Men's teams think they can appeal to everyone so they're afraid to offend anyone.
Women's teams inherently know this is false.
Why is ICE being allowed to keep these people's possessions once they are released? What justification is being given for keeping their belongings? What process exists for people to retrieve their belongings? What process is ICE following to document ownership of these belongings?

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.
Backing Kristi Noemβs impeachment is the bare minimum.
Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.
ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.
