You'd think it'd be obvious by now that the Dems shouldn't listen to the Adam Jentlesons, Simon Rosenbergs, or James Carvilles of the world.

The killer of Renee Good proudly RECORDED THE KILLING. Body cams won't stop this. And "training" just gives ICE more money to train its agents to keep doing what they're doing.
Abolish ICE. Defund it entirely.
If @booker.senate.gov is your senator, please call him what you think. (202) 224-3224

THREAD. Having just written a book about this and talked to a LOT of Democrats, I can assure you that neither Cory Booker nor the policing industry he’s advertising think that more money for ICE “training” and tech would address any problem that any person of good will has with what ICE is doing.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

It's particularly galling to call for ICE to wear body cams when Renee Good's murder literally recorded the whole thing on his phone. He was so confident in his impunity as part of that organization that he recorded and allowed for the release of footage of him shooting a woman at point blank.

Anyone have any good suggestions for some music with some righteous anger to it? I need to channel some feels. I put on one of my favorite P.O.S. albums but then read he was accused of sexual misconduct a few years ago, so that's out.

Maybe I'm being too optimistic, but I really can't imagine a hot war breaking out between NATO and the United States. I would imagine there would be intense pressure for regime change before any of that happened.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Members of Congress should be openly stating right now that military action against Greenland will result in impeachment and removal of the President and the Vice President.

It whips that not only is this guy absolutely going to get reinstated with back pay thanks to UNIONS but he’s already made nearly $1mil in a GFM which means many, many people are now incentivized to scream at Trump that he’s a pedophile

I swear to Christ, if elected Dems vote to fund ICE again in a few weeks ...
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.
