House Republicans have voted down an effort to block immigration enforcers from using federal resources to detain or deport U.S. citizens.

During a House Judiciary Committee meeting on Wednesday, Democrats tabled amendments to a sweeping budget bill that President Donald Trump has dubbed "one big, beautiful bill."

One amendment introduced by Representative Pramila Jayapal, the Democrat from Washington state, sought to make clear Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) cannot detain or deport U.S. citizens under any circumstances. GOP lawmakers killed that amendment.

No one is really safe.

Of course they did

I think in retrospect the worst thing Obama did was not disbanding ICE. If (and that's a very bold if) we get another dem admin that needs to be a fucking priority. It's a fucking Gestapo.

Can we just post the real constitution somewhere?

"Republicans are allowed to do anything they want, to anyone, at any time they like, for as often as they like and to any extreme, whenever they want, for any reason or no reason. Democrats aren't allowed to do anything, ever. Rights are only for God-fearing white folk who vote correctly. Nana nana boo boo."

But remember, the GOP totally weren't fascists before Trump and they'll totally go right back to not being fascists after he's out of office.

Basically, if it wasn't clear in Biden's presidency it's blindingly obvious now

Biden like most democrats lived in this fantasy world where if they did nothing to stop Republicans, eventually the GOP would see the error of their ways and behave on their own.

It has worked a grand totally of zero times. But Im pretty sure it will work any day now
