Democrats Plan to Block Funding Bill After Second Minnesota Shooting
The Spin
Democratic narrative
ICE has become a rogue agency terrorizing communities and killing innocent Americans without accountability. After multiple fatal shootings in Minnesota, Democrats must block funding for an agency that operates like secret police, raiding homes and shooting unarmed people. Funding a government that sends paramilitary forces to murder citizens is unconscionable.
Republican narrative
Democrats funded ICE every year since 2003, but suddenly oppose it the moment Trump takes office, exposing pure political opportunism. Blocking DHS funding over manufactured outrage about lawful enforcement operations amounts to sabotaging border security and holding the government hostage. This shutdown strategy reveals Democrats care more about obstructing Trump than protecting Americans.
