The reason there has been little to no social progress in decades is because there is no real progressive party. The Democrats are more like what the Republicans used to be like during Eisenhower's time and the Republicans have just gone further and further off of the bat shit deep end.

When our country's leader shits all over the War Dead of a country that helped us fight a war, is it any wonder that country now hates our fucked up nation and everything in it?
Next thing, he start killing his own people!

This is probably one of the worst legal takes from a Trump DOJ official of all time.
Which is really saying something since Harmeet Dhillon has two accounts on Twitter.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment
"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.
At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

Do not let them assassinate this man’s character the same day they killed him in cold blood. Alex was a registered nurse who stood up when others stayed silent. If our federal leaders had half of his courage, new funding for ICE wouldn’t have been approved by Congress less than 72 hours ago.

Mirror-imaging. They could never imagine putting themselves on the line for another person or their community (remember JD Vance's theory of love, that it extends only to your family and no one else?) and they know any "resistance" on their end would be purely transactional - so they assume the same
James O'Keefe says he's never seen anything so organized as the anti-ICE movement, observers--he seems to think this term is code--everywhere he goes. Who is paying for it??? he demands to know. It's like he can't even imagine people caring for one another.

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit.

Absolutely right, Jack. It took a long time, but it worked in the Vietnam War Protests. Link arms, sit down, and make them arrest you. I know, I was one of them. Tear gassed, night sticked, and arrested.
