National Strike Called for Jan 23: ICE out of Minn

[kyzr]

That is just comical. Keystone would have created a handful of permanent jobs. And it would caused gas prices to go up, especially in the MidWest. That pipeline was specifically for moving sludge from Canada to refineries in the Gulf to produce diesel to EXPORT.

Fuel is global dumbass. The "law of supply and demand" is a "law" of economics. That average 600,000 bbls a day would have eventually lowered fuel prices, not raised them.

ANWR, that one really gets me. Right before Trump left office he auctioned off a large block of leases in ANWR. It was kind of a big deal, and he pulled a fast one on Congress. Hell, none of the big players bothered to show up, and while most of the leases didn't even draw a bid, the ones that did sell went for fifteen cents on the dollar anticipated value.

ANWR will be developed.

War on Energy. That one really gets me. If we are having a war on Energy I got to tell you something, they kicking our ass. If you are in the energy sector, times are good. And gas powered cars? Seriously?

Should ICE be abolished altogether?

Should ICE be abolished altogether?

Most ICE agents should be abolished. Im agnostic as to whether the duties should be held with a flushed out and replaced group of ICE agents or moved to a new organization entirely.

Why don't you be more clear about exactly what you want? Are you ashamed of your position?

What would this 'new agency' do differently than what is currently being done? Let's hear the specifics.

Should illegal immigrants be arrested and deported back to their original country?

 

[SurferH2O]

This will help us all know who to fire. I encourage it.

It's too cold for these ******* idiots to protest outside, so they are coming into churches and businesses and ******* up normal citizens lives, because they have no life.



Crazy libs in Edina, Minnesota, went and bought tons of salt just to return it to protest ICE.Annoying random workers to stick it to the man
Does anyone notice something about those protestors? What they all have in common.

Older, Single, White women need mental healthcare counseling.

 

[Old Rocks]

If I weren’t retired already, I’d absolutely go to work.

In fact, maybe I’ll get me a job just for that date.

OK, **** you. You are the supporter of a child rapist and Russian imperialism. The Greenland issue is simply Trump responding to Putin's orders to destroy NATO.

I was clear. It's the people that are the problem. The people should be expelled from ICE. Whether ICE has such a damaged reputation it is replaced or not could be up for debate. I would for sure dismantle homeland security and return all functions back to the operating organization they were in pre 9/11.

I'm actually surprised leftists have jobs to walk off from.

Another liar and supporter of a child rapist. ICE goes into churches and grabs people, often US Citizens.

Hey *****, this old lib worked as a millwright until I was 76 years old. The kind of job that people like you would not even be capable of. And I probably worked more 60 hour weeks than 40 hour weeks.

Why would you remove the people? What would you change about how the organization operates? Or are you only spouting meaningless platitudes?

Should illegal immigrants be arrested and deported back to their original country?

It's an easy yes/no question.

Your tiny little strike won't move the needle

You support more child rape than any right-wing poster by a mile. The rapists ICE has not been able to arrest because of Leftists like you, who are still harming children. The border policy you supported under Biden saw thousands of children raped and murdered. Finally, Epstein gave 90% of his donations to Democrats and even advised Democratic members of Congress on their actions while in session.

You have no high horse, you're a Child Rapist supporter, and for you to project your support on others is par for the course, making you a Democrat. Loser.

He was probably perfectly fine with Biden showering with his preteen daughter

That screams volumes

 

[Papageorgio]

and who the hell is that helping as compared to the hurt put on the businesses...

No one, it is just a really stupid idea and will hurt for one day but the day before and the day after it will be business as usual and the only ones that say the noticed a difference are those that stayed home but the other 99.9% that will go about business as usual won’t see a difference, but at least those taking off will lose pay or a vacation day, that will show us all.

I can’t believe people fall for this stupid stuff.

Ok, that was funny!

 

[Dirk the Daring]

And you wonder why the working class share of income and wealth has plummeted to all time lows. They remain the lone organizing unit in this country capable of providing resistance to tyranny.

Because they have to donate a portion of their salary every month to the outdated concept known as 'unions?'
