A series of recent events has inspired some soul searching on the part of democrats who still have a brain. Among them, the call to abolish ICE
- Sen. Elizabeth Warren: The Massachusetts senator and liberal fixture said Saturday at a rally in Boston: “We need to rebuild our immigration system from top to bottom by starting with replacing ICE with something that reflects our morality.”
- Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y.: Like Warren, she is a potential 2020 contender. Gillibrand decried ICE as a “deportation force” — a reference to child separation at the border that Trump officials have criticizedas being inaccurately pinned on ICE. She told CNN she would like to get “rid of it, start over, reimagine it and build something that actually works.”
- Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Wis.: The chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus is working on legislation to eliminate ICE. Reps. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., Jim McGovern, D-Mass., Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., and Mike Capuano, D-Mass., have indicated they would support such a bill, according to Vox.
- Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: The 28-year-old self-declared socialist who defeated fourth-ranking House Democrat Joe Crowley of New York last week. She ran on a platform that includes abolishing ICE.
ICE is tasked with finding and removing MS 13 gang members. The media downplays their threat. Joy Reid thinks MS 13 is a food additive:
During MSNBC’s coverage of the State of the Union, Reid mocked the president’s remarks while analyzing the speech with “Hardball” host Chris Matthews.
“He gives a speech tonight, in which he makes it sound like the biggest issue in the United States, the biggest threat is MS-13, a gang nobody that doesn’t watch Fox News has ever heard of. So he makes it sound like they’re the biggest threat.”
Reid said Trump simply mentioned the deadly gang to accommodate the “audience he wants applause from.”
MS 13 has made brutal headlines in some of the media.

Tragically poignant:
MS-13 is ‘taking over the school,’ one teen warned before she was killed
Three missing immigrant teens didn’t draw much attention to Brentwood. But that would change with the killings of Kayla Cuevas and Nisa Mickens.
Kayla, a basketball player from a Puerto Rican family, had first clashed with MS-13 two years earlier at Brentwood’s Freshman Center, where gang members spat on her, stole or broke her things and taunted her, according to her mother’s lawsuit.
Things escalated in summer school, when an MS-13 member threatened her with a knife, then continued to attend Brentwood High, the lawsuit says.
“She used to tell me, ‘Ma, they are taking over the school. It’s like they’re everywhere,’ ” said Evelyn Rodriguez, who has become the face of MS-13 victims.
Rodriguez said she and her daughter reported the bullying to school administrators, who promised the knife-wielding student wouldn’t be allowed back. But when Kayla, 16, who had exchanged online taunts with MS-13, showed up for classes that fall, he was still there, the lawsuit alleges.
After a confrontation at Brentwood, federal prosecutors say, MS-13 put a “greenlight” — or kill order — on Kayla, and members made a “throat slicing gesture” toward her at school, the lawsuit says.
A week later, she was walking home one evening with Nisa, a basketball teammate one day shy of her 16th birthday, when MS-13 members spotted them and attacked with a machete and baseball bats, according to prosecutors. The girls were beaten to death.
This is the group that Pelosi said had the “spark of divinity.”
Liberals indoctrinate students to not be proud of their country
Wanting to see how college students would gauge their own levels of patriotism, I headed to New York University, in Manhattan, to ask a simple question: are you proud to be American?
Student after student made it clear: they were not.
“No! I’m not proud of America. I’m not proud of what we’ve done,” said one student, while another simply declared, “definitely not.”
One student, addressing the concept of American Exceptionalism, said “I think we need to stop thinking we’re the best nation on Earth. It’s just egotistical and not accurate.” When asked which country is better than America, she responded, “probably some nice little socialist country in Europe.”
One student went so far as to say that “patriotic views about America” are nothing more than “a tool to be used to get people to join the Army.”
The DNC is embracing full blown socialism
The chairman of the Democratic National Party, Tom Perez, on Tuesday said socialist political candidates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are the “future” of the party.
Ocasio-Cortez, a self-described “democratic socialist” who defeated a top House Democrat in a recent primary election, symbolizes where the party is headed, Perez told “The Bill Press Show.”
“I have three kids. two of them are daughters. One just graduated college, one who is in college – and they were both texting me about their excitement over Alexandria because she really – she represents the future of our party,” Perez said.

They liken the treatment of illegal alien invaders to the holocaust

They’re bat sh*t crazy. Absolutely bat sh*t crazy. This from Charlie Kirk:
Where does America stand? Not there. We are more on the side of Trump:
An overwhelming majority of likely American voters prefer a free market over a socialist economic system, according to a Rasmussen poll.
The poll, which was conducted at the beginning of the month, revealed that 74 percent of the people surveyed support a free market. Conversely, only 13 percent of people questioned would prefer a socialist economic system. Another 13 percent said they were undecided.
The results of this poll highly contradicted Democratic Socialist congressional hopeful Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s statements and platform.y.
