Democrats have a problem. The left wing of their party is pushing ‘Abolish ICE’ again. The problem with that is the last time their party opened the borders all the way, there was a major backlash that helped cost them the election in 2024.
So once again the party is split between the ‘establishment’ and the ‘crazies’.
The Left sees this as a vital part of their project for dismantling America. The Democrat establishment can muster no higher objections to that so long as it’s couched in terms like ‘decolonization’ or ‘the right side of history’, but it only objects to the electoral impact for the rest of their program. And that’s usually how the argument plays out which is why the Left wins the long game.
Still the Dems are usually aware enough to let the situation spin as far out of control as it did under Biden. Even Obama didn’t allow the degree of open borders that Biden did. But the difference was that Biden was profoundly out to lunch and sizable chunks of his policy apparatus had been outsourced to Sen. Elizabeth Warren allies, courtesy of Obama, which allowed the Left to do what it liked with a president who was out to lunch and a policymaking apparatus geared to allow leftist activists to run the show.
Dems are terrified of embracing ‘Abolish ICE’. They remember how unpopular ‘Defund the Police’ and ‘open borders’ were.
But they also have no way to escape it. The Dem establishment’s short lived effort at a post-election moderate turnaround was quickly hijacked by leftist anti-Trump ‘populism’. And the Dems themselves are busy fulminating at ICE and that plays directly into the hands of the Left. Instead of defining their own agenda, they’re taking cues from their radicals, and falling in line, only struggling to draw the line at a slogan like ‘Abolish ICE’. But they can’t stop helping the Left make its case for abolishing ICE anyway.
Even though they know it will lose elections.
But that’s the difference between the Left and the Dem establishment. The latter cares about the next election while the former wants to win the long game of destroying America.

“Populism” is the D-Bag’s latest meme, since “affordability” backfired because they’re the vermin who caused it and President Trump is the man who’s been solving it……AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT. NOBODY forgets the four years of Hell Alzheimer Joe’s handlers wrought.
D-bags are all slogans and no substance. But white women just luv them. White bitches are the worst and most destructive people in America, BY FAR. They should never have been given the vote.
They are fanatics.
The Dems would hate the description of used for the left here in Australia for years, which is “all bang and flash but no bullet”.
Our leftards are also big fans of the anti gun rhetoric as well.
Yes. Anti gun rhetoric helps left-wing trannies and other nutsos to go on shooting sprees.
Instead of Abolishing ICE lets defund the UN its a far better move we can save the money to finance ICE and More Police instead of that Globalists mob of no good thieves who still treat their own people like trash
And after defunding the UN, let’s start charging rent (at going rates, not rent-stabilized nonsense) for the use of the UN properties. Oh, and stop giving UN officials a free pass on NY parking tickets.
Hell, we should do both of these things even if we DON’T defund the UN.
First America, then western civilization itself. To be replaced by what–something younger, and far more brutal? Oh, for joy!
Abolish ICE is just an extension of the “Defund the Police” idiocy which the only purpose is to entertain the Dem’s voter base made up of Cretins.
Whatever demoncraps are doing to grow increasingly unpopular and lose elections, please, keep doing it.
Yeah. “unpopular” is their real credo and motto.
Supposedly pollsters have the Dems way up on the GOP in congress. I find this hard to believe but nobody should underestimate the stupidity of the voters – they gave us Biden and Mamdani in NYC.
