There were 3 ICE officers involved in the shooting of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. All three served under Biden, and I believe under Obama as well. Every time an establishment Democrat frames the problem as one of "training" they are gaslighting. Hillary was just literally bragging that both Clinton and Obama did more deportations than Trump did in his first term. There has been zero pushback from the Democratic establishment on the idea that more deportations is better. That's what I mean about Democrats making it look legitimate.
Third party strategies can never work in the US. Even if they could, it is far easier to take over an existing party, as a tough as that might be. There are a bunch of reasons this is the case that have been discussed into the ground elsewhere.
The good news on the Newsom front is that it seems extremely unlikely that he will be a serious contender - even with establishment backing. Democratic voters in general have finally started catching up with progressives on seeing the establishment for what it is.
