During the agentsā violent attack on a delivery worker Saturday morning in DC, bystanders repeatedly demanded the agents share their badge numbers. One of themāhis face fully obscured by a black balaklavaāeventually shot back, āDo I have to answer to you?ā
āYou guys are ruining this country. You know that, right?ā one bystander said to the agents at one point during the incident. An agent, ironically clad in a rainbow face mask, replied āLiberals already ruined it.ā

Last week on stage at the Netroots conference in New Orleans, I spoke with Congresswoman Delia Ramirez (D-IL) about ICE: specifically that she believes it should be abolished. Itās a stance thatās considered far left, but after witnessing ICE and other federal agents in DC this week, abolishing ICE should be the baseline Democratic position.
āICE is a terrorist organization,ā Ramirez told me. āIt needs to be defunded and needs to be abolished.ā
Iām glad you asked. Weāre seriously thinking about arming the children. Only semi auto for the kids though and teachers get full auto. Cops will just carry grenade launchers and rockets now, for their safety. That should finally take care of the school shooting problem. We tried arming the cops and putting them in schools, but that just created a soiled underpants problem and didnt save any kids at all.
