At this point, I’m convinced that having too much money will make you stupid. At that point, you have no real consequences for your actions and you forget how to make good decisions.

From coast to coast, city streets to small town squares, you showed up. And it mattered.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.
They are in charge.

You know when things were pretty quiet and peaceful in L.A.? Before ICE started arresting residents who were bothering no one and going to their jobs. And before DHS and National Guard troops showed up and made the situation worse.
Of course Trump and Stephen Miller want the situation to get worse.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

ICE tear gassed people who were stuck in their vehicles because ICE blocked the intersection.
They were not even protesters. They were just stuck there due to ICE blocking them. As the helpless car passengers watched, ICE, unprovoked, began firing gas canisters upon the cars.

Another big win for team "Elon Musk Thinks Deeply About The Future." Not only is he so lacking in perspective that he burned his lifeboat and last source of meme stock vibes, he doesn't have anyone else around him to gently remind him of the bigger picture. Rats gonna abandon this ship soon.

Constituent: Trump and his cabinet in addition to being totally unqualified and inept are breaking laws by ignoring federal judge's orders. When are you going to do the responsibility you are elected for by holding the executive branch accountable up to and including impeachment?

As a biologist, I have to weigh in on #TheLastofUs
Currently, there are no fungal vaccines. It would be difficult to make one (and EXPENSIVE). In the world of TLOU, it would be even more difficult to create a vaccine. One guy wouldn't be able to do it, especially with reduced resources.

There's a weird tone to this article - like it's trying to knock Pete down a peg, even though his town hall was amazing.
Also, this article makes it sound like Pete only appealed to college grads in 2020 - which is not true. In Iowa, he performed equally well with people without a college degree.
