"National Nurses United remains clear and unwavering in our demands: no funding for ICE, take away the $140 billion slush fund given to ICE and CBP in H.R.1, and abolish ICE.

Calls by some members of Congress to simply reiterate existing legal protections, like requiring judicial warrants for arrests, completely fail to recognize the reality we are living. ICE and this administration have made clear that they have no intention of abiding by the law. Anything short of stripping funding from this tyrannical agency is an abdication of duty by the legislative branch."

The only way to fix ICE is to abolish it. Period.

~Abolish ICE~ seems to be a burgeoning mantra oflate.

But the question that remains seems to be...

Will Pres Trump abolish his private militia that he seems to have actively created for his use against American citizens?

Congress can zero funding. The tiny-fingered, ferret-wearing, cheeto-faced sh-tgibbon can't have what congress won't pay for.

THAT is why we have to keep pressure on them to actually abolish ICE. Nothing else is sufficient.

I leared on DR some time ago, that agencies created by congress have a life of their own and cannot be deleted by anybody even the president.

Agencies created by Congress cannot be deleted by the President. They can be deleted by Congress, though.

That is what is called separation of powers. Congress has powers that the President does not.

When did the US Congress approve of Dummkopf Trumpf's dismantling USAID or his slow collapse of the US Dept of Education?

Here's the way ahead for the next POTUS:

Executive Order No. 1 (20 Jan 2029, signed approximately 1630 HRS after the post-inaugural POTUS luncheon and entered into the Federal Register before 1700 HRS):

"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby determine and order:

~Any agent, officer, investigator, or supervisor in ICE, CBP, USBP, or DHS, will no longer carry any weapon other than a 9mm sidearm and will use non-lethal ammunition in the execution of their duties;

~Any agent, officer, investigator, or supervisor in ICE, CBP, USBP, or DHS, will no longer be allowed to wear masks, helmets, or anything that can conceal their facial features;

~All agents, officers, investigators, or supervisors in ICE, CBP, USBP, or DHS must wear functioning body-cameras and nameplates with numbers clearly identifying them;

~All agents, officers, investigators, or supervisors in ICE, CBP, USBP, or DHS must bring any detained alien before an Immigration Judge in less than 24 hours or that detainee must be immediately released;

~All agents, officers, investigators, or supervisors in ICE, CBP, USBP, or DHS are hereby prohibited from detaining US citizens or Permanent Resident Aliens without a judicial warrant signed by a federal magistrate;

~ICE will be renamed the Immigration Management Authority (IMA) and henceforth be placed under control of the Department of Justice;

~ICE badges and raid jackets will be phased out NLT than 60 days of this Executive Order to be replaced with "IMA."

Why do I have the feeling the nurses union is about to be scrutinized in the public square very soon?

suspect uses of administrative funds, perhaps some expensive parties, trips,.....you know...stuff the rank and file members of the union won't be happy to know about?

How do nurses tell a man is MAGA?

He's uncircumcised.

How do nurses tell a woman is not MAGA?

She's uncircumcised.

Of course, they will be.

Anyone who disagrees with Dear Leader will be drug through the mud, threatened and driven out of business if possible.

Those who have government power/resources to use in that task will do so.

Ah, who listens to a bunch of women? Let me know when a bunch of cowboys or steel workers call to abolish ICE. That'll mean something.

Guess you'll have to wait until one of them is shot in cold blood on American streets.

There is a Fresh Hell coming from this White House every week.

So maybe by next week.

I'm surprised none of the MAGA morons have belittled him as a "murse" yet.

100% in agreement. DHS in general is a failed organization.
