Summary

Since Donald Trump’s return to office, ICE and DEA agents have intensified immigration enforcement, conducting door-to-door sweeps in Colorado.

Initially targeting suspected criminals, recent operations now question all residents, regardless of warrants. A Denver apartment complex saw widespread searches, sparking protests and fear among undocumented families.

Activists and attorneys are mobilizing to inform residents of their rights. Schools report growing student anxiety.

Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, confirmed a broad crackdown, declaring, “If you’re in the country illegally, you’re on the table.”

    2017 Democrats: “Trump’s expansion of the ICE is creating a personal police force to do his bidding.”

    2025 Democrats: “The fuck you want me to do about it? I already warned you this would happen.”

          Sure, after all the moderate candidates (some of whom were doing much better than Biden) all decided to mysteriously drop out right before Super Tuesday. What a weird confidence, am I right?

              Super Tuesday was March 3rd so that doesn’t dispute my point. Biden had won one state prior to Super Tuesday, Bernie had won three.

                Sorry I had you confused with another user who was talking about 2024 primary and not 2020…

                Before Super Tuesday 2020, Bernie won 2 states and Biden had won 1 states and also Pete Buttigieg won 1, Biden earned 54 delegates from those and Bernie earned 64 while Pete Buttigieg won 26. Buttigieg and others left the race but Bernie stayed in until April where he started falling behind Biden in big races including Texas, North Carolina, Virginia, etc.

                  Yeah I forgot that Buttigieg got a few more delegates in Iowa. After all the moderates dropped out, Bernie definitely lost momentum and his campaign really should have planned for that kind of move. Warren also staying in the race despite a highly lackluster performance sure didn’t help.

                  Oh, what could have been.
