Democrats Got Zero ICE Reforms - Right?

All Krasnov had to do was illegally steal money from one government agency and use that money to pay TSA workers. Congressional Magats will make it official by passing a bill to fund everything but ICE.

The shutdown is over, ICE was never out of money, it was funded from the Big Ugly Death Bill, Magats just wanted more money for ICE, it has the highest budget of every other law enforcement agency.

Now Congressional Magats can leisurely pass more money for ICE through reconciliation.

Magats got everything they wanted.

Still waiting to hear where Krasnov stole the money to pay TSA workers, I guess it doesn't matter, he is king.

We may as well just put all of our tax dollars into a sovereign wealth fund for Krasnov to disburse as he sees fit, we really don't need Congress.

Now all Dems can easily vote against it and keep their base and independents together going into the midterms.

Reform is not enough. ICE has to be abolished and the individuals who abused people need to be held accountable.

Are Democrats afraid, (politically) to challenge where Krasnov stole the money to pay the TSA workers?

Now we have precedence that it doesn't matter if Congress allocated money for whatever, the president can just take that money and give it to another department.

We did GOTV, Kamala Harris won the election.

Maybe Democrats should nominate a non-politician for president, like Malcolm Nance or Miles Taylor? Fighters.

Way back in BC time a man named Pythagoras used calculations to prove that the world wasn't flat but basically round. Many people laughed him off until many centuries later Magellan sailed round the world.

Just like experts showed the statistics, the graphs with the anomalies in only the battleground states that showed how Krasnov stole the election from Kamala, but most people can't bring themselves to believe that Republicans cheat to win.

Al Gore won, Jeb Bush had no right to stop the recount, the SC had no authority to choose our president.
John Kerry also won, votes from Ohio were transferred to a warehouse in Tennessee where votes were flipped from Kerry to Bush, the programmer who did it, admitted it.

Kamala Harris also won.

This next election will be the dirtiest of them all with ICE agents inside election sites, even though it is a felony for them to be there, but we let them do it.

even if Krasnov pardons them.

We need total control and a priority should be to reform and severely restrict the pardon power, maybe abolish it.
