After a deadly ICE shooting in Minneapolis, Democratic strategists are urging caution over calls to abolish ICE. But what does it say about our politics when the phrase itself sparks more debate than the violence that provoked it?
In this video, I break down the centrist logic behind the backlash to “Abolish ICE,” the recent polling that complicates that narrative, and the deeper failure of imagination plaguing a political class more afraid of bad optics than bad policy.
This isn’t just about slogans. It’s about whether we can name injustice when we see it, and whether a coalition that depends on marginalized voters is willing to center their voices, or just manage their rage.
