In the wake of the horrific ICE killings in Minnesota, many prominent Democrats have called for ICE to wear body cameras. Yesterday, @equalityalec.bsky.social talked to @democracynow.org about how important it is that we don't get distracted by meaningless & counterproductive reforms.

In this moment, I cannot emphasized enough how important it is to understand what Democrats and mainstream news media are doing to blunt and misdirect outrage over ICE to "reforms" and talking points that are utterly fraudulent and that will only increase the repressive capacities of the government.

I want everyone to understand that Democrats are proposing not one thing that will meaningfully constrain ICE--and several things that will make it worse. But they also have absolutely nothing to say about the massive, daily violence of the DHS bureaucracy. Chris Murphy just ignores this stuff:

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

This video is one of the most important things to watch to understand our society and the legal system we have created. Two 5-year-olds are confined in a concentration camp because they lack cash assets to pay bond. Just take a look at their drawing. www.threads.com/@maddowshow/...

Yeah not only are these terrible, they bear little resemblance to other asks that party caucuses are making. I just got a Hispanic Caucus list of "non-negotiables" that has like 20 other things on it.
The Senate Dems are squandering the moment in real time.

Chuck Schumer just announced demands on DHS to avoid shutdown:
1. End roving patrols, tighten rules on warrants
2. Enforce accountability & unified code of conduct for agents
3. No more masks & require bodycams
There are *already* standards on much of this.
The issue is DHS isn't following them!

Think about it like this. This ICE agent was on camera and unmasked — fulfilling one of three "demands" Democratic leader Chuck Schumer just issued in order to agree to save Republicans and give DHS even more money.
And he was still threatening to kill someone.

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.

Democrats should demand every sitting Republican decry this attack and explicitly denounce it, and then censure all of them when they don’t do it. Act like normal decent humans defending your colleague.

Days after the killing of Renee Good, Stephen Miller and DHS began bragging that ICE agents have immunity from being held accountable.
There's a bill sitting in Congress that would end that immunity - and Democrats could right now use their sudden leverage to force its passage.
Pass it on.

How Dems Could End Immunity For ICE Agents
Steven Miller and DHS are bragging that ICE agents have immunity. Democratic senators could change that by conditioning their votes on passage of a bill already in Congress.

Last Friday, Minnesota launched a general strike that shut down Minneapolis. On January 30, the movement goes nationwide. No work. No school. No shopping.

Maher Tarabishi, who has been detained by ICE since October, was the primary caretaker of his disabled adult child, Wael.
On Jan. 23, Wael died from complications related to Pompe disease, a rare genetic condition.
ICE has now denied Maher’s request to attend his funeral, his attorney says.
