Now do a Republican. What? Not a single one? Now I see why our current situation is the fault of DEMOCRATS.

How about you speak with the Minority Leader and tell him to stop being a collaborationist.

bravo! dems, see *opposition*

Hear Hear!!

He already has some of that money. That's plenty for now. youtu.be/DbqZ7bLfK3w

BRAVO @vanhollen.senate.gov no tax dollars for trump's private terrorist army #ICEGESTAPO No amt of training can reform the 2003 started agency. End ICE @martinheinrich.bsky.social @lujan.senate.gov While you're at it, challenge @schumer.senate.gov for dem Sen leadership. He's not up to.the times

This is the only acceptable answer from our electeds 👏

So proud he represents my state. #Marylandstrong

I sure wish our California govenor had a spine like that. Ours just says whatever little funny jab at potus his writers tell him to say and pretends he’s clever. He’s not. He’s an asshole.

Maryland.. we’re all behind you!

Go all the way to Administration while you’re at it.

Invoke a motion to vacate on Schumer and run for leader of the senate.

Pass it on!!!

Any Democrat that DOES vote to fund ICE, will be complicit in the fascistic brutality of this authoritarian regime and should be aggressively primaried in the mid terms.

That's great, Chris Van Halen. Thank you.

Karl’s attempt to dismiss Van Hollen’s basic moral statement about ICE with “will it work?” is how consensus is thwarted and reaction tamped down.

That's is exactly right

THANK YOU Van Hollen!

Note to Van Hollen: "Get your papers in order, you're about to be investigated."

And bla bla bla. Fuck USA!!!

Thank-you. cc @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

I would hope more members of Congress will do this too.

Thank you

FUCK ICE get rid of it all together. We don’t need that shit for anything. Let people live unbothered.

If only there were 5 or so Republicans with the spines, honor, and integrity to match him.

The fact this is even up for debate in the Dem party is absolutely asinine! If you want responsible immigration enforcement, ICE is not the answer, no matter how much people think it can be fixed.

So true! Abolish ICE!

ICE has been subverted by the regime. It needs to be dismantled, with legal consequences for lawbreaking agents and bosses. #EndICE #ImpeachNoem

#ChuckSchumer is about to send Ban Hollen a strongly worded letter.

Finally a Dem who gets it instead of feckless @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeemjefferson.bsky.social !

That what all of them shoukd be saying but you'll see. At vote time the collaborators will once again vote with Republicans to crush us. Did you Booker? Training. Fucking training for the people shooting women in the face for not cowering before them? Fuck democrats

Hey, try this. don’t cast a vote until the Trump administration complied with the law and released all the Epstein files and videos

@vanhollen.senate.gov @bennet.senate.gov @hickenlooper.bsky.social thank you Senator Van Hollen! Colorado Senators, you should follow suit. NO MORE funding ICE in any amount.

Van Hollen is 💯 percent correct

Tell that bitch Schumer

My senator

Not only do they need to take on ICE but need to ensure there is close oversight, auditing and regular reporting on Venezuelan oil money - where it is spent, who is directing expenditure, who is being paid to manage funds, etc.

Right on

Calling @slotkin.senate.gov and @peters.senate.gov for what I think is like day 20 telling them to abolish ICE and not fund ICE in the meantime.

Some Dems????

This is a start!

@schiff.senate.gov, @padilla.senate.gov: Please follow @vanhollen.senate.gov 's lead on this!!

So happy he's my Senator.

Correct answer senator.

The key is "some dems" Who will choose to support ICE attacks & invasion of our USA? Today they are deployed in 41 states. Every governor should sue Trump, HS, DefWar, FBI, Congress, SCOTUS & every other supporter of this MAGA kakistocracy. And deploy their state guard to protect their population.

THANK YOU!

The fact of the matter is this. The corrupt regime continues with their crack down only in blue cities. Not one GOPer run city has been impacted. They know that speaking out against Dear Leader will wind up with their cities being invaded. THAT is why they are keeping their heads down. F'g cowards.

That’s what I’m talking about.

THANK YOU @vanhollen.senate.gov

Thank you sir. I won't call your office.

More of this please

💞

This is the right call, Senator. Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov.

That is good to hear, but there's still wiggle room in those words. I want to hear "I will shut down the government unless ICE is defunded and/or abolished." I have heard something like this from a few reps, but no senators that I'm aware of. This is the only correct position right now.

that's the way to do it 🤠

That’s the way! Shut it down

I think they have a vote coming up for continuing funding? Maybe I’m wrong?

