pet peeve of mine that you see in all sorts of contexts: posing questions that "need to be answered" that have been answered many times. this just mires the debate in an endless loop where one side has to argue and the other just asks the same questions over and over.
Calls for expanding #SCOTUS are entirely (and increasingly) understandable. But as today's "One First" explains, there are at least four difficult questions that those who support expansion should have to answer—especially as compared to other possible reforms: www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-257-...

"We're tired of being called racist for being super fucking racist" is, in fact, an accurate representation of conservative thinking. They want all their ugly instincts & prejudices but they don't want any social disapprobation for them.
JD Vance: "We were tired of being called racists for noticing that our country was becoming dirtier and poorer"

We can win in places that no one expects.
Striking: Internal polling from the Dem-aligned House Majority PAC finds strong dislike of Trump vastly outweighs strongly favorable sentiments toward him even in red-state House districts he won. This intensity gap is a key factor in expanding the map for Dems: newrepublic.com/article/2151...

www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/g... Looks like there is fraud in Florida. Send in a ridiculous amount of soldiers into the streets to beat up, harass, kidnap and murder random people who look like these fraudsters.

This should be a lightbulb moment for Democrats: You are free to run on this platform because Republicans are going to accuse you of it whether you do or not!
Trump: "The Democrats are gonna terminate the filibuster as soon as they have a chance and then they're gonna approve DC and Puerto Rico as states. They get 4 more senators, 12 more congressmen, like 40 electoral votes ... you don't want to see me cry."

A federal agent fired a pepper ball launcher from the vehicle he was driving, striking a protester in the stomach. This was outside the ICE detention facility in Broadview this afternoon. 📸 Evan Stone www.instagram.com/evan_stone_p...
Happy 4th of July from the ICE facility in Broadview, IL, where ~2 hrs ago a Fed fired pepper balls from inside his blacked out SUV, striking an older protester in the torso. Others rendered aid, quickly wiping the irritants off them and getting them a fresh shirt before taking them to the hospital.

This is classic Trump. Gets an idea, rushes into it w/o adequately preparing, not giving any thought to potential problems or consequenses. This is how America landed in a stupid stupid, unnecessary, disastrous war of choice! He's a 3yo manchild who never ever thinks beyond immediate gratification.

It's not hyperbole in the least to say Musk purchased a six-month shadow presidency for $280 million and used the power of that shadow presidency to 1. Steal the government’s data, 2. Permanently damage the state’s ability to regulate his businesses, and 3, kill non-white people.
Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

"Reality TV star Sean Duffy thought it was a good idea to have only a single Air Traffic Controller in the tower at one of the busiest airports in the world. This is the tragic result when Trump picks unqualified cronies for big roles, deadly crashes and chaos in our airports." is how I'd draw it up
