Democrats, do not be fooled. If you cave and approve DHS funding, they’ll be back and worse than last time. Republicans keep showing you their hand, stop shaking it.

White middle class Americans are right to ask whether their own local police departments will protect them from ICE. This largely unknown program by the regime suggests the answer is no.

Even with the so-called "drawdown," many Minneapolis area activists say little has changed since hundreds of agents left and they're preparing for prolonged resistance. The anxiety remains palpable after two fatal shootings of US Citizens by federal agents in January. https://cnn.it/4rAFZ34

It’s not about convicting Don Lemon. That’s very unlikely on these facts and given the legal charges DOJ brought. So what’s it all about? Read about that here: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
Why Indict Don Lemon?
Don Lemon was taken into custody Thursday night by federal agents in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy Awards.

THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

For the umpteenth time, Brian nails it. House Dem Leadership screwed up big last week. This isn't "I told ya so." There should be some real reflection within the Dem Caucus about the systemic error in judgement that dismissed all efforts aimed at getting them to make the right call last week.
The murder of Alex Pretti might prove to be a political turning point for the GOP. It should be a turning point for Dems, too. For the current leadership, and the consultant-industrial complex, which just fatally endangered the careers of seven members who chose to put morality last.

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.
