To reiterate: aiming a firearm at a non-violent bystander who is not resisting arrest or posing any threat is an illegal use of force and possibly a crime.
This ICE agent should be investigated for misconduct. No one is above the law.

The shutdown was about cuts to Obamacare subsidies. It was about an increasingly lawless administration that simply stopped participating in normal politics.
A few days ago, the Democrats had all the leverage in the world. What is there to say now?

There are now cement trucks entering the White House construction site, which is not what you'd expect for a project that hasn't been reviewed by anyone yet.
The White House has previously said no NCPC approvals are needed yet because they're just doing demo, not construction.

why it's almost as if Bari Weiss was specifically hired by a right wing billionaire to turn CBS into a right wing propaganda mill
NEW from me:
In recent weeks, Bari Weiss has been complaining that CBS News' Standards and Practices unit has "too much power," stoking fears in the newsroom that she's going to try to disband the team.

NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.
So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.
Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

Finished reading @juliagaffield.bsky.social 's biography of Jeans-Jaques Dessalines, one of the founding fathers of Haiti. The book is a story of what Dessalines did versus the way he has been sometimes inaccurately portrayed for political reasons as a bloodthirsty unthinking man unfit to rule. 1/

Tim Kaine is on MSNBC accusing Katy Tur of "overdramatizing" the way he and some other Democrats caved. "This is by far a minor-league issue within the Democratic Party," Kaine said.
He's completely out of touch, or just lying.

When I lived in a cultish community, they often used “unity” as a method to silence those who expressed disagreement or who were victimized by the system.
Same dynamic here. One sided “unity.” Unity for me, not for thee.
