There's optimism about humanity, and then there's naivety, and then there's benefit of the doubt, and then there's self-delusion, and then believing that cops do evil because they're insufficiently educated is about another two steps past "delusion".

Please stop saying more training will fix ICE or even police brutality in general.

Education won't solve brutality if you're being taught how to brutalize people.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

My most authoritarian opinion is that the MMR vaccine should be mandatory, with only medical (not religious or floofy) exemptions allowed. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

CANADA 🇨🇦 🥌 FOR THE WIN

The Canadians have defeated Sweden 8-6 in a feisty, tense men’s curling game at the Olympics.

Canada is now 3-0 at the Games. Sweden, defending champions, drop to 0-3

Aside from his obvious ideological flaws, Newsom has become an amalgamation of what is wrong with politicians in general in the Trump era, in that he sees himself primarily as a content creator.

Democratic party leaders know they have a large percentage of voters who will always vote for harm reduction and yet the harm is always increasing. Yes the Republican party has agency too, but telling leftists to shut up for fucking years has gotten Democrats to this current situation.

i think nominating Gavin Newsom will lose the White House again for Democrats. The party's left flank will stay home again because he's an empty corporate shell. The age of Democrats punching left to appeal to the center is over and it's now a matter of if the party as a whole realizes that or not.

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

"will you vote for newsom in the general" is designed to undermine the left opposition to him *in the primary.* it's meant to show that the left can be ignored because they'll come around or that they can be ignored because they're a lost cause. the mission *now* is to make newsom lose the primary.
democratic primary voters keep fucking up and we're trying to get ahead of it this time by letting them know that newsom isn't electable

As we have seen the government and elected officials in both parties tried to distance Ices actions from law-enforcement because people were starting to draw the correct comparison that law-enforcement as a whole is a dangerous, violent white power institution and ice is the face of that

This is why I'm not gonna stop conflating Fuentes with the GOP at large.

The fact Fuentes' dinner with Trump wasn't a scandal within the GOP that ended Trump's toleration by others in the GOP is proof the GOP endorses him. Saying otherwise is denial at this point.
I was hesitant to even give it oxygen, but then it’s like, this guy had dinner with the president
