Members of Congress expressed outrage at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for deceiving eight men who were recently deported to South Sudan, as revealed earlier this week in an investigation by The Intercept. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., called the expulsions “abhorrent.”
Before the men boarded a plane in May, officials told them that they were being sent on a short trip from Texas to another ICE facility in Louisiana. Many hours later, the plane landed in Djibouti.
It’s time for Democrats to knock this shit off. Oh but the rules, but the rules.
PSA: People that openly flout laws and systems of order, don’t give a shit about the rules bud. No wonder they lost. Load of impotent geeks is what they are.
What exactly do you expect them to do? They’re impotent because we didn’t give them any power.
whatever the fuck mitch mcconnell would do.
Filibuster everything.
They need to start fighting fire with fire. It’s not like the other side is that intelligent in a lot of ways, so trying to fight with logic isn’t going to get this done. Start a misinformation campaign like they do or something. Damn glad it ain’t my problem, don’t get me wrong. But I do see both sides of it, and democratic arrogance is how we are here too, in a lot of ways.
As brain dead as this is, maybe quit running women in must win elections. I ain’t saying it’s right, or that’s fair or just (it shouldn’t even be a thing). But it’s literally stacking the odds against you in insurmountable fashion. Nothing against Kamala, but if was pretty clear right out of the gates she was going to lose, and they just ignored it.
We can’t oppose people breaking the law and break the same law ourselves. That’s just nonsensical hypocrisy.
I’m afraid all the conventional rules are out the window. I mean when the stakes are becoming what they are, you do what needs done. That doesn’t involve going to Congress, writing bills that will never get passed or going before a supreme court where the conclusion is decided before the case even gets underway.
Crying on CNN isn’t going to stop what’s going on, I know that much for sure.
I agree with the sentiment and there are for sure things they should be doing, like stonewalling and slowing down every thing they can. Other than that, what do you propose they do outside of the rules?
