Does this mean more funding for ICE. Is training the answer?

Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) today announced the introduction of two accountability bills to strengthen federal law enforcement standards. The legislation would establish minimum hiring and training standards for all federal law enforcement officers and require the use of body-worn cameras (BWCs) by federal officers on duty

(2,765 posts)In what world does he think this is where Democrats are? There is no retraining, upping standards. ABOLISH ICE and persecute them.
There is no other answer.

(14,761 posts)Why is the answer always more police (ICE) and never less ???
They always use training as an excuse.
There is no emergency.
This shit is all made up by Trump and his administration.
They are the ones that are causing the problem.

(7,199 posts)We don't even know who these thugs are, though I suspect most are white supremacists and/or Jan 6th alumni.
Why "reform" something that is illegal and unconstitutional?

(37,639 posts)They aren't trained in anything. They are functionally illiterate meat heads. They couldn't pass an open book test and they are allowing obese people who can't do sit ups to "pass" the physical test.
They are hired for their die hard belief in The Leader and love of inflicting pain on others.
I'm getting ready to make a second call to Booker's offices today. Andy Kim voted for Noem so he's not going to allow common sense to get in the way of his ego.

Defund at the end of the month and THEN you can build back better. Turn off the spigot Senator. They are flooding the zone.

(10,754 posts)masked men from our streets. It isnt managed or facilitated professionally. It operates illegally by rogue actors and should be shut down until it can be revamped. Nothing will happen until somebody, either Congress or the courts, or both step in. It doesnt appear that will happen until at least Krasnov and the Secretary of Murder and Kidnapping are removed.
