Calling it now:
This is a bid from the GOP to convince Dems to fund DHS and stop the shutdown from happening.
And the dumb ass Dems might actually take the bait and pretend its a victory
My understanding is that a shutdown would not stop ICE. They would not be part of that.
The Dems have made a list of demands about ICE, the DHS and Border Patrol, that ultimately amount to not even a wrist slap.
The GOP is refusing to move an inch on it.
The Dems are now threatening a shutdown if their demands aren't met.
Now the Dems are colossal pussies, so they'll likely capitulate again. That being said, Trump and the rest of the fascists know they took the bigger reputation L with the last shutdown, and they're afraid of another.
That’s exactly what they are going to fucking do.
Might? It's almost a certainty at this point 😮💨
This lets the complicit dems save face while still capitulating like they want.
