I really need to know how Trump voters can’t feel secondhand embarrassment from Trump. Like that ignorance must be so blissful.

Abigail Spanberger did not end Virginia’s 287(g) partnership with ICE yesterday, despite reports to the contrary.
What Spanberger did do is rescind Glenn Youngkin’s order that required the state police + DOC to sign ICE contracts. She terminated the requirement, but not the contracts themselves.

Matt Gaetz was Donald Trump's first choice nominee to be Attorney General of the United States. Now he's on his weird TV show claiming the Jews are burning down Argentinean forests to set up another Jewish state in the Americas as part of a globalist masterplan.

they have literally never gotten over the Obama situation room photo for the bin Laden raid
the photographer was definitely like, "ok everybody, look tough!" but we know they're all just reading tweets with their arms crossed in a country club dining room divided up by bedsheets tacked to the beams

Mark Kelly puts out a statement saying "The President of the United States just overthrew a foreign ruler and explained to the American people that this is about taking control of the oil reserves of a foreign nation." This is probably the strongest statement alongside Gallego's I've read.

Dems need to consider that one reason Trump is barreling us into wars is because he wants an excuse to use the Insurrection act and cancel our own elections.
This would of course also be “illegal” but the Supreme Court and Republican congress have proven themselves to be useless.

If you let him get away with this, he’ll do it with Iran and whatever other neocon bugaboos have been lingering around conservative media since Obama first started running. Maybe Greenland but less intense because white. One of them will invariably respond in the mainland U.S. Stop him before then.

The fraud scandal coming out of Minnesota all goes back to two things: racism and xenophobia.
It’s not a new story, it’s not something that’s been ignored, but MAGA is so desperate to pit blame against minorities that they’ll spin this as something that has just come out of nowhere.
Disgusting.

Why would you need to put a pause on a story that has been meticulously fact-checked and lawyered?
Sounds like the kind of story you’d want to run right away!

Fwiw I think the “apologize for being white” thing is very clearly about making sure white people don’t feel an obligation to alleviate past injustices or make society fairer. Ultimately to do that you have to raise taxes and the billionaires holding Vance’s leash don’t want that.

In the summer of 1950 most US newspapers ran an AP story about how race had become the main issue in the upcoming Georgia governor's race. Segregationist Herman Tallmadge, governor from '47 to '55 and then a Senator until 1981 made a name for himself by refusing to "apologize for being a white man."
