He’s quite happy to work and plan with them as the leader of the dems. He’s literally happy to collaborate them and work against actual progress how is he at all better?
Now, there’s a bipartisan bill sent over from the Senate. Every single Senate Democrat, every single Senate Republican supported that legislation. It would reopen the TSA, reopen FEMA, reopen the Coast Guard, reopen the ability for our cybersecurity professionals to do their job, while at the same time allowing for discussions—tough negotiations—to continue. On one side of that negotiations are my Republican colleagues who want to continue to spend taxpayer dollars to brutalize and kill American citizens, unleashing masked, untrained ICE agents, in some cases storming homes of everyday Americans, ripping them out of their beds in the middle of the night, ripping children away from their families, detaining people in inhumane conditions, refusing to allow state and local authorities to investigate ICE violence and brutality in ways that will be designed to bring about accountability.
This debate, at the end of the day, is really all about: Do you want to compel ICE to conduct themselves like every other cop, police officer or law enforcement agency in the country? Or do you want to continue to spend billions of taxpayer dollars to violently target American citizens and law abiding immigrant families? We choose the American way—fair, just and humane. Now, many of my Republican colleagues have come to the Floor to suggest that this legislation is about defunding ICE. That’s a stone cold lie. Because we know that in the Republican One Big Ugly Bill, which ripped away Medicaid from 14 million Americans, the largest cut—almost a trillion dollars—to Medicaid in American history, at the same period of time, extremist Republicans in their One Big Ugly Bill enacted a $186 billion cut to nutritional assistance—literally ripped food from the mouths of hungry children, seniors and veterans.
Again he doesn’t want to remove anything just give it better optics. No reform, nothing but giving ice better training on how to assault Americans and get away with it just like the police.
Because of the DNC, including Jeffries, the ICE funding lapsed until the GOP passed a reconciliation budget without them.
Again you keep arguing the republicans are the only issue when Jeffries is part of the reason why they are in power, is currently already working with them and had a hand in ice getting the funding in the first place while you’re only argument on why he’s better is making the republicans ignore him completely
Can you not see how none of that makes at difference as he is actively planning with Republicans to continue screwing the country?
No matter what the case, we still need him to win in November, because even the absolute worst Democrat is better than the best Republican.
I reckon you should expect more than the ‘absolute worst’, though.
His primary ended uncontested, the time for expecting more is over.
Banjo and others still defending the dems like Jeffries and Schumer refuse to accept that

HE WANTS TO REFORM ICE NOT REMOVE IT.
Please do a bit of research before insulting others for lack of knowledge, understanding and common decency
NOT A SINGLE REPUBLICAN WANTS TO REMOVE IT AND WE’RE DISCUSSING HOW JEFFRIES IS BETTER THAN EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN.

It was literally in lapsed funding earlier this year lmfao
That’s not just optics. Some ICE offices were vacant for weeks.
