In theater. So they think they’re at war.
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

"ICE has definitely gone too far but we still n-" no we don't. Whatever the purist version of what you think their job is supposed to be is, we don't need them for that. We can just get rid of all of it and put that money towards some, anything else.

As others have aptly pointed out, police forces have been murdering people for a long time, especially POC. This terrorism from ICE is only a continuation and newest version of what we have been seeing for a long time.

Whenever flooding hits, we hear in detail all about the wrecked homes, livelihoods, property, and related misery.

But NEVER the major cause: that Ireland has been totally stripped of the native ecosystems like forest & bogs that would naturally have absorbed the water.

Why do we need to lobby our own "representatives" and beg them to call off the War Against Our Neighborhoods that fascists have unleashed? Because we have no representatives.

Anyone who okays even a dime for ICE or any part of the fascist regime is our enemy. And does NOT represent The People.

Shame the economics of seriously tackling climate breakdown don't stack up.

Guess we'll just have to let things keep on getting worse and worse.

The Senate bill is rooted in the idea that we just need to get BP/ICE "back to" only terrorizing people we deem worthy of being terrorized, and not White people. The exact problematic understanding people have been trying to warn against... While a lot of White people insisted that concern was silly

So. Once again it's "but you don't understand"...

ICE murdered 2 US citizens, ran off and are protected by Trump so they can, and will, do it again.

You want Dems back in power. You need the votes.

Who will vote for "but but I'm SCARED to take a stand! but Lobby money! People will be mean to me".

After a sleepless night, I finished About Time at 7 am. The series keeps getting better and better.

Commenced book #4 of 2025; Jodi Taylor's About Time - the fourth in the Time Police series. Book 3, Saving Time, was excellent. Matthew's mum and girlfriend save Athens and Paris from annihilation. Jane's love life progresses while two other Time Police begin what may be a romance for the ages.

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

And all the post-election think pieces should be be focused on the question of why voters refused to accept that message from Biden and Harris. But that would lead inevitably to an examination of media coverage of Biden and of Harris.
In @jonathanweisman.bsky.social's magnum opus about Dems and the working class, it's at the end that you get the full truth about 2024: Biden-Harris ran the most pro-worker administration in decades, but voters blamed them for inflation anyway.
