The Democrat Party is eating itself alive as progressive extremists seize on a Minnesota ICE-involved shooting to resurrect their failed "defund the police" playbook – this time targeting the very agents working to implement President Trump's America First immigration agenda.
Congressional sources confirm that Squad members and their socialist allies are pushing hard for slashing ICE appropriations, putting moderate Democrats in an impossible position just as Trump's mass deportation operation gains momentum across the country.
While details of the Minnesota incident remain under investigation, radical lawmakers wasted no time exploiting the situation to advance their open-borders agenda. The same progressives who cheered sanctuary cities and opposed border security are now demanding Americans be left defenseless against the criminal alien invasion they helped create.
Leadership Scrambles as Base Revolts
Democratic leadership finds itself caught between their rabid progressive base – still drunk on anti-police rhetoric – and the harsh reality that Americans overwhelmingly support Trump's immigration crackdown. Moderate Democrats, already shell-shocked from their 2024 electoral massacre, know that embracing ICE defunding would be political suicide in their swing districts.
"These progressives learned nothing from getting crushed in November," one Democratic aide told sources. "They're still pushing the same failed policies that cost us working-class voters."
This internal warfare couldn't come at a worse time for Democrats, as Trump's deportation machine is delivering exactly what he promised voters. Every day brings new stories of criminal aliens being removed from American communities, vindicating the President's tough stance that Democrats spent four years sabotaging.
Americans See Through the Charade
Patriots across the country recognize this manufactured controversy for what it really is: another desperate attempt by the radical left to hamstring law enforcement and keep America's borders wide open. The same Democrats who remained silent during four years of Biden's border catastrophe now suddenly care about "accountability" when Trump's ICE is actually doing its job.
Will moderate Democrats finally grow a spine and reject their party's anti-American extremists, or will they once again bow to the Squad's radical demands? Either way, this civil war shows a party completely out of touch with the American people who decisively chose Trump's vision of secure borders and law and order.
