regarding Mamdani-Hochulism
He’s going to be in NY politics longer than her. He gets to make real progress with state support (opposite of Pritzker/Johnson), she gets to be reelected, and he gets to be kingmaker next cycle. This is sound politics

“Rare mis-stepper Stephen Miller”. I’m struggling to determine what planet these people exist on
Stephen Miller called Alex Pretti a “domestic terrorist” after the VA nurse was killed by federal agents, a rare misstep for Miller, the White House aide stoking President Trump’s boundary-pushing impulses.

I testified Friday before Gov. Pritzker's commission studying abuses of ICE and CBP and tried to explain how the agencies went so far off track. It's actually way worse than I ever realized. Please read and share my testimony as Congress considers reform: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...
Accountability for ICE and CBP
However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

You're laughing. The radical left is painting trains coming through tunnels on cliff faces and you're laughing.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin on "acts of violence" against ICE agents in Minnesota: "Pouring water on the ground so that it would freeze the ground in front of our federal law enforcement vehicles so that they would potentially slide, crash, and potentially kill them"

I keep saying this but the Bundy example is instructive. In the absence of police pressure they simply will not do this if there are more than 10-20 heavily armed civilians in the way. They have no training and no courage.
Not remotely legal. Minnesota needs to arrest these thugs breaking down doors right now, before they start grabbing even more power

Want to point out that they’ve also gutted the IRS, severely handicapping their ability to address a mass tax boycott
at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

This is why a lot of white people can’t and won’t be trusted, and aren’t real allies.

Never beating the allegations.
