BRIEF COMMENT GOOD NEWS FOR THOSE SEEKING TO FIND HOPE IN AMERICAN POLITICS! The horrific murder of Alex Pretti at the hands of ICE agents in Minneapolis has led to Senate Democrats growing a spine and stalling a bill to fund DHS. The government could get shut down as a result, however.

Senate Democrats may block DHS funding bill. "'Democrats sought common sense reforms in the [DHS] spending bill, but because of Republicans... the bill is woefully inadequate to rein in the abuses of ICE. I will vote “no”,’ Minority Leader Chuck Schumer... said..." www.nbcnews.com/pol

Senate Democrats fucking "threaten" to block DHS funding? It should be completely off the table at this point. I would expect Senate Dems to shut down the government unless ICE is defunded, not to "threaten." www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Good luck to everyone affected by winter storm Fern. If you find yourself safe, warm, connected, and with extra time on your hands this would be an excellent time to contact your senators about funding for DHS and ICE. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Senate Democrats threaten to block a DHS funding bill after yet another person was murdered by Trumpist thugs in Minneapolis

About time @democrats.senate.gov show some spine & not kiss trump's ass💋like @SenateGOP; Senate #Democrats threaten to block #DHS funding bill after another person killed in #Minneapolisprotests #AlexPretti #video #ICENazis #CrimeNews #CrimeWatch www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

I see some strongly worded letters in our future... Very strongly worded... www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Senate is “threatening” to vote against DHS funding. We better see you do it, #DNC, not playing with you at all. Do your job—that does not include supporting tyranny by an occupied nation—Americans are beyond enraged. Don’t be the ones to light another match…this isn’t a power struggle anymore.

www.nbcnews.com/politics/con... Dems how about this don’t threaten to block DHS funding, as the Nike saying goes. “Just Do It”

Urban policing isn’t their job. Congress—the Senate specifically—needs to refuse to vote for the bill that continues funding for DHS. Now is the time to call—202-224-3121 No weaseling out about “Well, we need to find FEMA…” Fuck no! Shut it ALL DOWN! www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Noem says Homeland security will investigate the most recent killing by ICE. Not even the puppet FBI. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

To fund what? ICE? Dems have not done that. In fact, they've threatened to cut funding for the entire DHS of which ICE is only a part. Jesus Christ, people! I know blaming Dems for what the Republicans are doing is everyone's favorite pastime but please, get a grip. www.nbcnews.com/polit

You're not helping nor are you paying attention. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Making clear that senate dems are fighting this is important. Do democrats screw up (a lot)? Sure. But bashing them on every turn, even when they're largely doing the right thing isn't helping. It's exactly the mindset that got us into this mess. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

It took a second murder of a civilian for Senate Democrats to now "threaten to block" the DHS funding bill www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Congress Senate Democrats threaten to block DHS funding bill after another person murdered by a DHS agents in Minneapolis. If any republican politician votes against defunding DHS are accomplices to murder, so like Texas Sen Gregg Abbott is an accomplice to murder
