Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar and nearly 100 of her House colleagues are vowing to defund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) following the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent on Jan. 7.

Funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) — which includes ICE and CBP — expires on Jan. 30. The group of Democrats, members of the left-wing Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC), is pledging to vote against all future funding for immigration enforcement, citing a laundry list of alleged abuses by the agency.

“We cannot and we should not continue to fund agencies that operate with impunity, that escalate violence and that undermine the very freedoms this country claims to uphold,” Omar told reporters Tuesday. “ICE has no place in terrorizing Minneapolis or any American community. Together we will stand united to ensure we put a check on the pattern of violence and lawlessness from this administration.”

Democratic Illinois Rep. Delia Ramirez described ICE agents as “criminals in masks” while supporting her colleagues’ efforts to defund the agency.

You’ll need a majority.  Good luck with that.

I think they spell that with an 'e' not an 'a'.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
