Sounds like Sumpter was the only candidate at the debate who said to scrap the Dillon Rule? 👀

This poll shows that 74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting getting rid of the agency.
Any elected Democrat who wants ICE to exist is outside the mainstream of their party and the people they purport to represent.

Think about all the limp dick “Buhhh what about our groceries” posts from the Klobuchars of the world, and then AOC says “our money is being stolen to pay for goons to shoot us in the face” and the difference couldn’t be more stark

I think AOC gets held to a way higher standard than her Dem colleagues, and quite frankly she should be because she’s the only one of them that seems to know how fucking politics works bsky.app/profile/acyn...
AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

going after a somali representative while her community is being targeted by stormtroopers for the crime of not voting in a uncontested primary is something I would not be caught dead doing.
Call me crazy, but I take my “frustration” out in the voting booth.
Accountability starts with participation. Even for members of Congress.

The hunt for a stolen Jackson Pollock — and answers to a family’s pain
Decades after a brazen art theft drove Merry White’s father to despair, federal agents closed in on one last missing work. For White, the search is personal.

"Any law that degrades the human personality is unjust." - Letter from a Birmingham Jail
Continue to think that saying “abolish ICE” without explaining how you’ll enforce the law is a trap, but boosting this
"YouGov has ICE at 39% favorable, 52% unfavorable...But this top line really understates the intensity of public backlash to ICE and its tactics. In February 2025, just 19% of Americans held a strongly unfavorable view of ICE. Today, 40% do."

This is actually a pro-ICE message that if taken seriously will lead to the agency being expanded even more than Obama, Biden, and Trump have already expanded it. Pseudo-opposition at best.
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: "We have an ICE agent who should have been trained not to be in front of a vehicle and never to shoot into a moving vehicle, and yet this happened on [Kristi Noem's] watch. The whole POINT of Homeland Security is to make this country more stable and safe."

Noem’s defamatory lies about murder victim Renee Good are impeachable acts in themselves, beyond all the criminal acts of the agency she heads.

The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old mother fatally shot by ICE, shows that ICE can’t be reformed and must be abolished.
I’ll be introducing the Abolish ICE Act as a step toward justice, accountability, and humanity in our immigration policy.
Time to melt ICE.

I genuinely don't want to do any discourse here, and everyone should do what makes sense for them, but I don't think anyone should feel they have to watch a video of someone being killed or feel that they're doing something wrong if they choose not to.
