They may be on to something, the world war which led to Zefram Cochrane's warp drive and first contact was started in 2026.

The award is meaningless and pathetic.

Dems are not gonna abolish ICE, they love their purpose as much as Republicans.

ICE is $50k, which is only awarded after 5 years of service. They leave that part out of the recruitment ads

Those are not demands, if they were demands they would be demands of the entire system, not just what's going on right now.

Meaningless gestures, they'll head to the voting booths and elect politicians that have no interest in eliminating ICE. In case you don't remember, there were also calls to defund police and defund ice in 2020 and the Democrat response was to increase ice and police funding to the highest levels they have ever received while greatly expanding detention centers across the country.

In typical fashion of people that do not know how to protest, they protest individual cogs in the machine and not the machine itself

Without demands it's not even a protest, it's a limited time echo chamber rally.

They also had no demands. They believe targeting a cog in the machine like Trump instead of the machine is going to be effective for change.

You are struggling so hard to be relevant you resorted to ad hominem argumentum

You don't understand what violence is, isn't not just destruction of property, there is economic violence, which is what led to the civil rights bills, there is psychological violence which led to the end of the draft. There is neglect which would deny access to food and shelter. And of course collective violence.

In December 2012, Dr Meera Sachdeva was sentenced to 20 years in prison and ordered to repay nearly USD 8.2 million for fraud at a former Mississippi cancer centre she ran

Also re-used old needles, leading to a lawsuit by a patient who claimed he contracted HIV.

But would a Harris administration look significantly different than a second Trump administration? Both Biden and Harris have come under fire by the left for perpetuating not only Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric, but many of his same policies.

 

The Biden administration on Friday asked an appeals court to revive a Trump-era rule that lifted remaining Endangered Species Act protections for gray wolves in the US

 

Democratic strategist David Axelrod wrote on social media after President Biden’s Thursday night press conference that his odds of winning the presidential race this fall are “very very slim.”

Axelrod said Biden’s team “has not been very candid” with the president after Biden at the presser said no poll or person is telling him he cannot win in November.
