It wouldn't be okay if Trump and ICE were doing this shit to "criminals" either.

You don't lose your humanity because you did something that society decided was proscribed, particularly given that a majority of those things are entirely arbitrary. Most crimes are poverty driven, not violent.

It’s as if what political scientists researching democratic parties trying to copy and adapt right-wing policies have said for years is true - it doesn’t work.
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.

We're primarying John Fetterman.

Last week, Fetterman again sold out working Pennsylvanians. He was the deciding vote for a Republican budget bill that will strip healthcare from over 400,000 Pennsylvanians.

We deserve real working class leadership in the Senate, not a Trump-enabling Democrat.

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

Trump shamelessly lies: "Go to Walmart and other companies, and in every case it's about 25% that a Thanksgiving meal and surroundings are 25% lower. That's big fact."
