I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Lots on the left were fine with this too, as a necessary sacrifice on the path of social revolution. I submit they should stand there and tell victims in ICE prisons that, to their faces.

We are tired now. In 2017 we were all about it. Why do we expect politicians to run on principle when when people are like this?

The electorate as a whole average out to a bunch of fickle idiots. I’m sure you had the same concern about Dems being too centrist during Trump’s first run, right? Did Obama win on a super left agenda? Nope. — I am frustrated with Dems fealty but winning elections had never been done on principle.

Not even deporting them. Locking them up in US prison for weeks and months first. - And sending some to overseas death traps.

They only care that there was no way to cover up the scandal. If there was even the tiniest way to slither out of it, they’d be screaming support for them. So telling.

We are talking about *why* they are disapproved of, Aaron. You said it’s because Dems are murdering palestinians.
Uh, no, that’s not why their approval is low.
Read it again if you need to. Cheers.

With adults under 30? Sure, that view has weight. Everyone else? No, that view has slim support.
And adults under 30 are a joke when it comes to the electorate. Loud on social media, which is great but, do fuck-all at the polls.
Dems changing their attitude on Palestine would probably be a wash.

They should set up a press room and do a daily brief just like the white house. Led by Pete.
Bc right now you can’t hear their voices at all. They are totally drowned out.
