    Representatives “punched” and “body-slammed” the ICE agents, she added.

    LMAO. Super soldier democratic elected officials, defeating heavily militarized police units using unarmed combat. I believe it!

    As usual, Republicans accuse Democrats of being much cooler than they really are.

    I really fucking hate seeing this woman’s face. It’s like if you took every over-surgeried instagram MLM/“wellness” influencer and put them all into one face.

    ICE Barbie, DOJ Barbie, and Dumb Communication Barbie is the worst lineup of Barbies ever. Then to top it all off Hegseth is Ken.

      I take issue with this comment, specifically just one part. You are sullying the good name of whores worldwide.
      Puppy Killer doesn’t deserve to lick the shit covered boots of whores, let alone be compared to them.

    Oh oh. Be careful she doesn’t send you to El Salvador or worse yet, the gravel pit.

    So is referring to a woman as “Barbie” not sexist if she works for Trump, or is it still sexist but it’s ok to be sexist towards women who work for Trump?

    (I’d ban Daily Beast links if I were in charge.)

      I think the whole ‘Barbie’ thing is a reference to how the women in Trump’s orbit all have the same over-manufactured aesthetic.

      Is Barbie inherently sexist? I think here it’s implying that she’s just there to be the good-looking face of corruption. She is being used as a toy. Is calling out the sexism by referring to her as ICE Barbie sexist, or is using her as an ICE Barbie sexist?

      Edit: I think the answer can be and is both. I don’t support the use of ad hominem attacks. It just makes your argument easier to dismiss and is completely unnecessary when you have so many easy legitimate arguments to be made against this administration. However, I do think the bigger issue is the administration using her compared to the crass comment.

        Yes, it’s an obvious reference to her looks. Lefty internet is not immune to sexism. It’s easy to spot every time MTG or Lauren Bobert make the news. In 2016 sexism in some left spaces wasn’t just allowed, it was enforced.

      Calling someone “Barbie” is not sexist at all as long as the person being called it is actually made of plastic, such as in this case.
