Any word from the invertebrates on here who spent yesterday belittling anyone who criticized Senate democrats’ latest surrender?

Federal agents abduct two teenagers (15 & 16) from a doctor's appointment
At one point, it appears an agent tases one of the children

Or more broadly, telling your most committed constituents that they are an anchor, a liability, a problem for you -- that, by caring about anything more than what a non-college middle-PA swing voter cares about, they are fucking everything up for you.
That's the constant message.

I am just a simple small-town lawyer but I really can’t think of a more toxic and self-defeating political strategy than telling your constituents the things they care about are “a distraction.”

When you go to law school they just repeatedly club you in the head until you start saying stuff like this at which point they hand you a diploma.
they have literally impeached him twice already. They currently have zero power to do anything to impeach him again beyond performative measures that will go nowhere. All indications are that they likely will impeach him again in 2027 if, but only if, they win the midterms.

It’s been said to death but it really is remarkable the degree to which all of elite society is just the most vulgar degenerates alive. Rich families, ivy league education, endless donor welfare, and yet you can’t even love your own child.

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

Periodic reminder that this guy LOST his election in Minnesota and he's doing more for those constituents than the Mayor and the Governor combined
"If you want to investigate fraud, bring an accountant,” Stancil, a Democratic activist and education policy adviser told me as we drove around ... The ICE agents in Minnesota don’t look like accountants. They look like soldiers. And you don’t bring soldiers unless you want to fight a war."
Richard Warnica: I spent the week in Minnesota. The only thing I’m sure of now is that more people are going to die
As confrontations between ICE and protestors and activists grow more common, the tension only rises.

Thought @nytpitchbot.bsky.social had outdone itself, but no, it’s real: NYTimes sent four reporters to a town 150 miles from Minneapolis to interview a group of folks at the Ye Olde Pickle Factory bar while they drink beer at 10am and watch The Price Is Right and share deep political thoughts.

that's weird because i thought possibly doing remote schooling for a couple of months too long as thousands died was the biggest and most important policy scandal in history
This is how far you have to scroll on the NYTimes homepage to get any coverage of what's going on day-to-day in an occupied American city where schools are closing because the government is checking the papers of all brown or Asian people then brutalizing, imprisoning or killing them.

This excuse is getting tiresome. As an elected official, it’s your duty to inform your constituents if this is the case. Rip the fucking band-aid off now, conditions aren’t going to improve.
I think the reason we have not seen Frey, Her, and Walz change their orientations on exercising the use of state policing power to repel the federal occupation is that to do so would be to admit the State Patrol, National Guard, MPD, SPPD, et al., are de facto not actually under their command.

Cool so what are you actually going to do Senator Dipshit?
A Senator makes a truthful statement, protected by First Amendment and Speech/Debate Clause, and gets investigated by DOJ.
An ICE agent shoots and kills an unarmed mom, and they won’t even cooperate with local law enforcement.

every (straight reporter) story about ICE agents is like this, they’re all people who steal from the collection plate and beat their wives and and won’t stop making lewd remarks to the 13 year old girl next door and this is the only place in america where they could remain employed for six months
you’re a fucking grown ass man putting a 16 year old kid in handcuffs and then you steal his phone and sell it to a vending machine? what in the entire fuck is wrong you?

It’s unfair when people say Democrats don’t share the instinct Republicans have for creative obstruction. They’ll deploy the full artillery here in a way they never will, for say, stopping an american gestapo from murdering their constituents.

This is a 76 year old Senator who has no hope of ever being President, is two years into a six year term, and represents one of the most blue states in the country. She is being dog shit here simply for love of the game.
.@PabloReports: Would you vote for any funding increases for ICE?
Warren: Not without more restrictions. This is an agency that is out of control. If we don’t get some restrictions in place, they’re going to put more American citizens at risk.

Hilariously, the problem with rhetorically using training as a backdoor to dismantling ICE is asymmetric trust. Republicans can wink to their base and it’s fine because they can trust they will be the worst people on Earth in office. Dems can’t b/c they treat campaign promises as meaningless.

Was this strategy a big winner when every centrist dipshit did a backslapping podcast with Richard Hanania because he slightly backtracked on a few things?
When people you normally disagree with say something right, it’s good to say so. Noah Smith is right here, and being right in the knowledge that many of his followers will be furious.