It’s so bad that democrats are beginning to #walkaway.
Lea Anna Bright, in a mohawk, looks into the camera and says in a slow, simmering voice: “This is a Vice article I am reading right now. It says, ‘The activist left doesn’t give a [expletive] about your calls for civility. Get ready for a summer of rage.’” She looks up. “This is where the party is going, and this is why I chose to walk away. Peace. Not for me. Bye.”
A man adjusts his video camera and sits back. The walls behind him are a tasteful grey-blue. He’s a gay, affluent, native New Yorker, and he’s coming out of the second closet of his life. For Ricky Roberts, the moment came after the Orlando nightclub shootings.
“Trump said he was going to protect gay men, and he did, [with] the travel ban. Hillary was telling Americans not to ‘pick on all Muslims because of this,’” and that did not feel like protection, Roberts says. “I swear to God, wanted to throw my shoe through the TV.
“At that point I was like, I can’t do it anymore. I really can’t.
“You know, listen, I’m a gay guy from New York City, but before that, I’m an American, I’m a patriot. I’m now an uncle.”
His assessment of the Democrats: “From immigration to everything, they are just a disaster.
“They’re anti-American, anti-common sense, rational—anything good, they’re against it.”
The democrat party is now the party of violence and hate. It is the party of insanity. With Tom Perez and Keith Ellison in charge, no on ought to be surprised.
If you’re a democrat, is this the road you want to take?
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
I LOOKED UP DEMOCRAT i found SLVAERY,the KKK,CROSS BURNINGS nd TREASON. Instand Karma the scumbag who stole that young mans MAGA hat was FIRED from his job I hope he is crying in his Safe Space
There was a time, JFK and before, when being a Democrat meant being a classical liberal.
Classical liberalism is still in existence, it is in the Republican party.
It was rebranded “compassionate conservatism,” after Democrats left it behind a few years ago.
But now Democrats are so crazed by hatred that they are even “eating their own.”
A recent example:
Tons of black leaders wrote to Schumer and Pelosie that they need to give Maxine Waters her safe space no matter what outrageous blather comes out of her mouth.

The Democrat party is of the ignorant, by the ignorant, for the ignorant. They are now the victim of their own tactics, believing that just because a few loud-mouths can make as much indiscriminate din as a large group it means they have broad support. It is turning out they are isolating themselves by listening to the extremist radicals that simply scream the loudest and most.
While only a few could have imagined Trump would be the leader and President he had turned out to be (and I can’t honestly claim I was one), the choice between him and the most transparent and obvious lying criminal to ever run for President was pretty stark. Yet, liberals still voted for corruption. They weren’t satisfied to simply accidentally find corruption thrust upon them due to subterfuge; they WANTED it… REAL BAD.
Total ignorance.
@Deplorable Me: When canvassing neighborhoods they ask “Have you accepted the Government as your Lord and Savior?” No? Repent we are all racists and only Global humanism can save you.
Leftists have been programmed to believe that conservatives are the true evil in the world. After looking into the real faces of hate and violent anger on the left, many of them see the truth and are leaving. Obama’s DNC said that “government is the one thing we all belong to”, when in reality God and freedom are what we belong to. Unfortunately, most of humanity will never experience God or freedom until death.
The Democrat Party this is the same party some Hollywood Airhead said was BY THE PEOPLE,OF THE PEOPLE FOR THE PEOPLE the same party that want Open Borders and want to abolish ICE the party that put a rapists in the Whitehouse back in 1992 the same party that want law abiding Americans disarmed the DNC are real villian’s against America
maybe the idiot warren should take a few ms-13 into hr house for a month or two and have the wonderous “experience” of living with these animals
MOS#8541. A Great Idea let all the democrats set a space on the vast estate for the so called refugees and especialy the MS-13 goons lets see the Stupid Jackass Party(Democrats)take care of them and watch their homes get looted
When I was young, JFK was my favorite President. He was touted as a war hero, commanded a PT boat, lost a brother in the war my father fought in, cut taxes, was openly anti-communist and best of all, wanted the USA to be first to the Moon!
Look at the pathetic excuse for a Democrat party extant today compared to that.
@Meremortal: You left out one of the best parts….He was married to Jackie!
@Meremortal: Yet even then it was fake news about jfk’s heroism. His boat got cut in half by a destroyer because he had violated a standing order that PTs keep one engine running at all times. He didn’t like to wait in line for gas when there was partying to be done. Also, he didn’t “volunteer to go to the Pacific-he did it to avoid a court martial after sleeping with a nazi spy in Britain while he was there as a naval attache with his hitler loving gangster father. They hustled him out right quickly. Even the dims back then had the press on their side to glorify a drugged up womanizer as a hero. BTW-he was a hero to me back then-I even built a model of the 109! I grew up and learned the facts.
this woman is a fraud. her academic and political time line does not match her service with whore dog teddy-she would have been only 8 y/o
I fear that diversity and multiculturalism is dividing and conquering the masses of USA common folks allowing tyrannical elite-class overlords to use their army of well-paid lackeys and unholy ties with government at all levels to steadily destroy the Founders’ creation.
