No amount of paid media (coming from an ads guy!), TikTok/IG videos, or legacy media interviews will do more to endear the Democratic brand to voters than just being in the community providing a real service.

With Trump set to use crime as a fake justification to threaten DC today, media coverage should make one thing clear: At this point his pattern of manufacturing pretexts for militarizing domestic law enforcement has become undeniable. Some thoughts on that here:

The most unsafe I've ever felt in DC was 1) when Trump sent the National Guard after peaceful protesters in June 2020 and 2) When Trump did not call the National Guard while an armed mob stormed the Capitol building on January 6. Trump is the "crime, savagery, filth, and scum"

That Dems aren’t blowing this up is political malpractice
Trump's recent conduct makes it seem MUCH likelier there's something really damning about him in the Epstein case file, and he and Bondi and Patel are attempting a coverup. But the other scenario is also very damning. Dems should use power to find out which it is. www.offmessage.net/p/epstein-li...

Trump: “Many of them were born in our country. I think we oughta get them the hell out of here, too.”
Let’s tally it up:
👉 Concentration camps (CECOT + "Alligator Alcatraz")
👉 Pushing DOJ to pursue denaturalization
👉 Attacks on birthright citizenship
Republicans desperately crave fascism.

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."

Trump, 39%: proceeding “as expected”
At a hundred days into his presidency, Joe Biden had a 52% approval rating.
As we near the hundred days mark in his second term, Donald Trump has a 39% approval rating.
Here's how those numbers were framed by the media:

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.
