8. Of course they are. Bipartisanship!

I doubt the list is limited to those Senators started above. How many Democratic Senators voted to pass the Republican's last budget extension to avert shutdown, against the wishes of those trying to end the ICE gestapo? Now they're not trying to end ICE, or do what really needs to happen and end DHS, but talking in MODERATE ways to limit ICE. As if.

All the while. there's no danger of ICE running out of funding, so no Democrats are going to get in TROUBLE with their "moderate" supporters, either, thanks to Trumps Big Beautiful Budget.

As presently constituted, this party stands for everything - so it stands for nothing. Even when they have the Executive and Legislative branches of government, they are paralyzed - as we saw during the Biden administration. Moreover, Democratic Party voters keep re-electing these people. So bed made, lie in it.
