Democrats should make closing the camps their #1 priority
In ICE detention camps, “disease and illness are rampant, mold grows on the walls, and detained individuals are denied sufficient food, clean drinking water, proper medical care, and disability accommodations”.
ICE is a scourge of humanity, and also of public health.

I'm pretty tired of people dumping on Democrats for not doing enough. Sure, everyone could do more, but morally bankrupt Republicans who *could* do something need to find their hearts and their spines. This is on you guys. And those Republicans who aren't cowards? Louder please.

This is true, the US would be Venezuela (or worse!) if anyone other than our lord and savior were president.
During a disjointed briefing, President Trump brought up California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom unprompted as he riffed on his efforts to roll back federal regulations.

looks like donald trump used the military to do a smash and grab for his personal benefit
