

You didn’t just fund them, you empowered them. That’s not oversight, Congressman. That’s complicity.

[2/2] Now you call ICE’s actions in Minnesota ‘evil’ and ‘completely illegal’? You didn’t just fund ICE—you handed them sweeping new powers to detain people without due process. Your voting record isn’t oversight. It’s complicity dressed up as outrage.

[1/2] You voted YES on the Laken Riley Act. You were one of only 48 Democrats who joined every Republican to pass this mass detention bill that the ACLU called ‘a serious threat to civil liberties’ and warned would ‘unleash mass deportations.’
