Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."

MIller’s enthusiasm for maximum cruelty and racism are hurting Trump. But since it helped him on the way to/back to power (and because Trump has always been deeply racist), it’ll be hard for Trump to be persuaded to dump him.

But…dare to dream.

Although guns have been a part of US culture from the beginning, modern right-wing gun culture is downstream of the industry's need for profit, and they do that by selling a fantasy of right-wing violence against left wingers, Pretti doesn't fit that fantasy bsky.app/profile/hcom...

Maybe not quite as extreme, but I don't think the Massachusetts Republican party ever recovers from its embrace of Trump. Which is a remarkable own goal after Charlie Baker's tenure.
trump has probably destroyed the minnesota republican party for the duration
pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:

"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

Explain to me exactly which policies are being violated that the surge is supposed to fix.

GOVT: Civil detainers.

JUDGE: What info?

The President is sending Tom Homan to Minnesota.

He accepted $50,000 in cash bribes from FBI Agents stuffed in a CAVA bag.

Trump, Kristi Noem, Greg Bovino, and Tom Homan—they're all corrupt, in it for themselves, & lying to you.

Alina Habba's plea for an en banc re-hearing over her disqualification has been rejected. The ruling that she was unlawfully appointed stands.
The 3d Circuit has denied rehearing en banc of the panel decision finding that Alina Habba had been unlawfully appointed as US Attorney. However, 3 of the 11 en banc judges would have granted rehearing, and one will later publish a dissent.

The current position of the Republicans in Congress: They would change nothing that ICE and CBP are doing, and they'd allow massive increases in funding for what they're now doing to go ahead. They're just fine with the current policies, practices, and governance of ICE and CBP.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.
