Open letter to our Senators: Gentlemen, Ladies, we don't really care about ICE not getting even more funding. We don't care about more "training" and more rules they won't follow. We want ICE de-funded. Dismantled. Gone. Driven out of our cities.

YOu can want that all you want but don't fault Democrats in Congress for not doing what is impossible. It would take a 60 seat majority to do that and it simply isn't there. Dems are a minority party.

Like the spirit of your post. Reminded me of a post from friend. Think my first car sign will be about tear gassing children. His point - we all need to change minds of fence sitters by telling stories IRL. And be prepared for swearing and not react. Chants for abolishing ICE will not change minds.

Shouldn’t we also do away with the Patriot Act? Or how about the “Real ID” system? Stopping the big banks from being able to access our data? Do away with the FISA Courts? All of this came out of the same legislation that ICE was created by.

Counterpoint: We do need some form of immigration law and enforcement, BUT we can do a hell of a lot better then the current ICE actions. I'm of the opinion that once we give someone a work visa or education visa, that there should be a pathway to citizenship.

Well, unfortunately, for you, the American people spoke when we elected President Trump in a landslide, voting to have EVERY SINGLE illegal alien removed from our country. Unfortunately, we’ve had to do it the hard way because you’re not capable of cooperating with the LAW, but we are doing it! 😉👍🏻

Sadly for you and your sycophantic cheerleaders, Trump is losing popularity across the board in Net polling. lol. It’s so bad that Trump wants to sue them. Let’s not forget how he wants to sue over the leaked files that had his name on them. Discovery will be fun!

I'll take what I can get. Without a majority in either chamber we're not getting ICE abolished (and Trump would just veto it anyway). Maybe they don't follow the rules right away, but they have to be there for someone to enforce even if it's at a later date. This is a big problem with no simple fix

Get up, stand up Stand up for your right Get up, stand up Don't give up the fight Get up, stand up Stand up for your right Get up, stand up Don't give up the fight But if you know what life is worth You would look for yours on earth And now you see the light You stand up for your right, yeah

and we want all of their names and records made public so they face a lifetime of scorn and social banishment for their treason against the laws of our nation and against the ideals we are supposed to be striving to achieve.

I don't even need that. I want them hung. I don't care what theirs names are... arrest, hold without bail in a camp, and investigate. When you find what they have been a part of... fast trial, walk them put of the courtroom and into a noose.

Not going to happen, republicans betray country loudly, democrats do it quietly, feigning no stomach for what really needs to be done, citizens demand be done. They force two bad choices on us in this country, never should have got to this, they manage NOTHING.

#RT #Liam made people look. Now don’t look away. We still have children in ICE custody eating bad food, drinking questionable water, living in filthy conditions, and carrying a lifetime of trauma they shouldn’t have to survive. #FreeTheChildren

Yes, but I don't think Democrats would get rid of ICE or the DHS if they had veto proof super majorities in both the House and Senate. We'd get gibberish about ”reforms” and ”transparency” and ”training” and guffaws and pearl clutching.

Prosecuted. We want those pieces of shit to have their masks ripped off and get perp walked in front of the world. And those found guilty of crimes against humanity and/or treason? We want them hung on national television, prime time.

I’d be okay with them going back to deporting illegal immigrants who committed a crime more serious than bypassing immigration rules in order to have a better life for their family.

Take that money and fund visa processing... Hiring immigration judges who are knowledgeable regarding the law, and can be fair in adjudicating the backlog of asylum claims etc. Spend the money on due process, not horror reality TV terrorizing communities and murdering people.

Ladies and Gentlemen of Congress If you vote to fund ICE, you better learn to cook your own food and mix your own drinks It will never be spit-free from your restaurants, hotels, and personal assistants from this point forward Thank you for your attention to this matter

Same as yesterday- What don’t all’y’all understand about your elected officials and the bill your elected leaders passed ? Voting in the only thing that changes this. And you saw in Texas it works. So go and “Do Something” yourselves and register voters. bsky.app/profile/mega...

Ok- but the big Big funded ICE for 4 years. If you want to defund ICE then elect democrats to write a new budget. Otherwise diverting funds is the only real thing until they can do until the voters hire people to change the law in Congress .. Help elect democrats .. write a new law.

You have a right to call any senator not just your own. Full list attached for your convenience. 202.224.#### Use the last 4 digits in PHONE column Call every day Ok to call off hours. Blow up VM Be vocal. Be visible. Be disruptive.

When you dismantle the agency tasked with enforcing the law, you don’t get accountability you get chaos, selective enforcement by local actors, and more exploitation by traffickers and cartels. If ICE fails, fix it.

If every person who reads this agrees and calls their senator, we can move the needle. Make the call! Be the squeaky wheel that gets the grease! Have your family call too (each your own rep or they don't count it please).

The head honchos of DHS and ICE say one thing but are doing something else. They say that they are arresting hardened criminals, but are kidnapping people who are going through legal channels for obtaining citizenship. These people are not criminals.
