This is how all Democrats should respond
@govpritzker.illinois.gov's take on Kirk is the correct one:

"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

On point. So glad Democrats are saying this.

Hard to express just how much of a dream-come-true it was to be asked to write Deadpool. The fact we got to end it on our own terms was just icing on the cake! Big thanks to my wonderful editors Ellie, MR, Mark, and Cy, and an even bigger thanks to all the wonderful fans for supporting our book!

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

Don't you all realize what this means? The right will begin a systematic and extralegal oppression of their political enemies and vulnerable populations. This is the first thing I saw on the news after waking up from a 25-year coma.

6-3 in favor of Trump in the birthright citizenship case—

which at this stage was only about about nationwide injunctions.

But Sotomayor brings it back to what this is really about—letting Trump get away with lawlessness. Her dissent is another banger which she is reading from the bench:

this court says that allowing EPA to regulate carbon emissions is a "major question" that demands congressional debate. but allowing the president to, with a flick of the wrist, end a straightforward constitutional right is something that must be allowed to stand?

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

At the end of the day, the question before the Court is whether people can be disappeared off streets in this country, by armed men wearing masks, to be imprisoned in a foreign land without trial. Everything else is legal mumbo-jumbo.

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy.

Genocide.
Israel’s military launched a large-scale bombing campaign on the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, breaking the fragile ceasefire with Hamas that has been in place since late January.

At least 404 people have been killed, with 562 injured, Gaza’s Health Ministry said.

Trump is about to do some unhinged violence and say he did it for the Jews and I hope you all fucking know better then to believe him that we want any of it.
Literally like an hour since the news broke and the Jews on my timeline already feeling the need to defend themselves and protect themselves and disavow whatever the administration is about to do and life is absolutely excruciating right now.

We live in a repugnant time where the primary mission of the federal government is directly targeting the most vulnerable groups for punishment and abuse in order to win cheers of approval from the cruel mob the president whipped up to get himself elected
Went and I checked this, and Edwin's correct: On the left is text from the reconciliation bill "PROHIBITING FEDERAL MEDICAID AND CHIP FUNDING FOR GENDER TRANSITION PROCEDURES FOR MINORS" On the right is from the Manager's amendment that strikes the word "FOR MINORS."

happy for Khalil of course but i must say, "lawful permanent resident not charged with any crimes, imprisoned by president's stormtroopers for having forbidden opinions about US-abetted genocide, briefly allowed to touch his child" is a hell of a thing to find oneself feeling joy and relief about
A HAPPY UPDATE! Mahmoud Khalil was allowed a "contact" visit—without plexiglass divider—with his wife and newborn son this morning before his immigration hearing, ACLU tells me, so I think we can safely assume that he was finally able to hold his child for the first time.
NEW: Mahmoud Khalil's attorneys urgently ask Judge Farbiarz to order ICE to permit Khalil to hold his newborn son today "for the most elementary human reasons." ICE has so far denied the request, despite his wife and child having made the 1,500-mile trip. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

DOGE will almost certainly end up COSTING the government more than the trivial sum they’ve saved. Nothing about the way they’ve operated makes a lick of sense as a sincere attempt to cut waste or ferret out fraud. They do just enough theater on that front to preserve the illusion that’s their aim.
