    Default Democratic leader AOC wants to abolish ICE.

    You think that's a good idea? Think it will help the Dems in future polls?


    Republicans are ripping progressive New York Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for renewing her call to abolish U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in a recent fundraising email.

    "I believe that ICE, an agency that was just formed in 2003 during the Patriot Act era, is a rogue agency that should not exist," Ocasio-Cortez said in a fundraising email obtained by Fox News Digital.

    The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), House Republicans' campaign arm, criticized the potential 2028 presidential candidate in an X post for fundraising on wanting to abolish ICE, a progressive rallying cry that rejects President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration.

    "House Democrat Minority Leader AOC is doubling down on their party’s most extreme, unhinged agenda, while the rest of her party is bending their knee to the radical wing. At this rate, the Democrat platform in 2026 will be a fever dream of defunding the police, wide open borders, and far-left hellscapes," NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella told Fox News Digital in a statement.

    Ocasio-Cortez says she is considered "extreme" because she supports Medicare for All, champions the Green New Deal, challenges Democratic Party leadership, believes in "democratic socialism," is funded by small-dollar donations and believes ICE should "not exist."

    "Pathetic, yet predictable from AOC," DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News Digital. "This kind of demonization of ICE officers has led to our officers facing a 413% increase in assaults. While bottom-barrel politicians like AOC fight to protect criminal illegal aliens, our ICE officers will continue putting their lives and safety on the line to arrest murderers, kidnappers, and pedophiles that were let into our country by the Biden Administration’s open border policies."

    The crazier and more lawless that Party gets, the further and further they get from holding office ever again.

    AOC's campaign platform:

    - Redistribute the wealth
    - Bring in the illegals
    - Eradicate the genders
    - Defund the police

    Whomever wins the Democratic nomination will be the next POTUS, these MAGA scoff rn but we'll see. Yes, the pendulum swing will be wild because it's happened before and it will happen again.

    Clinton - GWB - Obama - Trump

    Not saying it's AOC to be clear but redistribute the wealth will resonate with Americans, most whom are living paycheck to paycheck and are finding out that illegals ain't the reason you can't pay your rent...

    well the only difference this time around is trump is ruining a lot of shit that is pissing voters off. terribly economy, job market sucks (somehow biden was a lot better at this), all the fired federal workers, no due process for illegals, ICE doing their best Gestapo impersonation nabbing up people outside of immigration courts, tarrifs, ruined relationships with key trade partners resulting in fcking up all sorts of businesses and commerce in general, etc.

    all of his moves are having so many consequences on the middle class especially. i'm sure MAGA will be left looking like shocked pikachu when a dem wins with overwhelming amount of electoral and overall votes. another round of "election fraud, illegals voted, the dems did this and that to buy the election".


    *drives economy into the ground, does absolutely nothing of value for the country*
    *dems win the white house next round*
    MAGA:

    If you can't pay your rent maybe you need to reevaluate your life's choices. Maybe you should live below your means.

    I guarantee you that there people across the globe who can only imagine the type of privileged life you lead. To have your own home, vehicle, indoor plumbing, indoor heating and cooling, an abundance of food, internet access, smart phone, consistent running electricity, products and goods delivered to your home at the push of a button... etc.

    You live like a literal god king compared to so many people around the world and you are so ahead of the game, and it's still not enough. You still feel the need to take from others what you didn't earn.

    *lemme try to defend absurd inflationary rates on the world's leading currency and economy by explaining that they need to live more affordable now that everything is significantly more expensive thanks to trump's terrible tariff and economic policies devaluing our currency as well as lesser job opportunities compared to a year ago, that'll convince him. surely he'll see that it's not trump's fault for ruining the economy but it's his fault for expecting the dollar to afford him the same lifestyle that he was able to afford for the past decade*

    I'm doing ok, bruh. I have two businesses and looking to start up a third on my off days but the stats are there, brother. Most Americans work hard, hell they're amongst the most productive worldwide but somehow most live paycheck to paycheck. People are pissed, you're fooling yourself if you think most Americans are happy with their financial situation and it's getting worse instead of better. Who do Americans blame? The party in power. The Democrats are awful, no doubt but in a two party system, the other option becomes attractive when you ain't happy. When all the illegals are gone and people's lives don't get better, the message that it's not the illegals taking your jobs but rather the oligarchs that don't want to pay you a liveable wage is what's gonna resonate, and wealth redistribution will become popular.

    When people feel downtrodden, they take it out on the rich, you can debate if it's fair or not but if we keep going down this road, the people will throw out the bums in charge either by the ballot box or with pitchforks. That's how socialism becomes an attractive alternative around the world, and it's because greedy elites are never content with what they have. Hopefully we don't get to that but late stage capitalism is a bitch.

    Dude you just said you're in favor of pushing for a genderless trans utopian society. "Solid" was the word I think you used.

    You might as well not even delve into any other subjects because nothing you say from here on out will convince me that you're anything other than a deranged weirdo. Flat earthers have more credibility than you.
