74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting it, according to YouGov polling from last month. Weak calls for "reform" are coming from *elected* Democrats like Chuck, not the average Democratic voter.

At one point I created a TiKTok account for my craft business bc it seemed like that was where, you know, all the people had gone, but I never really took to it (I hate video) and so rarely used it. This was a good reminder to just delete the account.