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov . Get the rest of the dems on board.

Van Hollen for Senate Minority Leader!

One Senator is starting to catch up with the American people.

What country is this? I assume he’s the head of some NATO member attending the emergency meeting in Brussels today.

Why did he clarify “Trump ice.”

This is why Schumer needs to go No Senator should be speaking publicly without full causus backing Leadership, behind closed doors, should distill the maximal position of 4 moderate GOP, whip the Dems, create talking points, then publicly barrage the media in a unified voice.

Unless...?

Bovino already on Fox declaring that they will continue to use tear gas. Wimp judge.

It won't immediately fix everything, so isn't it wrong for you to do that?

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov

Oh, so he's going to stop the Dems from caving on the next funding bill? That would be nice, wouldn't it.

You better rein it in. WHY Armed forces if you don’t make the right choice you could find vigilante bullets headed your way. (Out of no where)- pop pop pop *** It’s a complete shame what this administration is building.

That's literally the least he can do, and as a minority member, it's virtually washing his hands of responsibility when they should be going full Mitch McConnell and shutting down the Senate.

I hope Democrats stand together on this but history says Schumer will let 6 or 7 of them cave to mango mussolini and his icestapo.

How is the weather in Pyongyang?

Can Van Hollen be our next president?

America is an autocracy. America does not have a functioning government. America does not have functioning laws. American citizens are not safe from their government in their homes.

lol don’t worry the other Dems will !! They are all part of the problem

Leaving your house without being asked to “show your papers” used to be a given in America. Shame on any Democrat equivocating on this basic tenet.

It's crazy how they're a whole year behind

Thank you! Senator Van Hollen!

Maybe he should talk to @chuckschumer.com

@wyden.senate.gov @merkley.senate.gov @repbonamici.bsky.social What he said... Do not "cast a vote -- not one dime -- to support this lawless, brutal trump ICE operation."

YES!!!

You Go Senator Van Hollen!

Thank you. Please lead the charge for new senate leader. Dems are only a 5 pt lead over MAGA. That would jump profoundly with new Dem leadership. I am 100% anti-ICE, anti-trump regime. You have the support of most all Americans, and certainly Dem voters.

Good! Get others on board.

The midterms can't come soon enough. I'm EXTREMELY curious about what will happen.

Well, you have to start somewhere. The present situation is untenable.

Hey Dems... This!!!

Absolutely

Proud of my good Senator Van Hollen. Waiting to hear from his colleague @alsobrooks.senate.gov while our governor plays dead

Anything short of abolition is complicity.

No! Why should you? We don't want ICE in MN.

Also, I'm sure he's not.

That’s why they haven’t done what you would like, these two aren’t your reps/senators. Call yours.

Pay attention #Democrats and #Republicans! This Senator is NOT supporting #ICE #Maryland #SenatorChrisVanHollen

We don’t have democratic leadership. We have people with D’s by their name too lazy and unwilling to go against the Nazis because they too, benefit from the chaos. Hakeem’s stupid face should tell you, they DO NOT CARE ABOUT US! Their bank accounts come first and last!

@rephuffman.bsky.social @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov I am your constituent and want to hear you confirm you are 100% in agreement with Senator Van Hollen. What say you??????

Not one thin dime should we be spending on ICE

All thinking people, especially Democrats in Congress, better be saying the same damn thing. Thank you, Senator Van Hollen.

Good. The idea that anyone cannot support this madness is sickening.

Until the cameras look in another direction.

Good!

Right. Or protest outside the GOP reps offices. They would never do that. Those indivisible idiots protested Schumer not Thune. The stupidity is mind numbing. The cowardice. The inability to grasp how politics actually work.

Looking forward to exactly 4 democrats voting to fund the government after every grandstands on this for months.

We need this forced upon every single Democrat. Not a single cent for ICE. God help us all!

No money for any Democrats unless all Democrats vote against every GQP initiative.

This guy would make a good senate leader.

We The People, a hard working, taxpayers will not fund the ICE to terrorize our own communities!!!

Yes! — Van Hollen replaces Schumer. See? I’ve got it all worked out 😂 I’ve posted my Wish previously.

Van Hollen isn't flashy, but ever since he popped up on my radar during the El Salvador concentration camp dress rehearsal, he's been consistently saying the thing I want to hear from an elected.
