Any Dem Senator who is not calling for Schumer's removal and removal of the 8 Judas Senators from all committees was in on the betrayal. Any Dem can talk the talk but my money says not a single Dem Senator will walk the walk because they were ALL in on the betrayal.

This is the message of a failed, feckless, and leaderless party. We need a party with backbone, and the only path to it is through a cleansing primary season. If your Dem is up for reelection, and you aren't damn sure they're fighting the fascists with everything they've got, primary the bastard.

That made me angry. Like actively angry. OK Angus, youre not a fighter. Thats cool. Give up your seat to someone who is. Angus King doesnt know better than us. The "alarmists" have been right about almost everything. Fuck King, fuck Schumer and fuck Trump forever and always.

Our failing as a country started after the end of the civil war for allowing for reconstruction not to finish and black Americans have been paying the most visible price/suffering for that and led directly to us as a country to overlook and allow for everything, including the Iraq war crimes.

White people “not feeling safe” has been the consistent primary moral justification for horrific violence against indigenous and Black people since the 1600s.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command.
If we get past this, the solution isn’t to pretend it never happened and invite Stephen Miller to Harvard’s Institute of Politics.
It’s trials w real punishments.

Defund and dismantle ICE, CPB,
HSI and all these DHS gestapo, then put their members on a national registry, like we do for sex offenders, which most of them likely are, like this one. The ones we don’t send to prison can’t live among us without monitoring.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Worth mentioning, one helluva journey for Senator Ghazala Hashmi, elected in 2019 to the Virginia Senate, inspired to run for office because of Trump’s travel ban against majority Muslim countries.
