    Wow Republicans disobeyed Trump by not passing the SAVE Act and not funding ICE/CBP… Thank you for your attention to this matter!

      They’re working on the other funding in reconciliation, so ICE may still be funded, but that’s not a done deal and at least there isn’t the other pressure of funding less controversial things to give it a boost.

    I was sure the Democrats caved when I saw this headline. I don’t know what it feels like to win (even if only temporarily).

        Sorry for being a pattern recognizing being and learning from past experience. Hopefully this is the start of a new Democratic party.

    “The House passed a bill funding DHS, minus dollars for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection. The measure passed by voice vote on what was the 76th day of the shutdown.”

      Incredible. If ICE can’t kidnap and kill people with the $150 billion they already have then maybe we need to start over with new ideas anyway.

    Because the fascist slush fund was invented to paper over the fascist holes. It’s just official cheating.

    See what’s possible when you stand by your convictions and fight for what’s right? This is just a taste. Keep it up America.
