Sadly, this is why Democratic leaders needed to act when the iron was hot — to lead, get out on the streets, and mobilize public opinion.

It may now be that their moment has passed and the public has moved on. If so, what a shame; what a lost opportunity.
Sometimes very hard not to feel like the rest of the country has abandoned Minnesota. We STILL have ICE everywhere. Our schools, businesses, and economy are in profound crisis. But without Bovino here throwing tear gas, much of the country seems to not care at all what’s being done to us.

"rich asshole who stops a multi-billion dollar project and causes an international incident to protect his lucrative duty-free gasoline concession" is really the perfect exemplar of parasitic trumpism. think of how wealthy the american people would be if we shook off all these bloodsuckers.

A professor of mine in college showed the class a picture of a young boy in post-WWII Italy sitting atop a bunch of flour bags with that classic U.S. star. It was him; he never forgot the country that fed him and his family.

Ah, well, too bad, guess we'll just be known as deranged shitheads.

genuinely with him on this one, the eagerness to fedjacket a guy who has made right-wingers more angry than you've ever managed because he's using different tactics is playing kid games with adult consequences

This is amazing, forums were obviously the peak online group communication platforum, and among forums the vbulletin design was the best
coding assistance lets you fast-track important projects that improve your life, such as reformatting every single site you read into the old vbulletin 3.x default template

Yeah I think these officials should just straight up say what the issue is. It's a full-on authoritarian crackdown and they are not doing more about it because they either cannot or will not. Whichever it is should be stated plainly IMO
Your constituents lives have been turned over entirely because of a federal occupation. That you’re pulling your punches because you’re worried about it becoming a constitutional crisis is overlooking what is already happening. You need to at least communicate that you understand what is happening.

their entire strategy is now entirely contingent on never facing prosecution future because every single one of these guys are routinely engaging in perjury. each one of them is a weak link in a chain of command that is literally predicated on never facing consequences or else it all collapses.
REP. CORREA: One of your officers in Maine said to a protester, "We're gonna put your face in a little database." Do you?

ICE DIRECTOR: No sir, we don't.

CORREA: Then why do you think your ICE agent said those statements?

ICE DIRECTOR: I can't speak for that individual.

it might be the autism or maybe just something else but i have to intentionally focus on the lyrics and ignore the instrumentation to even process them at all
It's so funny to see so many people pretend that they only enjoy music when they have a deep understanding of the lyrics

I didnt even look specifically because of this, but i really wonder what % of TPUSA's viewership for their show was just people who wanted to mock what a shitshow it was, my guess at least 10%

Note: Just like Mohsen Mahdawi, ICE snatched Leqaa at what she thought was a routine immigration check-in, after she protested Israel’s genocide of Gaza.

They then took her from New Jersey to Texas—where she’s been detained for nearly a year.

Now she’s hospitalized and her whereabouts are unknown.
NEW: Leqaa Kordia — who’s been in ICE detention for nearly a year, since ICE took her the same week as Mahmoud Khalil — has been hospitalized after having a seizure.

Her whereabouts & health are now unknown.

The Trump admin alleges she supports Hamas because…she sent money to help family in Gaza.

I know it's uncouth to say, but if we ever want to have any honor as a country again, all these people need to die.
ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Democrats have obsessed over fine-tuning MESSAGES at the cost of fatal damage to their BRAND
I am both a believer in "Dems core messaging has been shit for almost two decades now" and "in the context of a presidential election itself messaging counts for very little, see 2016, 2020 and 2024"

These things are both true and, I think, largely self-evident!

TRIGGER WARNING, because here is a US Marshal from Trump‘s Gestapo Force in Memphis kicking a puppy today in the Whitehaven neighborhood and breaking its rib. They were serving a warrant and I guess BIG MAN got scared of the schnauzer.

Posted this the other day, but I think the main reason people are mad at Schumer and Jeffries and Dem electeds in general is that they refuse to endorse any specific vision of... anything, really.
