Jeffries Won't Whip Vote Against ICE Funding

106. But I don't think you improve your chances of winning control of congress by not fighting such an important issue

This is just my opinion, but I think Jeffries and some of the other hesitant Dems are miscalculating how many are enraged by what ICE is doing, including Independents and some on the right. They aren't reading the room.

Especially with the ICE whistleblower leaked a memo where ICE is telling their agents to break into homes without a warrant. People on all ends of the political spectrum are enraged.

This is exactly the political miscalculation that helped the Nazi Party gain power. There is a great documentary, "The Rise of the Nazi Party," and it parallels the same sort of hesitancy by the majority party (at the time) to take strong action against the atrocities the Nazi brownshirts were engaging in. They lost their majority.
