Beshear is interesting in that he has every reason to go full Blue Dog Dem for political reasons yet he actually has progressive principles and sticks to them
ICE is anti-American.
ICE agents are targeting our neighbors, our coworkers, and our friends. This is wrong and they need to be held accountable.

the logic of his position is that you would them abandon those issues and so on and so on until you’ve fully sacrificed a group of vulnerable americans to reactionary bullies for the sake of a percentage point (if that)
Like this. "You must strategically abandon the specific issues that the right has rendered toxic & focus on others."
But then ... why wouldn't the right just be able to do the same thing on those other issues?

A military attack on another country is called a war; saying it's just a military 'confrontation' or a 'calibrated strike' diminishes the severity of the act, regardless of whether it leads to region-wide conflict.
Something to keep in mind in the non-debates on Iran.

They are from Azerbaijan. One has a green card, the other had an asylum claim.
Both have agreed to leave the U.S. if the Trump administration would just free one of the husbands from custody after more than a month in detention.

Gay man says ICE is keeping his husband jailed even though they’ve agreed to leave the U.S.
“We applied for asylum, we got married ... every legal step that needs to be done, we have done that. But ICE now is lying,” Samir Gadirov says.

This primary is a bizzaro world of projection and grudge rehashing, it’s not easy to make sense of but on the plus side, it accomplishes nothing at all.

The interior of Kristi Noem’s new billionaire-class luxury jet is complete with two bidets and a wet bar with a wine chiller. It will be purchased on our dime from the slush fund Congress approved in the One Big Beautiful Bill.
