This scenario is exactly why I don't want my 80-yr old Mom to go to her community center if deportations start in Miami. At least not until I'm 100% sure ICE won't go to a place like that. She's naturalized but barely speaks English. All it would take is an agent having a bad day.

Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash. Pam Bondi knew. Kash Patel knew. Emil Bove knew. And they made the investigation go away. A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

The thing Democrats don't want to face is that Trump isn't their only problem, and they aren't defeating his regime without addressing at least some of the others. The United States has a lot of problems that desperately need solving, and we saw Biden, those problems don't go away with Trump 2/🧵

This is not a hypothetical! Anti-abortion folks have literal blood on their hands, blood covering their entire bodies at this point with the number of people their policies and ideology have killed directly.

Amongst the many, many other faults and follies of the party, perhaps the single most dangerous problem with the Democratic Party today is their incessant habit of reinforcing the idea that there is absolutely *no* principle that matters, no policy that is sacrosanct that they will stand behind.

The idea of running anti-abortion Democrats is sickening to me. That means killing women! That is what that means!

I think the reason for this is pretty straightforward: the largest cohort of cross-pressured swing voters in the United States are people who are cross-pressured because they are secular but racist

People really need to reckon with why people will vote for pro-choice referendums and pro-life candidates at the same time. This isn’t an argument for a pro-life candidate but it is a suggestion that voting the referendums don’t refute the point.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent once agreed to occupy two different houses as his "principal residence" at the same time, mortgage docs show — the same kind of contradictory pledges Trump has been using to try to oust Fed Governor Lisa Cook (there's no evidence Cook actually did that).

Messaging is about telling people about your values and why they are important and persuading them to understand and fight for those values. You don't have a "messaging problem" if you don't even have values on which you stand.

Every “centrist” or beltway brained pundit that suggests giving up some of your rights or just one or two small minority groups to get those critical Mitt Romney Republicans sounds stupider/more paid off than the last one.

I genuinely cannot believe that Ezra Klein said we should run pro-life candidates in Kansas, Ohio, and Missouri; three states that recently held abortion referendums where the pro-choice side won!

What this means in practice, however is that the people responsible for the defeat, the people with the most power and influence, will absolve themselves just in time to lose again. This is exacerbated by the fact that many of the same people have concluded that fighting fascism is unpopular.

Right? I saw someone online say, "That was ruled a suicide." Yeah sure, a black man in Mississippi hanging from a tree on a college campus, the cops are saying that's a suicide. Totally not sus right?

Re pre: RT, we call people who bargain with fascists appeasers / collaborators. What we dont do is fuck with collaborators, and appeasement is rightly remembered by poli sci and history as the worst least effective diplomatic strategy of the 20th century

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion. Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

Klein is an op. Delete him from your media.
