I don’t think we should make concessions to the Masked Murderers Guild of America. I don’t think we should compromise so the Masked Murderers Guild of America stops using kidnapped kids from schools as bait. I thought this was already illegal. The Masked Murderers Guild of America should not exist.

Indeed. Senate Dems don't even need to say "abolish ICE." They can do their obnoxious "we need to investigate this, come up with reforms" or whatever.
But there is no good reason to rush to whatever compromise the GOP will accept. Dems have the advantage. Use it. Let the GOP stew in their problems.

the first best Senate ask is to split the DHS funding from the rest of the minibus.
It wrongfoots Republicans, it unites the D caucus, and it becomes more compelling rather than less compelling the longer Rs resist it. plus all the minibus components were negotiated separately anyway

It will never be enough. It is distraction at best and if they do get personal information they will use it for actual harm at worst.
No matter what you give there is always a “next”. That’s why you respond with a middle finger from the very first request.
Not an inch.

2) Doesn’t match the video anyway.
3) DHS has lied in exactly this way after shooting someone before.

Can anyone in Minneapolis guide me to whomever is on the ground making sure the kids that rely on free lunches are being fed during these two days? I'd like to send them some $.

Glad that they're talking about this. Now do how they merged databases and changed the legal name of everyone who had two last names (no hyphen). It's been been a really fun six months.
Me, trying again, on how John Roberts gave Big Balls access to all our Social Security data.

This is continued journalistic malpractice from the @startribune.com normalizing a violent white male suspect. He owned a private security company called Praetorian Guard, traveled overseas to preach against abortion and LGBTQ+ people, and attended a bible college that preaches "violent prayer."
Suspect showed few signs of political extremism before lawmaker shootings
Friends and associates say Vance Boelter, who was apprehended late Sunday and charged with murdering a state lawmaker and her husband, was mild-mannered and did not appear to be fixated on politics.

I'm going to get ahead of some uninformed outrage. The second-degree murder charges against Vance Boelter are all that can be brought against him *right now.* Prosecutors can charge him with first-degree premeditated murder, but that requires a grand jury indictment, not just a criminal complaint.

The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence?
Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue.

If you know me, you know that I have chromesthesia, or sound-to-color synesthesia, where I don't just hear music, but I also see it in color. So imagine being a kid and hearing God Only Knows for the first time, with its Bach-level sophistication. I cried for hours at the beauty of it. I still do.
