No. The problem has been very specifically one thing: if they move in any kind of detectable force, they pick up a tail within minutes, and then it often grows and grows until you have a dozen cars following two ICE SUVs, making so much noise that the entire neighborhood knows they’re there.
Do you think the general strike announcement spooked their higher ups at all?

Let’s talk about abolishing ICE.
Very few people who say “abolish ICE” mean “abandon all immigration enforcement.” Rather, they mean “the structure of immigration enforcement is irretrievably broken and needs to be reorganized, just like we did 23 years ago when we created ICE.”

The hack Trump has discovered is that if you escalate endlessly, at some point Democrats will stop escalating their response to you, because they’re scared of acknowledging what you are and what it obligates them to do. At that point you have total freedom to break any rule, do anything you want.
Such a stupid response. Trump is breaking the law. Again. For th 100th time. Schumer is making this sound like a policy difference, thus legitimizing it.

i don't think "why is the left against ___" is as much of a fruitful question as "why are so many seemingly irrational left wing positions explained by online bullying?"
I don’t understand the “oh, you have a LINE on a GRAPH, you think that MEANS anything?!” people who also self-id as some kind of socialist/communist. how exactly are you going to run the command economy, dude? macroeconomic policy made on vibes?
I don't think this a particularly accurate description.

The networks were afraid not to run Trump because they assumed he would use his office to punish them if they didn’t. The irony is that this is what Biden was warning about, a warning they chose not to share with America.
You'll remember that when Biden delivered an address in 2022, networks refused to air it because they said it was "political" www.washingtonpost.com/media/2022/0...
As Biden warned about democracy’s collapse, TV networks aired reruns
Broadcasters NBC, CBS and ABC usually air presidential prime-time addresses live. But they found Biden's Philadelphia speech more "political" than newsworthy.

The thing that gets me about this is that even if we wanted to make a positive AI ad, they never showcase AI being used to enhance someone’s day or improve their workflow. There’s no “it allows me to more easily do what I love.” It’s always presented as a failsafe for the dispassionate and incurious
Every ad for AI is like
Person: FUCK!! I don’t know what to get my loved one for Christmas!!!!!! I love them so much!!! Tell me what to do, AI!!
AI: get sock
Title Card: You are literally the smartest person for doing this

“Anyone who helps me try to steal an election gets a pardon” is perhaps the most corrupt thing to happen in American history.
That “conservatives” have simply accepted this as the price of admission is the greatest moral and intellectual humiliation.
