Underrated thing that's been flying under the radar: ICE's hiring spree, by necessity since there are so few others willing and able, has been hiring away local cops, which infuriates the departments by causing manpower problems and is, ironically, removing the worst of the worst from their ranks.
The more local police see ICE assholes as criminals, the better it will be for us.
ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say.
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Turns out, when you run on lowering prices and releasing Epstein files, but then do *the exact opposite*, people get a bit miffed.
Fox Biz: "A new Reuters poll shows President Trump's approval rating falling to its lowest level. This is because, apparently, of prices and the Epstein files."

Breaking: House accidentally votes to give tax cuts to Jeffrey Epstein and take away benefits from the poor.
One Representative voted against plan, noting Jeffrey Epstein is dead. He was rebuked with a loud and unanimous "Is he? Is he?"

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

Meanwhile, MAGA is still pretending that trans women are the real bathroom threat.
Listen to this Border Patrol agent cry about how he's going to be DOXXED after being arrested for drunkenly barging into a woman's restroom with a loaded gun, demanding a date from the woman inside, and then punching the arresting officers.

98% of what is wrong in the world today can be traced to male insecurity, in particular white male insecurity that is now concerned with having to compete with people of color on an even playing field.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

One of the GOP's sweatier Epstein defenses has been "if they had good stuff they'd have used it when Biden was president." But the growing awareness that Garland spiked anything that could look political explains this!
I feel like “mad at Merrick Garland” is going to hit a whole new level.

Look, Donald Trump may have had a lengthy, well documented friendship with America’s most famous pedophile, and he may have spent decades giving quotes like “if there’s one thing I love, its beautiful girls—young ones, too,” but I just need 4-5 more drops of damning evidence to buy these accusations

Schatz is reportedly a no. I’m guessing Durbin (retiring) and Cortez Masto (voting with Republicans the entire time) make 60 and nobody else takes the heat.
Kaine & King aren’t up for reelection til 2030 plus King is 81, Shaheen is retiring, Hassan is up in 2028, Fetterman is a Republican

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

the strongest signal I’ve seen so far — the centrist and institutionalist wing of the Democratic Party is saying ‘hell no’
The government has been shut down for 40 days—the longest in history. All Democrats have fought hard for extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits that make health care affordable for millions. I’m voting against the bill given it doesn’t extend these valuable tax credits.