A New Dark Age awaits us peons who will be mere serfs to our overlords and overseers. A feudal system of sorts. The Founders wrote what needs doing when tyranny rears its ugly head. Where is our much-needed New Founders to guide our efforts?
Is the party of Donald Trump your father’s GOP? Is it the GOP of any recent republican president? Is the morality that Donald Trump has adhered to during his life the morality of your father’s faith? Do 5 consecutive draft deferments reflect the patriotism and sense of duty your father or grandfather displayed? Does he exhibit as much respect for truth and honesty as any respected American president of the past? Are you answering the foregoing honestly and keeping track of your answers?
@Greg:
No more so than the Democratic Party is the party of FDR and JFK.
No, thank goodness.
OMG, you want to talk about morality? Hello……Bill Clinton, remember him?
Again……………..hello!!! Bill Clinton
Well, at least he (Trump) never told the American people if they like their health insurance they could keep their health insurance or promised there were “shovel ready” jobs.
You know NOTHING about honesty. It is a foreign concept to you.
And you are STILL an idiot.
@Greg:
Hey, you never answered my question of would it be bad if the media was lying to the people, honestly or otherwise. Also, do you consider Hillary’s quip that all black men look alike racist?
@retire05: Um… Clinton didn’t get a deferment… he simply fled the country and wrote how he “loathed” the military. Yeah, that’s the liberal icon the left worships.
Morality… JFK, Ted Kennedy, hero of Chappaquiddick, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Gary Hart, John Edwards, Franken, Ellison, Booker… damn, the list could go on and on.
Yeah, morality. None of your examples have sunk to the sub-basement levels of the Trump administration, where money is worshiped as a god.
Why Does Alex Acosta Still Have a Job? The cabinet official’s connection to a shady deal for an alleged child molester.
A far better question would be Why this was a man with so questionable a history appointed by Trump to be Secretary of Labor to begin with?
Stunning new report details Trump’s labor secretary’s role in plea deal for billionaire sex abuser
@Greg: Wait… would this be the same Jeffery Epstein that carried Bill Clinton to his island of sexual perversions aboard the “Lolita Express” numerous times (and Hillary as well, a few times… how’s that for sick?) and provided Bubba with the young girls he finds… entertaining? I seem to remember that this wasn’t such a bad thing when the Clinton’s were front and center of this scandal. Something changed?
@Greg: That horrid pervert seems Bubba and Stinky were frequent flyers to Lolita Island, who could have influenced the judge to give a sweetheart deal who was running for President and wouldnt want all that out there. Bolstered by unlimited funds and represented by a powerhouse legal team, Epstein’s “army of legal superstars’’ who, he said, investigated individual prosecutors and their families, looking for “personal peccadilloes’’ to disqualify them from Epstein’s case. What, if anything, did Epstein’s investigators find out about Acosta and/or others on his team? Anything blackmailable? Seems the lawyers acted much like Mueller. A few articles say Epstein was a friend of the President, hmm seems DT Booted his ass out of Mar-a-Lago in 1999, 8 years before the Clintons BFF trial.
@kitt: I won’t even ask what the B & F’s mean in regards to Clinton.
@Deplorable Me, #18:
Epstein was a widely connected billionaire. He moved in circles of wealth and power and constantly had guests to his estate that were part of that category. That doesn’t mean everyone who knew him or was ever there was involved in his secret depravities. Trump was a friend and guest there, just as Clinton was a guest there. Prince Andrew was a guest there.
Have a look at Case 1:16-cv-04642, Jane Doe v. Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, filed 09/30/2016 in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case was dropped November 4, 2016. The Plaintiff’s lawyer stated her client wouldn’t proceed because she was receiving death threats.
Trump’s Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta arranged a highly irregular 2008 deal that quietly settled Florida child trafficking charges against Epstein with a single guilty plea and an 18 month prison sentence, which he was allowed to serve in a private wing of the Palm Beach County stockade. He only served 13 months before being granted release on probation, and prior to that had been allowed to commute to his downtown Palm Beach office outside of the facility on work release for 12 hours daily. The charges against him would otherwise have carried a life sentence.
Who said this about Epstein? You can Google the quote, if you don’t know.
@Deplorable Me: Greg answered your questions. He is part of the party and is Bat S__t crazy! How else can you interpret his responses?
Greg will never accept what is about to happen
@Greg: But when the Clinton’s ride his plane to hi pedophile island, that’s OK, right?
@Randy: Yet he won’t answer a question about if it would be bad if the media lied to us. That one is very, very difficult to conceive, it seems.
