ICE MUST be abolished. You cannot change the culture of a corruptly implemented and operated organization. ICE will forever stick in the throats of every decent citizen and immigrant. Those who seek only to reform ICE will fail and their political careers will be over in a single term.
You think that’s the only problem? Or the 18 to 50 year old ageists that won’t vote for anyone “old” - whatever that means to them, which may be 65, 70, whatever they in their witless existence proclaim.
beat your ass at anything requiring intelligence and wisdom.
Do all elderly suffer from dementia at some point? Fuck no. What’s the percentage? You don’t fucking know. All you did right now is to show that YOU, not the elderly in general, are unfit for any position requiring not just intelligence, but wisdom and social skills. Bring it, micro brain. I’ll
that ageists have failed to develop wisdom. Most likely from rejecting the wisdom of older mentors who have tried create lifelong continuous learners capable of transformative change. If you think age makes one easy to push around, come on and give it try.
would be lacking the insight that wisdom brings to the table. Not all people gain wisdom, but no one gains wisdom without age - some sooner and some later depending on how well they understand issues and determine if and how they apply to other situations or not. Thanks for proving the point
You aren’t old enough to have gained a grain of wisdom, which is only possible through constant reflection on a wide variety of world happenings and life experiences. You can’t tell the difference between age and cynical entitlement. If it wasn’t for people 65 and older nearly every domain in life
Then I can’t wait until it is no longer voluntary

needs of the job. Immediate dismissal for any abusive behavior, talk, threats, social media posts, conduct unbecoming. You cannot change this culture. Culture eats strategy for breakfast.
The only common sense thing to do with ICE is to abolish it. You cannot change their corrupt culture. Their name will forever be associated with the violence they perpetrate. A new agency that starts out with a clean, ethical vision and mission; untainted leadership. Training based on verifiable
I hope that squirrel covers his nuts around republicans!

Criming for grandiose self-enrichment
He was a douche before Trump ran for president. Trump fit his pre-existing hatred and mockery of all that is decent. It does no good to apologize for the consequences of the douchery he still engages in, but just not with Trump for the moment.
This "torment" seems awfully tied to the current polling. Would he be apologizing if the numbers were up? Doubtful.
A lesson that many millions of people are going to have to learn if they want to be functioning citizens in society.
True repentance isn't simply saying "i'm sorry".
It requires deep, honest self-examination, humility and making ammends for the harm you've caused. It requires you to re-evaluate your choices and a willingnss to address the shortcomings that lead you to your actions.
"Oops" doeesn't cut it.
Many of us have been saying this since his 3rd campaign. As if he’s going to follow the fascist/Nazi playbook in every way except the internment camps. You can’t change what is going to happen unless you believe it is going to happen.

in showing them it doesn’t matter how much $ AIPAC gives them, we won’t vote for them unless they represent our values.
whatever Trump is for; and Trump doesn’t give a shit what his constituents are for - if they disagree with him they are dead to him.
Ideally, politicians should represent the same worldview as their constituents rather than following them because they are afraid of losing. But this is a first step
This speaks highly to the intelligence, humanity, and strength of citizens registered (for now) as Dems. We dug in and in fear of losing our vote (unfortunately not likely because change in worldview) our elected politicians THEN changed their minds. It is not that way with MAGA. They are for
The SAVE Act – which would require documents like a passport or birth certificate to #RegisterToVote –has failed in the Senate.

Yes! Great to see it! Pete, Pritzger. They are the ones!
Hard to believe the prescience of artists like Larsen.
As we read this about the Roberts Court let’s remember the shadow docket grievously harmed American scientific research, cancer cures, and public health over the past year.

How is this not a non-stop story on the news?!?
Our corrupt criminal President is suing his own departments -- that he controls -- in order to steal $10 billion for himself.
And the silence of the GOP is pathetic.
