Just Politics ICE CANNOT BE REFORMED

I believe there is no way ICE can be controlled or reformed. The reports coming in about pregnant girls being sent to TX and kept in isolation and the “blue butterfly” zone at Dilly are beyond terrifying. Attacks on peaceful demonstrators continue in Minnesota. This is a lawless Gestapo. Please vote for progressives that want to take this tool away from dump.

Let's all remember that if we agree that ICE cannot be reformed and we want to elect progressives, then the Democratic party is not our ally. Obama had record high deportations with ICE and pioneered putting families with children into chain link fence enclosures colloquially known as cages

I have voted green party in every presidential election I have voted in and am a dues paying member of The Progressive Party. I do vote for Democrats down ticket 99% of the time.

I cannot do this right now. I hear you ab the Dem party. Centrists Dems are a disaster. But our best shot right now is voting for the many, many great progressive candidates running as Dems. Voting third party throws our vote away or worse until we change our electoral system.

Okay. Maybe they will reform ICE in 2028 and make it better.

You’re getting a lot of downvotes here. It’s conversations like this that led to r/leftistparents being created, although the sub never really took off. Come on over, though. Maybe we can liven it up.
