“Terrorist”: How ICE Weaponized 9/11’s Scarlet Letter

The conversation continues as Jordan Uhl and Spencer Neff discuss the recent events with ICE, CBP, and their actions.

Jordan Uhl: "Spencer, you mentioned that this is not something that can be reformed. It's a fundamental change in the way these agencies operate. What do you think is the best course of action to stop this?"

Spencer Neff: "Well, Jordan, I think we're at a point where we need to organize and build power amongst like-minded people in our area to produce a function. We can't rely on our politicians to do this on their own. We need to create a critical mass of opposition that makes it clear that this is not acceptable."

Jordan Uhl: "That's a great point, Spencer. And I think you're right that we need to start building towards abolishing ICE and CBP altogether. But how do we do that? Do we need to start a national movement?"

Spencer Neff: "I think that's exactly what we need to do. We need to build a national movement that demands an end to these agencies' activities. And we need to make it clear that this is not just about immigration, but about the erosion of our democratic values and the threat to our civil liberties."

Jordan Uhl: "That's a great message, Spencer. But how do we get people to listen? How do we get them to understand the gravity of what's happening?"

Spencer Neff: "I think that's where social media comes in. We need to use social media to spread the word about what's happening with ICE and CBP, and to build a national movement around abolishing these agencies. And we need to make it clear that this is not just a partisan issue, but an issue of democracy itself."

Jordan Uhl: "I agree, Spencer. Social media can be a powerful tool in building opposition to these agencies. But what about the role of the press? How do you think we should cover this story?"

Spencer Neff: "I think we need to take a more aggressive approach to covering this story, Jordan. We need to hold ICE and CBP accountable for their actions, and we need to make it clear that these agencies are not above the law. We need to use our reporting to expose the truth about what's happening, and to build public awareness of the issue."

Jordan Uhl: "That's a great approach, Spencer. And I think you're right that we need to start taking a more critical stance towards ICE and CBP. But what about the role of the Democratic Party? How do we hold them accountable for their actions?"

Spencer Neff: "I think that's a tough one, Jordan. The Democratic Party has historically been more accommodationist when it comes to issues like immigration reform. But I think we need to start pushing them harder on this issue. We need to make it clear that abolishing ICE and CBP is not just a radical idea, but a necessary step towards restoring democracy in our country."

Jordan Uhl: "I agree, Spencer. It's time for us to take a more radical approach to solving this problem. And I think you're right that we need to start building towards abolishing ICE and CBP altogether. But it won't be easy, Jordan. It's going to take a lot of hard work and dedication from all of us."

Spencer Neff: "I couldn't agree more, Jordan. But I'm confident that together, we can make a difference. We just need to keep pushing forward, and never give up on our values."
 
I think Spencer's point about building power amongst like-minded people is super valid 🤝. We can't rely on politicians to do this for us, but if we organize ourselves, we can create a critical mass of opposition that demands change 📢. Social media can be a powerful tool in spreading awareness and building public support, but we also need to hold the press accountable for covering this story truthfully 📰. And I think Spencer's idea about taking a more radical approach to solving this problem is kinda necessary... we can't just keep playing by the rules if it leads to the erosion of our democratic values 🤯.
 
🚨ICE & CBP are basically the US's own Gestapo 🤖! They're out of control and it's time for us to take action against them! 🌪️ We can't rely on politicians or the press to stop them, we need to do it ourselves. Social media is key here, let's get the word out and build a national movement to abolish these agencies once and for all! 💥 And yes, Spencer's right about taking a more aggressive approach to reporting - ICE & CBP need to be held accountable for their human rights abuses. 🤬
 
🤔 I think Spencer's idea of building power amongst like-minded people is a good start. If everyone starts talking about abolishing ICE and CBP, it'll create a critical mass that politicians can't ignore 🗣️. We need to use social media to spread the word, but also make sure we're not just shouting into the void – we need to engage with others who share our values and build coalitions 💬. And yeah, taking on the press is key too – they have a responsibility to report the truth about what's happening in ICE and CBP's hands 📰. But I'm not convinced that simply abolishing these agencies will solve everything – we need to think about how we're going to create new systems and institutions that protect people's rights and keep our country safe 🤝
 
ICE and CBP are getting outta control 🚫👮‍♂️. They're like the ultimate buzzkill, always trying to ruin people's lives for no good reason. I mean, what's next? Them showing up at your doorstep uninvited? 😳 Back in my day, we didn't have all these agencies breathing down our necks, making us feel like we're not even American anymore 🤦‍♂️.

I think Spencer Neff is right on the money when he says we need to organize and build power amongst like-minded people. We need to get loud, get proud, and get our voices heard 💥! And yeah, social media can be a powerful tool, but it's not just about spreading the word – it's about creating a movement 🌟.

And let's be real, the press needs to step up their game too 📰. We need more investigative reporting, less fluff pieces, and some real accountability from our politicians 👊. I mean, it's time for them to stop playing both sides against each other and start standing up for what's right 💪.

It's not gonna be easy, but if we want to create change, we gotta be willing to get a little messy 😬. And yeah, that means confronting the uncomfortable truths about our own country 🤔. But hey, at least we'll know the truth, right? ✊
 
🤦‍♂️ i feel like no one is talking about the real issue here... what's going on with the asylum seekers? they're still getting detained and deported, while all this discussion is about abolishing ICE. it seems to me that we need a more nuanced approach, one that actually puts people's lives first rather than just spouting ideological slogans 😒
 
man this ICE/CBP stuff is so messed up 🤯 like what's next are they gonna start rounding up people for not using the right hashtag on Twitter? 😂 no seriously though we need to take a stand and organize a movement that actually has some teeth behind it. I'm all for building power amongst like-minded people, but we can't just rely on social media to do the heavy lifting 📱💻 we need to use our voices and our actions to demand real change. and yeah let's be real Spencer is right about the Democratic Party being accommodationist on this issue they've been playing it too safe for too long 😒 it's time for them to step up their game.
 
