Saying you failed and apologizing now is worthless.
Primary this guy and the other six that voted for this. None of these guys are people that we should be tolerating in the Democratic party with this kind of morality, callousness for human life, and such short sighted vision.
The real failure is your inability to see that coming.
Didn’t ICE already killed a bunch of people before the Minnesota ones?
According to this Guardian article, 25 people died in ICE custody in 2025. 7 people died in December alone. Was he not aware of these deaths when he voted to give them more money? What a fucking monster.
He’s trying to save face, he would gladly support increases to ice funding once Democrats become the majority party again. And we all have faith that Chuck Schumer is going to find just enough votes in the Senate to ensure that it passes.
That exact same vote were to come up and Democrats were the majority party. It would have passed with nearly full Democrat support. They cannot be trusted
Jeffries didn’t “whip” the bill, allowing moderates and front-line Democrats to vote their conscience, including Henry Cuellar (Texas), Vicente Gonzalez (Texas), Laura Gillen (N.Y.), Jared Golden (Maine), Marie Glusenkamp Perez (Wash.), Don Davis (N.C.), and Tom Suozzi (N.Y.).
Jeffries also had a part in it.
Still “vote blue no matter who”? Why not primary instead?
Both things can be the reasonable response.
What a yutz. His constituents deserve better.
These politicians don’t really have good hindsight, do they? They just do shit, then after the fact, turn around and go apologizing.
He’s apologizing because the scale of the protests is giving them cold feet that they could be subject to consequences, but make no mistake… The moment things let up or cool off, the conscience they’ve found will immediately evaporate.
Resign, failure.
Suozzi, a moderate who co-chairs the House Problem Solvers Caucus, initially said last week he opposed shutting down the government because ICE would nonetheless continue to function due to an infusion of billions of dollars to the agency from President Donald Trump’s so-called Big Beautiful Bill. He also noted shutting down DHS would affect other agencies, like FEMA and the Coast Guard.
He’s got a point, BBB gave ICE 75 billion they can spend however they like in the next decade. They can operate off that for years at current spending levels.
And to Souzzi’s credit, he voted against the BBB.
Not passing a budget isn’t enough, we need to claw that 75 billion back.
Or, hear me out, stop negotiating with terrorists.
How do you propose we get 75 billion back that Suozzi voted against giving in the first place then?
And why do you think defending the few parts of the government that still works would have any effect on the bad parts that are already funded?
Like, I get your intent and I agree with it. But for fucks sake we need actual plausible plans that have a chance to work and aren’t guaranteed to cause even more damage if implemented.
It’s perfectly normal to be pissed, but it doesn’t help anyone if we stop thinking logically. We can be pissed and still act logically, even I manage it most of time.
How do you propose we get 75 billion back that Suozzi voted against giving in the first place then?
We don’t. It’s gone.
Asking fascists nicely to stop putting jackboots on necks, pretty please, doesn’t work. Making deals with them doesn’t work; they will always violate the terms of any deal.
They have to be made to stop.
They have to be made to stop.
By defunding them…
Like, I understand you’re trying to agree with me, but you clearly just don’t understand this
Im not, and it’s too late for defunding. They already have all the resources they need.
Unless his plan is to commit Seppuku, he can fuck the fuck off.
Admitting and apologizing is a mild start, but accepting accountability by resigning is what real accountability and remorse would look like for an American politician.
An honorable Seppuku would also be acceptable and bring back some semblance of honor, as is tradition. We’ll need someone skilled to volunteer to be his second on that.
for such dishonor, he gets no second
Fuck off. This is an example of you knew what you were doing and were hoping to not get caught.
Get primaried, you PoS
"Oh, no, I failed…
…anyways. "
I, a full-time gamer, was able to see and hear what ICE was up to. A representative whose job and connections should allow them to be fully informed, has little excuse for not understanding what they voted for.
If you are being honest Suozzi, that means you stink at your job. Give it to someone who doesn’t suck. 🤦
He failed at not getting outted. He’s only sorry cause his name is now on a list of Dems to replace.
"I’m so sorry I’m being held accountable"😭
Just another politician doing the wrong thing and then acting like they didn’t understand it later. Because there aren’t any consequences.
