Sen. Bernie Sanders also demanded “fundamental reforms” to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection, saying they are “terrorizing” 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 Miller—a key architect of Donald Trump’s violent mass deportation campaign—as 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 “domestic military force” that is “terrorizing” communities across the country. The senator pointed specifically to the agency’s ongoing activities in Minnesota and Maine, where officers have committed horrific—and deadly—abuses.
Sanders said that “not another penny should be given” to ICE or Customs and Border Protection (CBP) “unless there are fundamental reforms in how those agencies function—and until there is new leadership at the Department of Homeland Security and among those who run our immigration policy.” 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.


But with Bernie you knew where he stood, you knew what he was pissed about and what systems he wanted to dismantle. The rich Dems of the east Coast south and west coast couldn’t handle that.
It was literally the Midwest and iron belt that supported him and pacific nw that supported him
Trump was going to destroy everything for his own benefit not for the betterment of the general public.
Nebraska is a red state, I knew more people excited about Bernie than Trump, I threw a tantrum when Hillary got the nod and was told by better off people I knew in far bigger cities and with more money that Hillary was the safe bet. Still to this day same people so excited for Gavin Newsom, they post their hatred everyday about Trump but they aren’t willing to vote for anyone who will put up a fight with the fip. Gavin isn’t it
