Sounds like a real banger of a plan. Good work Senator. You’re doing great

delete this AI garbage

Where did you see he announced he had a gun? Thanks 💙

Resistance takes momentum. Showing you are resisting is important. Please be brave, this is the time. I know you have been threatened a lot, but this is an emergecy, and we need to act like it, and understand the situation will not get better till we make it. You included.

Insufficient, Patty. Shut down the funding package now. Work on the slush fund. But you need to promise that "reigning them in" means abolishing ICE. I don't understand how you elected Dems can't bring yourselves to recognize this truth and necessity when you see it. Are you all blind? Deaf?

Just a Reminder that DHS/ICE Is funded by taxpayers paychecks. What we’re asking as citizens & taxpayers is better stewardship of our monies that protects & respects USA and us-citizens.

Constituent here - there is no "rein in". There is no "working with Republicans". Vote no to any more money. Yes - they still have their slush fund, but you still need to fight.

Republicans will not work with you. Oppose all new funding for DHS now and dismantle it when you come to power. We also require accountability up and down the chain: from Trump to the masked thugs. That is what is required in America and what is required of you.

I think we should work with the Republicans to reduce the state-sanctioned murders by like 10%. If we can't reach a compromise, I'd settle for 5% less.

you all gotta stop with this "Reined In" crap. It's a meaningless weasel word that some consultant told you to say because it allows you to escape accountability. Its transparent and patronizing and we see through it. Grow a spine and abolish ICE or enjoy your primary.

Do not pass ANY funding bill that gives DHS more money! PERIOD!

STOP TRYING TO "REACH ACROSS THE AISLE." THERE'S NO GOOD FAITH. THERE'S NO MEANINGFUL DIALOGUE. BE THE GODDAMNED OPPOSITION PARTY WE DEMAND YOU TO BE

NO. What do you fools not understand about We The People. Working with the Nazis is not ok

Then draft legislation to recess ICE/CBP funding. Don’t fucking sit there and say bullshit like, “We have to get Republicans to work with us.” The Republicans keep letting this happen. For fuck sake, @murray.senate.gov! What part of, “Fight for us,” are you not getting?

Aggressive opposition to everything leading to epistemic chaos is the remedy. The only way out is through. Trump does not have a mandate. Stand your ground.

Rein in??? They need to be stopped and punished

You have no choice you must abolish ICE, or we will be in nazi Germany in no time at all. We are on our way, it's up to you guys to save us from this. learn to fight for us. We are done with talk. We still haven't seen the Epstein files.Chuck Schumer has to go.We want fighters.

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO WORK WITH YOU NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU PATHETICALLY PLEAD FOR THEM TO DO SO! And if you cave on this and don’t vote “no” on this bill, I hope you get primaried into the sun.

Abolish the DHS please.

Stfu

What the hell is wrong with you???

We're allowed to speak up and have our own thoughts about this or anything else

I understand that it’s the truth and there isn’t much else she and other Dems can do right now. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t set expectations for when/if they get back into power, and let them know what it will take to earn our votes. Just being a more benign alternative isn’t enough.

The truth is the GOP does not want to rein in ICE. They want ICE to keep terrorizing and killing US citizens because its what Trump wants and his lackies first words out of their mouths is that anyone ICE kills had it coming. Bipartisanship Does Not Exist Anymore

Yeah she wants to rein in a group that is murdering Americans. I'm sorry to tell you and her that is not sufficient. DHS needs to be eliminated and every single one of them needs to be prosecuted. Not agreeing to do that as a bare minimum makes her unsuitable.

Ignore her. BS account.

They really bury the lede in the fundraising emails, then.

They could use the leverage of funding the rest of the government to force a clawback of the slush fund. Instead, Murray strongly advocated what @democrats.senate.gov are doing: splitting off the DHS funding bill to eliminate that leverage, ensuring little will be done about DHS funding or reform.

They could impeach noem

Murray has a lot of defenders out here

Then give up and get the fuck out of our way. Dumbass

Exactly. VOTERS CHOSE THIS, and we have limited means to stop it.

They've killed 3 people on the street since New Years eve, and at least 30 have died in their custody over the last year. One of which was lynched in detention. I think everyone GAF.

Then shut down the airports, shut down the national parks, hell shut down the economy and refuse to fund anything else until ICE and DHS are investigated by non-partisan prosecutors. This really isn't a hard concept to grasp yet here you are failing to do so.