🤔 these guys are super right about the government not being able to reform ICE & CBP on their own... we need to build a movement & use social media to spread the word 📢💻. I think they're also hitting it on the head with saying we gotta hold the press accountable for covering this story properly too, can't just rely on them reporting it without putting some pressure on 😅.
 
😒 gotta say, these agancies are like, super outta control right now 🤯. They're basically breaking the law left and right, and nobody's holding 'em accountable 🚫. I mean, what's next? 🤔 Are we gonna let them just do whatever they want without any pushback? 🙅‍♂️ That's not how our country is supposed to work, you know? We need to start organizing and taking action if we wanna make some real change 💪. It won't be easy, but I'm all for it 😊. We gotta stand up for what's right and fight for our rights as citizens 🗣️.
 
ICE & CBP are literally the WORST 🤯! They're always attacking marginalized communities & immigrant families. The government should be doing more to protect people's rights & freedoms, not just going after those who are most vulnerable 🤝. We need a total overhaul of these agencies & we need it NOW 💥! The Democratic Party needs to step up their game too - they can't just keep playing both sides against each other 🔄. We need real change, not just empty promises 💬.
 
😕 I'm getting so tired of seeing the US government's treatment of migrants being portrayed as "tough" and "lawful". It's time for us to wake up and realize that these agencies are more interested in protecting corporate interests than human lives. 🤦‍♀️ The way they're handling asylum seekers is like something out of a bad sci-fi movie - separating families, detaining people indefinitely... it's just plain wrong.

We need to build a movement that says NO to this kind of oppression and YES to compassion, empathy, and justice for all. Social media can be a powerful tool, but we also need to support local organizations on the ground who are fighting against these agencies every day. We can't rely on politicians or the press to fix this problem - it's time for us to take matters into our own hands 🚫💪.

I remember when I was younger and protests used to be about bringing people together, not tearing them apart. It's time to rediscover that spirit of community and solidarity. We can do better than this, America! 💕
 
ICE and CBP are getting outta hand 🚨. They're eroding our democracy and threatening our civil liberties. We need to build a national movement to abolish these agencies once and for all. Social media is key, let's use it to spread the word and get people on board 💻. But we also need to hold the press accountable for covering this story and making ICE and CBP answerable for their actions 📰. The Democratic Party needs to step up too, they've been accommodating these agencies for too long. It's time for radical change, let's not be afraid to push boundaries 👊
 
🤔 I was saying earlier how the government's handling of immigration is a perfect example of a systemic problem that needs to be addressed from the ground up 🌎. Spencer Neff is right, we can't rely on politicians to fix this issue on their own 👊. It's going to take a grassroots movement to create real change 💪. And let's not forget about the role of social media in spreading awareness and mobilizing people around this issue 📱. We need to use it to expose the truth about ICE and CBP's actions, and build public support for abolishing these agencies 🔍. It's time for us to take a stand and demand better from our leaders 💬.
 
🤔 Social media is just making things worse 📱, you know? Everyone's so busy scrolling through their feeds they're not even paying attention to what's really going on. And don't even get me started on the "awareness" movement... it's all just a bunch of superficial activism 🌎. We need real change, not just some feel-good hashtags. And what's with the press? They're more interested in perpetuating the status quo than actually holding anyone accountable 📰. We need to be critical of everything, not just give it a pass because it's "partisan" or "politically correct". It's time to think outside the box and challenge some of these assumptions... maybe then we'll start to make some real progress 💡.
 
ICE is just gonna keep getting worse 🤦‍♂️. They're already doing so much damage and nobody's really calling them out for it. I don't think building power amongst like-minded people is gonna be enough to stop them. We need something more concrete, like a mass protest or something. Social media can only take you so far 📱. And what about when the police start targeting activists? We need to have some real plans in place for that 💥.
 
😬 they're saying we gotta build a national movement to stop ice & cbp from doing their thing... like, people need to wake up and understand that these agencies are taking away our civil liberties 🤯. social media can be a powerful tool for this, but we also need the press to hold them accountable 💼. it's not just about immigration anymore, it's about democracy itself 💥. i think it's time for us to take a more radical approach and abolish these agencies altogether 👊.
 
🤝 Social media is literally changing the game when it comes to mobilizing people around a cause! The way Spencer Neff talks about using social media to spread the word and build a national movement makes total sense 📱💻. And I think that's what we need more of - people being aware of what's happening with ICE and CBP, and being empowered to take action 💪. We can't rely on politicians or the press to save us; it's up to us to create a groundswell of opposition 🌊. And Spencer is right, it starts with creating critical mass of like-minded people in our communities who are willing to take a stand and fight for change 💥.
 
🤔 I gotta say, Spencer's got a point about building power amongst like-minded people in their area... but isn't it already happening? We're seeing these movements pop up all over the country, from coast to coast 🗺️. It's time to take it to the next level and make some real noise on social media, I mean, who needs mainstream press when you've got TikTok 🤣?!
 
Wow 😮 people are getting really organized about ICE and CBP now... I think Spencer is onto something with building a critical mass of opposition 🤝 it's not gonna be easy but if we make it clear that this is about democracy itself 💯, maybe we can actually create some change 🔄
