Sen. Bernie Sanders also demanded āfundamental reformsā to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, saying they are āterrorizingā US communities.
US Sen. Bernie Sanders on Wednesday demanded the removal of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Millerāa key architect of Donald Trumpās violent mass deportation campaignāas well as concrete reforms in exchange for any new funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
In remarks on the Senate floor, Sanders (I-Vt.) called ICE a ādomestic military forceā that is āterrorizingā communities across the country. The senator pointed specifically to the agencyās ongoing activities in Minnesota and Maine, where officers have committed horrificāand deadlyāabuses.
Sanders said that ānot another penny should be givenā to ICE or Customs and Border Protection (CBP) āunless there are fundamental reforms in how those agencies functionāand until there is new leadership at the Department of Homeland Security and among those who run our immigration policy.ā The senator has proposed repealing a $75 billion ICE funding boost that the GOP approved last summer, an end to warrantless arrests, the unmasking of ICE and CBP agents, and more.


Itās litterally those places Bernie was winning in 2016.
The profundness of the idiocy people have trying to winnow politics down to a single dimension of left versus right.
Voters who ended up going for Trump in the general were sick of the anti democratic status quo. Voters who went for Bernie in the primary were sick of the anti democratic status quo.
By forcing Hillary down the throat of the voters, the DNC fueled Trumpās base.
Go search āwhy Trump voters vote for AOCā or āwhy Trump voters vote for mamdaniā.
You already losing us voters with this myopic view of how people dev their political identity
