If you didn't think that Prosecutor and Sheriff elections were important before, you must believe they are now in this era of Trump's ICE.

It's time we all learned about these crucial criminal justice elections in 2026.

To bring it full circle to "everyone on the left who listens to right radio is an idiot", I tuned into Austin's conservative talk radio & noticed they were conspicuously not discussing the Trump quotes for their listeners, so I called in "as a strong 2A supporter" & they did most of my work for me
it is your duty as a patriot to run 2A psyops against Republicans right now

I am. But there are three things at play here regarding ICE collecting private data. Quick rundown on the issue, why you should be paying attention, and what I'm doing about it:
So which politician is calling for the dismantling of the probably illegal database that ice & this government is collecting biometric data of protesters?

1. ICE is using Palantir apps to collect biometric data on protestors. I'm working closely with @markey.senate.gov to stop this.

I don’t know, should I?

I’m a reasonable person who is all out of fucks for people who:

1. Stayed home in protest on Election Day

2. Don’t know how government works

3. Don’t understand the unprecedented nature of what’s happening

4. Don’t realize the importance of taking back power in November

but then theyd have to point out that their best buddies the Republicans and their supporters are above and beyond responsible for the bulk of it and theyd never want to hurt their feelings like that
I think American political media should acknowledge how insanely lopsided political violence is in America.

“Are MAGA Republicans worse than Democrats” and “I don’t care that 20 million people are right now dying of starvation and disease as a direct result of the difference” are identical statements
You can't fix the problems without fixing the politics, you won't fix the politics without addressing the problems there. If Democrats can't admit their failings are they really any better than MAGA? 2/2

Immigrants are good. They come here and make our lives (and theirs) richer, literally and metaphorically. All of this ICE terror is based on the lie that immigration is bad. All of this madness is just a country punching itself in the face for no reason at all.
Breaking News: The U.S. population grew last year at one of the slowest rates in history. The immigration numbers plunged by more than 50% from the previous year, under the aggressive anti-immigration policies of President Trump, according to the Census Bureau.
U.S. Population Growth Slows Sharply as Immigration Numbers Plunge
The new census estimates reflect President Trump’s anti-immigration policies. South Carolina is the nation’s fastest-growing state, while Florida’s growth declined.

JD Vance's strategy for succeeding Trump as head of the MAGA movement is predicated on retaining and exciting the support of violent Nazis all around the US. That's what makes his Holocaust commemoration so unique.

In all seriousness: there is an easy way to make yourself the base of the Democratic Party. Vote for them in every election, even off year ones, even local ones. Congratulations, you are now the base.
I feel like a huge problem on this app is an inability to engage with who the base of the Democratic party actually is & how they came about being it.

No joke, they will even send you surveys to find out what you care about so that they can adjust their platform to better represent what you want!

A huge amount of the problem here is that these people have completely internalised an adversarial model of politics in which parties will only ever cater to the people who constantly attempt to blackmail them, in spite of the fact that this has literally never worked at any point

They love posting the "this is fine" meme but *they* are the ones pleading for you to ignore that Trump set your house on fire. Dems would have set your house on fire just as much, they scream, just hoping against hope that you will burn quietly rather than finally wake up enough to vote Democrat.

I say this dead seriously: people like internet hippo here genuinely get scared when Trump and his people fuck up too bad, because they know people might realize "holy fuck this is awful, the Democrats were right!!", so they double down on Dem bashing to keep people from having those epiphanies.

This person is just a wrecker, but among non wreckers who nonetheless get taken in by this crap, there's a tendency to believe that advertising is everything. If you really try hard enough and find just the right combination of words you can convince anyone to do anything. This is not true.

The full list of "lol no we had that with Biden and everyone hated it" is pretty depressing
I really wish we had a Presidential administration that didn't consist almost entirely of palace intrigue via social media. Like, imagine an administration that was totally and completely offline in every way, wouldn't that be amazing?

Lol no we had that with Biden and everybody hated it.
Katie Miller is now jumping in to blame CBP and defend her husband.

(All of this shows how vulnerable Stephen Miller is, so we need to keep the pressure on to get him out of the administration.)

They aren’t going to hammer any scandal that implicates them for abetting it, so Trump being 50,000 times more senile than Biden on his worst day is a nonstarter.
Idk he did an interview where he forgot what Alzheimer’s was called and they haven’t gone knives out over that