Policy bills are virtually impossible w MAGA in control, and Congress does not prosecute. Courts do. Cases are being filed by and in MN. Stop asking the wrong people to do everything. Look at what they ARE doing w the Sen. Appropriations bill that guts ICE funding, directs DHS funds to our services.

Man fuck off

They absolutely are helping Trump, shifting the blame where it doesn’t belong, making up wild accusations about Dems & discouraging our voters. We can nitpick later. But folks, the house is on fire, children are screaming inside, stop blaming the firefighters & read the room.

Oh no, you didn't hear the special magic words that give you the warm fuzzies? 🙄 Man, either go yell at a Republican or STFU.

As an elected representative senator, what is your plan? How will you push republicans to hold this murdering, fascist regime (not hyperbole) accountable and prevent future lawlessness while funding it?

Too late to rein it in. Dismantle!

Senator Murray — are you saying that the current appropriations bill should be approved??? ICE and CBP must be completely re-purposed with Constitutional missions. Minor tweaks on the edges will not work, and I believe you know this. We must gain real oversight of these rogue organizations!

i will be very old by the time you “work “ with republicans to “rein” in DHS. in the meantime, more will be injured and dead and sent to concentration camps. i always wondered how germany allowed nazism to grow so quickly and now i see. you have to be brave and fight. silence is complicity.

So...nothing. Sounds just like this feckless Dem Senate. You all will cave on this like you did Health Care. How stupid do you think we are?

Abolish. Dismantle. Prosecute. You are such a fucking Schumercrat dissapointment.

ICE must be abolished. It’s beyond fixing.

You misspelled "shut down".

I’m a Washington resident. What are you going to do? I’m sick of “Republicans need to work with us”. WHAT ARE DEMOCRATS GOING TO DO?

Rein and work with us. Again. Bipartisanship, right? Ya’ll are the weakest motherfuckers alive.

Start calling ICE what it is - Trump's domestic terrorist organization.

A government shutdown will not affect ICE in any way, shape, or form. ICE is exempt from any shutdown by executive order. If anything it'll make their campaign of terror easier. That's what she's trying to tell you.

to work with you? Act like an opposition party, grind business to a halt.

I get it. The finance part. But this is not go along to get along time. You've got to pull every lever you can. I am just not seeing the urgency I expect from you right now.

I am your constituent and very disappointed with you. Get it together.

My eyes are wide open, and what I see is a democracy in ruins. Rulers telling me not to believe what my eyes see, human beings treated like disposable objects, American heroes murdered by racist thugs. This is not a time for reining in - I want my Senator to FIGHT, using any power she has.

ICE cannot be *reformed. The violence from them is pervasive and they must be ended. ICE cannot be *reined in.

When history is written, it will be clear that elected Dems laid the stepping stones to end this country. You've been refusing to exercise power to stop Trump for 10 years. And again, you're going to cede. You don't care about the country or the ppl in it. It's repulsive.

Love this!

“Rein in?” Like an animal gone astray? We know Democrats are in the minority, but this not enough. It’s time to pull out all the stops. Look at the last minute rally in Chicago today. A large majority of Americans want Steven Miller and his fascist enablers brought to justice.

Please, still vote no on the funding. Call out Republicans individually. Where is the evidence that they want to work with you? Take a firm stand. You work for us; the Washington citizens. It is your job to abolish corruption. Impeach Noem. Shut down ICE funding.

Senator, You fear that you have less control than the public thinks that you have. This is a real and present existential threat to our constitution and our republic. Please widen YOUR view of what is possible. Your budget negotiating maybe makes you myopic to possible tectonic changes rn

Rotating villain theory ftw

If you haven’t learned that Republicans will do nothing to protect the American people, then I’m not sure what to say. The people who understand and value the rights every American possesses are going to have to do this on their own — and over the opposition of your “colleagues.“

Where's your outrage??

This language is too accommodating. INSIST!

Ridiculous.

Let me guess. You'll be able to find 9 right? Just shy of being able to do anything. Or wait I have a better idea! Find 10 and then have one have a last minute "meeting" with our nazi president and his entourage and change their minds right before voting. Which one is it going to be?

They aren't going to 'work with you'. You are trying to escape responsibility so you can continue to fuel this machine that makes you money.

I see backtracking

I am begging you.....if you can't abolish ICE as it exists now, at the very least DO NOT ALLOW A BILL TO PASS THAT WILL GIVE THEM MORE FUNDS. The money has to be cut off to stop the murders and the terror they are inflicting on Americans.

