One month after DHS bought a Hagerstown warehouse for $102M, Washington County, Md. board of commissioners will vote to pledge support for ICE operations.
The facility will cost ~$110M/year to operate. The county collected $300K/year in property taxes when it was a warehouse.

Abolish ICE.
There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

"None of this would have happened under Harris" is wishful thinking which denies the violence that the US state still inflicted when she was VP, & also doesn't matter.

Chuck and Hakeem are going to be death of the democratic party. They are fumbling an obvious opportunity to build broad popular support by simpling doing what's right. What a joke.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”
Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.
So pathetic and weak.

I interviewed over half a dozen ICE and Border Patrol agents who describe an agency that sounds like Reno 911!
“I thought federal agents were supposed to be clean cut but some of them pass around a flask as we are watching a suspect,” one told me:
