So I'm not sure what else Democrats can do.

If Democrats go and cave on the ICE stuff, on CBP, and just allow this funding bill to go through,

Republicans are going to know just like the first shutdown, just wait 50 days, wait 60 days, and then they'll cave every single time.

So it's a very, they're stuck between a rock and a hard place.

I feel for those flying, I feel more for the TSA agents who are right now working without pay.

To me, I would rather collectively come together and like do a massive donation drive for TSA agents right now, right?

Like that's what I would rather do for my position rather than just try to put pressure on the Democrats to reopen DHS because I get why they've shut it down.

But I also think this is, again, a funding battle that should have never happened when it did.

The fact that they allow the two-week extension

They lost a lot of leverage back in January.

They should have forced a shutdown of DHS and every other agency, force a bigger government shutdown, have more leverage here.

They didn't do that.

So I don't know.

Yeah, I think if they commit to that, but also like the White House's letter, I don't know if you saw, it was like, we're not going to deport U.S.

citizens.

And I'm like, OK, well, you can't already deport U.S.

citizens.

Like, why are we talking about things that it's already codified into law?

So, yeah, I do think the judicial warrant issue, if they cave on it, I think you'll get a funding deal pass.

I did.
