I'm So Disappointed with Schumer and Jeffries. They Don't Agree with Me 100%.

27. This point would have been arguable decades ago

Pre trumps first term maybe. For me it is laughable going back at least three decades. We had the clues back in the 90s, that is Repubs want complete control, they want to criminalize liberals.

After trumps first term, after Jan 6, after the last year, it is a straight up laughable point.

I’m retired, it would be great to kick back, ignore the shit show, let others deal with it. I don’t have grandkids, but I might, and either way, I’m not going to stop fighting to make this Country better. (More accurately, to stop this Country’s slide into fascism)

So with people being murdered by Feds, a private army for the fascists, there is not a simple solution, a few minor points that need to be incorporated.

Compromising and folding is not an option. I will be god damned if I will support short term bipartisan measures to fund a terrorist organization. Because then a quarter later, after the next foreseeable tragedy, the Repubs will be all over the media stating “we had bipartisan support for the funding.”

Point of reference, we are less than a qtr away from the same arguments being made to stop the shutdown. Trump got what he wanted, millions lost healthcare.

If you don’t want to fight, ok, some of us get it. But it is offensive to point fingers at, to condemn the fighters.

Edit to add after reading up thread request for solutions:

1. Furlough every ICE/DHS hired since Jan 1 2025.

We have mountains of video evidence that they are untrained, under misconception that they are the judge, jury, and executioner.

2. Thorough background checks of all remaining employees.

The actions over the last year lead to the logical observation that existing employees have been at best, incapable of mentoring.
