Blocking today’s vote on the DHS funding bill was an important first step for Senate Democrats. A unified opposition party is how we stop the escalating violence that the regime is carrying out in our communities. Now we need to make sure Democrats keep holding the line to get ICE Out For Good.

Maybe DOJ should focus on the law it’s violating, the Epstein Files Transparency Act, instead of speculating a crime might have been committed (despite multiple ballot recounts) in Fulton County or declining to investigate two homicides in Minneapolis?

Dems have a lot of leverage here, but my expectations on how they'll use it are low.

Trump says he and Democrats are 'getting close' to a deal to resolve shutdown fight
Democrats have demanded changes to DHS and ICE, and they have leverage after a massive government funding package failed Thursday by a wide margin of 45-55 on the Senate floor.

Because they're all cowards...
It's infuriating that world leaders & Republicans publicly criticize Trump but are too cowardly to ever mention his name.
For instance, PM Carney in Davos condemned Trump and his tariffs but avoided the extra step of using his name.

Agreed...
I disagree with Axelrod. “Abolish ICE” is not “defund the police.” Defund the police was stupid & wrong. But Americans don’t view ICE as law enforcement. They view ICE as masked thugs who are the antithesis of law enforcement & who have no place here. Abolish ICE is 💯 the correct thing to say & do.
