Dems Unveil Plans to Reign in ICE Agents If They Win Midterm

[Rep. Seth] Magaziner said that this would involve requiring ICE agents to follow the same standards as local police officers, including no masks, the use of body cameras, visible badge numbers, and guaranteeing that anyone detained by ICE receives due process before a judge and has the opportunity to present their case before deportation.

Educators say incidents, including tear gas moving towards the playground and a woman being dragged to the floor near a school by ICE officers in Chicago, are disrupting their jobs, upending their communities and traumatizing their students.

I cannot believe that Donald Trump will allow the mid-terms to go forward. There is too much at stake for him.

If the mid-terms actually do happen, then it will because Donald Trump well and truly thinks that the fix is in.

If the mid-terms happen, and go against Trump, then he will put tanks in the streets.

I think he will put tanks in the streets - martial law - to stop the midterms.

It seems entirely possible that he will put tanks in the street simply to block the Epstein Files.

ICE was a de jure formalization of the notorious ad hoc 1920 Palmer Raids to remove aliens and undesirables quickly during the "Red Scare." But the barn door has been open far too long for progressives and Democrats to act now to defang ICE, which was created over 20 years ago under the so-called "Patriot Act."


So, here we are today.

Democrats should spend more time making sure there are elections in 2026.

I can't believe we'll have another election until Trump is sure the fix is in. He'll do whatever to create the need for the Insurrection Act, including lying to justify it. Once it is activated, you can kiss elections goodbye. He'll move heaven and earth to keep the Epstein files buried. According to some reports, he's in photos with two naked to the waist young girls, which were in Epstein's safe. The FBI had to go back and retrieve them.

Pam Bondi refused to answer if the FBI had found those photos or if she had seen them. In otherwords, she didn't perjure herself. She just refused to answer the question and tried attacking the questioners to avoid the question the first time she was asked, the second time she just looked at them without response. While not admission, it's a strong hint as to why Trump doesn't want the Epstein files to surface.

Supreme Court Fundamentalist fanatics will most likely give Trump the midterms by overturning most of the Civil Rights Act that remains.
