Can you guess who authored this piece without looking at the byline? Who might not have any relevant expertise in nutrition, but would make it a habit of trying to hand it to RFKJ?

You can see the dude calmly walk away after he murdered her. What are we even doing here. They’re writing this shit up as of the rest of us don’t have video of the whole thing from four different angle. I feel

Durbin balking at “abolish ice” even though he’s retiring and has nothing left to lose shows you that the Dems as a party are not where their median voter is. Which sucks.

Typical Dems have elected typical judges or typical police captains that have let cops off for exactly what this agent did today. I like Biss but he’s a typical Dem and I don’t trust him to abolish ice and I’m not going to vote for anyone that won’t make that a top priority.
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

One reason we are losing is that Republicans angry that they can’t teach the Bible as public school curriculum are hard at work proudly abolishing the Department of Education, but outright kidnapping and murder are not enough to get Democratic leadership to say “Abolish ICE”

Th dems walked right the fuck into this. “Let’s just give the military all the money!” has been a bipartisan thing for years now and so good luck getting these focus group pilled idiots to say no and risk being “anti military”. Same with policing. Once u put yourself in that box there’s no out
Trump: "I have determined that, for the Good of our Country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our Military Budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 Trillion Dollars, but rather $1.5 Trillion. This will allow us to build the 'Dream Military' that we have long been entitled to."

Do you know who Willie Horton is? What about Laken Riley? How is it that you came to know these things?
Ok, now. Without googling, how many Jan 6 rioters have recidivated? Been charged with violent or child-sex crimes? What are their names? Who were their victims?
More on the disparity here.

And iirc Liz Cheney stoped the committee from investigating ties to either the police or big donors.
January 6th would never have been possible without the willing complicity of local police departments supporting and protecting the violent right-wing militias who spent all of 2020 doing practice runs against our local communities across the entire US.

I remember one article where NYT tried to frame it as an issue of ppl under economic pressure by pointing out a bunch of them had field bankruptcy at some point and I mean look at your boy, dawg, he’s the king of bankruptcies and he stayed eating good
My one real comment on the Jan 6 5 yr anniversary is that it was carried out by rich people. The poor hick stereotype is incorrect. It was rich people, suburban millionaires and their backers. We know this from who was arrested. It cost money to go to DC, stay at fancy hotels, fund this, etc.
Scores of now-pardoned Jan. 6 insurrectionists will gather from 11:45am for a march to the Capitol starting at the Ellipse.
One insurrectionist who says he's attending: Enrique Tarrio, who was sentenced to prison until 2045 until Trump intervened.

WaPo framing this as “stubbornly complex” is so goddamned funny
WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches
