Dems MUST shutdown government to deal with ICE [View all] Eddie Haskell 60 Jan 14 OP

DURec leftstreet Jan 14 #1

Demand a federal law reigning in ICE before any negotiations can happen. SSJVegeta Jan 14 #2

Demand mr715 Jan 14 #4

Perhaps even add 3 sets of 8 count pushups, 5 burpees -and a cerificate in accounting to the list. SSJVegeta Jan 14 #7

And of course mr715 Jan 14 #8

We can dream SSJVegeta Jan 14 #9

Do not be complicit in crimes against humanity. mr715 Jan 14 #3

They'll get backpay like last time Eddie Haskell 60 Jan 15 #35

So how long are you willing to sacrifice them for? Republicans aren't going to agree to defund ICE tritsofme Jan 15 #37

Not nearly as cruel Eddie Haskell 60 Jan 16 #40

But how does a government shutdown get you any closer to accomplishing those goals? tritsofme Jan 16 #46

A shutdown may not defund ICE... maspaha Jan 14 #14

I'm not sure how forcing federal employees to work without pay for weeks or months is courageous. tritsofme Jan 15 #38

No one said 'want.' I believe it is about forcing them to do so by opposing every single little thing they try. PatrickforB Jan 14 #15
