  1. >Schumer acknowledged that White House border czar Tom Homan announced on Thursday that it was ending its surge deployment of ICE officers in Minnesota but declared the action falls short of what’s needed to prevent troubling incidents connected to law enforcement operations.

    >“We need legislation to rein in ICE and end the violence,” he said. “Without legislation, what Tom Homan says today could be reversed tomorrow on a whim from a Donald Trump.”

    Nice to see remnants of a spine still exist in Schumer every now and again.

    It really sucks that having a shutdown seems to always be a win for the GOP, although if the Dems hadn’t caved last time it probably would have done something

  3. Now let’s see how long Chuck goes before selling us out again by folding.

  4. RaspberryCommie on

    How long until Chuck tells the most right wing democrats to vote to reopen the government so that they take the heat for it instead of him.

    You know. Again.

  5. „This was a bipartisan bill. Democrats helped negotiate it,”

    Was that before or after ICE began murdering Americans on the streets of Minneapolis?

    Chuck needs to reach deep down into his Depends and find his balls, then actually follow through on this.

    Not give in to the Republicans with nothing in return.

    Not continue to “negotiate” for less and less.

    Hold. The. Fucking. Line.

    Shut it down and keep it shut down. Push ALL negative press onto the Republicans and force them to cave.

    Anything less is yet another failure from AIPAC’s favorite spokesman Schumer.

    Ice was created after 9/11 in a rush bill without any oversight. Redo or eliminate. Only federal agency with power and no oversight.

  8. „Centrist Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), who has a long-standing policy of voting against government shutdowns, was the only Democrat to vote for advancing the measure.“

    As always, Fetterman being the POS as usual.

    *after Republicans refuse to reform their American Gestapo.

    #UnmaskICE

  10. Clarify this for me – what else would shut down besides DHS? If nothing else, shouldn’t Democrats have all the leverage?

  11. Comfortable-Pea-1312 on

    And here we are again….headed for another government shutdown. How many is that for Mr it’s the President s fault for shut downs?

  12. PostMerryDM on

    The moment the shutdown happens ICE will absolutely go ballistic in terrorizing a city. 1) As retaliation and to break democratic resolve; 2) Give themselves new justification for their budget and brutality once the city tries to defend themselves.

    Edit: Shutdown absolutely needs to last as long as necessary. But we have to be ready, unfortunately.

    Until Schumer caves. This is the „controlled opposition“ phase of the negotiation.

  14. Thank God, I just hope Shumer keeps it up and doesn’t chicken out like last time

  15. Lonely_skeptic on

    Good. Shutting down DHS is what we need. Didn’t I just read something about DHS poking into voter data?

  16. I hate when the MSM claims a party “Blocks” a Bill.

    They didn’t block anything, Congress simply votes on a Bill, and if it gets enough votes it passes, if not, it doesn’t

    They need to stand firm in the face of mounting pressure to fold as the regime feigns rolling back their smash mouth DHS/ICE/BP tactics. Nothing has changed other than messaging. The regime and their supporters still want to pour billions of our dollars into shadowy organizations who will kick us in the teeth and empty their guns into us.

  18. Fetterman is the new Kristin Sinema…completely worthless and a closet Republican.

  19. HuTaosTwinTails on

    Good. Shut it down. Fuck this administration and all the pedophile protecting Republicans.

  20. Shutting the Nazi branch down seems like a very moderate response, all considered.

  21. Snowwolf247 on

    KEEP IT SHUTDOWN TILL WE GET CHANGE THIS TIME.

    No more half measures you feckless cowards.

    People have literally died for us to get where we are and people will continue to die while DHS exists in its current form.

  22. clintgreasewoood on

    Just waiting for the usual suspects to fold for nothing as usual. Senators from New Hampshire, Nevada and the 2-3 that are retiring.

  23. If I’ve been wrong for my whole life and there actually is a god please let the fucking Democrats keep this one going because we really need to hold out this time. Look ladies and fellas of the Senate, at what happened last fall when you shit the bed and reopened the government. The Republicans didn’t do shit that they promised and the ACA is a mess. People are paying out the ass for insurance.

    So, please oh please don’t let them fool you again. Don’t let Chuck shithole Schumer talk you into reopening the government again. Just for once in your money grubbing lives do the right thing for the American people please oh please. If you don’t then if/when everything goes to shit because of fascism we’ll make sure your shit asses get tried and thrown in jail with everyone else. Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk.