Ok, cool, we get it. Blocking the bill won't defund ICE. Block it anyway. Block every bill that isn't the immediate end of ICE. Shut *everything* down until they are gone.

Then stop the machine. Slow things to a standstill. Cripple this rogue gangster regime.

You are high in Senate Seniority and Leadership. Use your position and safe seat to make a difference. Please!

The old adage "You can't negotiate with terrorists" applies now. Negotiations are meaningless when the other side has no intention of living up to their commitments. Repeal/rescind current HLS/ICE funding. The GOP would never, ever cave like this. How about a few TV ads?

Fuck this. Abolish and prosecute. It’s the bare minimum.

more then: rescission. Claw. It. All. Back. abolish ice. full stop.

Agree. But no Dem (or any MAGA with a faint memory of a whiff of morality) should vote to continue supporting this regime in any way.

Shut down ICE funding. Make ICE burn through that slush fund until they are dry. Then cut off the tap.

NO. NO. NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT. I VOTED FOR YOU. TAKE A GODDAMN STAND. HONOR YOUR ORIGINAL POST HERE.

Weak. You are complicit.

#AbolishICE That’s it. No funding. No negotiations. None of your lies. Shutdown the Gestapo.

Rescissions are needed!!!

Block the bill or face the same fate as this regime when the wheel turns ya fucking cunt

How about, then, #FREEZE the fund that had been already approved❓

You must block the DHS funding bill. It is not an adequate excuse to say "they already have a lot of money, so we might as well give them more".

Thank you for all you do, Senator. You are a credit to the State of Washington, the caucus, and the country. As our state party chair said this morning, we need to be clear-eyed and strategic in this work. You exemplify those qualities.

In any event, DENY UNANIMOUS CONSENT on everything in the Senate until ICE is accountable to Art I oversight of potus.

Shut it ALL down until some common sense prevails!

Make the slush fund smaller!

So what I’m hearing you say, Senator, is that ICE does not need any additional funds, as it has enough to pay for damages to all its victims before it gets effectively dismantled, correct?

I'll give the Ds this much, they didn't have any defectors on the BBB, the enabling legislation. The GOPRussia owns 100% of this.

Voting no on the funding bill is your first step. But you must start acting like a member of an opposition party. We don’t need you to lower our expectations. We need you to show us that you are willing to fight this illegal activity coming from this unpopular administration.

Sorry, Senator Murray, but we must Shutdown the Gov't regardless. We may have had success if we'd let it occur in Sept....Shutdown is the Only Voice We Have.

So take it back. Every last dollar.

Oh you are going to fold aren't you? Your words are telling me your spine is buckling.

Exactly!! Too little, too late.

quit beating around the bush, fight it anyway

Let’s first be sure your Dem colleagues are working with you. Not one person R or D trusts @schumer.senate.gov.

So? Why give them MORE money? Can't you call for an audit?

Thank you.

SO YOU BLOCK FUNDING IN ORDER TO GET THE SLUSH MONEY BACK PATTY. THIS IS NOT HARD.

So claw back the funding.

Thats not the point you dingbat.

Do not pass any funding bill that gives them more money! Period!

Claw back the money!

Your objection is that they will use their funds wrongly? As if they’re responding to any calls for restraint? Im a constituent telling you that WE UNDERSTAND WHAT YOURE SAYING AND DEMAND YOU VOTE TO NOT FUND ANYWAY! Any resistance is better than none. Hobble however you can. Bite ankles! LISTEN!!!

Not if you shut down the Government until Trump is gone

Claw back their frigging slush find!

do step one

What will you do about it?

But it’s a start. We need a start.

Blocking the bill is not about shutting down ICE - it's about ensuring the headlines aren't "Democrats help fund ICE." Taking a stand and refusing to support it until it constrains them is an option. And committing to aggressive prosecution to put the fear of consequences in them is another.

Perhaps. But when one finds themselves in a hole, the first thing one must do is stop digging. We need to claw back that money, to be sure, but in rhe meantime, we shouldn't be giving them more.

Do you want to solve problems or just bitch?

That was this week. The ICE funding she's talking about came from the "big beautiful bill" last summer.

Can Congress freeze the funds until an investigation takes place that includes public testimony before Congress by Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Todd Lyons and Greg Bovino?

Yes, but is a first step

Thank you for being on the right side of history, senator.

Cool guess we won’t do anything!! Worthless statement. Get out of the way and let someone in there who will fight.

Abolish and prosecute OR get the fuck out of the way
