Add these to the dimocrats (not a typo) that must be primaried and defeated. These New Yorkers that voted to pour approximately $10 billion directly into ICE. Laura Gillen and Tom Suozzi, both proudly describing themselves as “moderate” Democrats.

Regrets do not matter.

Most any Dem is orders of magnitude better than the MAGA alternative. No Dem circular firing squads. Resist MAGA gangster grifter authoritarianism! Vote Sane. #VoteBlue!

Agree in principle but feel we have to fight to get rid of all “democrats” that support any trump/republican appointments, policies, or republican legislation. Need new candidates. Is there a DNC?

Agreed! Regrets are too little way to late!

Looks like Dump is starting to toss scapegoats overboard.

Meanwhile, the SAVE Act has been quietly reintroduced.

You know, the one designed to disenfranchise millions of voters?

Especially women?

Just in time for the midterms, which are the whole ballgame.

CALL your Reps and Senators - both parties, please - and DEMAND they vote NO. Not in ANY form.

None of today's "responses"--recalling Bovino, "looking into" reducing the number of agents, having a "productive" talk with the governor Trump recently accused of everything from fraud to treason--is adequate. Window dressing while waiting for the news cycle to change. And I see the senate is poised to fall short as well. Passing other budget items before this mess with DHS is resolved TO OUR SATISFACTION is lunacy. Once again, Chuck Schumer can't wait to not get concessions in exchange for our exploitation.

VERY FACT BASED AN WELL WRITTEN-heartbreakingly factual and terrifying. As an old white woman, I remember Kent State- as a college freshman, I went to my first protest. That was a rarity - now we have shootings by people who are supposed to protect us more often than not. KEEP WRITING - KEEP TELLING THESE STORIES.

And Bondi tries a shakedown tactic in MN saying that if they give up voter roles, ICE will leave--something like that. Shakedown tactics that would make the mob proud of this administration!

Republicans could stop this violence directed at "the enemy within" at any time. To end the murder of citizens by poorly trained govt squads we need 16 Republicans & 23 to impeach & remove Trump—3 in House & 20 in Senate in Congress voting with Dems to redirect ICE . 23 Republicans can vote convict & end all of this.

Vote Sane. #VoteBlue!

ICE out of Minneapolis?

What about ICE, the ICE bosses and drump out of the US?

When the United States no longer respects human rights then why would any country want to come here for the World Cup? The crap with ICE is an extremely bad look is an understatement. Our president and government have never looked more menacing and stupid to the world.

As for the impeachment of Kristi Noem it shouldn’t be just Democrats that want to oust her the Republicans should have already been rushing to get it done.

Please come to Portland Maine. We are not a city as big as Minneapolis, but relatively speaking, ICE is here and doing the same damage: Taking citizens who are legally here and are in process of becoming citizens. They are heads of households, work in the schools, operate businesses. We have spotters and observers but it needs to get national press, and soon. Thank you!
