No. Schumer and Jeffries have already said ICE will not be defunded. They have appropriated $120 Billion towards ICE and the hiring of 10,000 new agents with $50,000 bonuses each, not to mention the establishment of new detention facilities that will hold an additional 100,000 detainees. The Democratic leadership is not touching that. Schumer and Jeffries are very clear about this. And that is who Democrats have chosen to be their leaders in the House and Senate. So nothing happening there. |
Not really. |
| The Trump regime really screwed this one up. They immediately came out with a story defending the agent instead of calling for an investigation. Usually they would get lots of credulous headlines repeating their story and that would bake their narrative into the public consciousness, but in this case the videos came out immediately and showed the regime was lying. Normal people might backtrack at that point, but this regime is incapable of admitting any mistake ever so now they’re just repeating their initial lie over and over while losing the tiny bit of credibility they still had. |
This probably moved the needle on ICE by 1 or 2 points which amounts to less than a point overall for Trump's national approval. He's already lost the swing voters and independents. Pro-ICE voters are digging in, seeing the videos and context as they want to. |
To be clear, you are a sworn employee of a major metropolitan police department and you actually posted the text below?

Different poster here, and different sworn law enforcement officer who has posted several pages back. Your snide tone and forthcoming criticism are so much S H I T, which you are full of. Undoubtedly another micropeen rageful misogynist bootlicker MAGA pretending to know anything of any value about law enforcement training, procedures, best practices and the laws governing use of force. You are full of it, and everyone can see that whether a decades long veteran LEO or a lay person. S T F U already.

Huh? I don't follow. I am trying to understand if when a a man murders his wife because she pisses him off one day by burning the toast or because she is annoyed that he came home drunk or what have you, is your response: "actions have consequences . when you burn toast, outcomes can be deadly" |
This is probably the last nail in the coffin for both. |
+2 Statistically LEOs have higher rates of domestic violence. Multiple studies from the 1990s and early 2000s found that 24% to over 40% of police officer families experience domestic violence, compared to an estimated 10% of families in the general population. A systematic review found a pooled rate of 21.2% across various studies. |
Who cares about what they think. They are done. A tidal wave is coming and all of maga and their Vichy democrats will be swept away. |
State and local gov.t have tremendous power to curb ICE. The fact that they have not done so is enraging. We must all insist our local law enforcement have non-cooperation agreements with ICE unless it is a criminal arrest. Also, state and local governments can and should: Track ICE apprehensions/ account for all victims Run support hotline for impacted families Provide legal aid to immigrants Track ICE locations & share Info with immigrants at risk Maintain list of ICE license plates. |
Sensitive topic, but folks will be asking questions anyway. |
Such information is widely available, although agencies and jurisdictions vary in specific policies. In LA, policies against shooting into vehicles were established many years ago after a specific event. Dan Bovine has said in a legal deposition (Chicago lawsuit against Noem et al) that Noem has never told him of any use of force policies. We can't expect Nazi cosplayer Bovino to exercise any reasonable control over the people under him. So maybe there is a situation where no policy was violated (this issue was germane to the Chauvin prosecution)--but if the conduct violates the 4th amendment, say, there does not have to be a formal policy prohibiting how the action was carried out. The worst thing is that DHS is headed by a woman who has NO CONCEPT of the law, NO EXPERIENCE within law enforcement or the criminal justice system, and a mediocre education. Some of her actions as governor (there was a big problem with state prison industries which made her very, very expensive desk and how she billed them, and the legislature found her interference with the rest estate licensing division constituted special treatment on behalf of her daughter--who after word got out surrendered her license but complained it was because of people bad-mouthing how she got it) show casual disregard for legal principles and of course there was that little habeas corpus thing. |
What do you mean by immigrants at risk? |
