Age verification?

I died of dysentery crossing the Oregon Trail.

I grew up downloading DOOM shareware on one of these.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

I wrote about Minnesota and ICE and how average Americans are reclaiming the power that the administration is abusing.

This was three weeks ago and people were saying Ganz was being too harsh on him. He wasn't harsh enough apparently!

Republicans are in here cosplaying as protectors of women and children, but they were silent when Renee Good was killed, willingly voted to cut SNAP, and are now sitting by as ICE rips children away from their families.

Miss me with the selective outrage.

I'll say what I've been saying forever but it's especially true now: now is the time for Democrats to hammer the message that these things are being done by REPUBLICANS, not "Trump." People are ripe for you to create the dissonance of their identification as a Republican!
Remarkable: 55% of noncollege whites and even 50% of rural whites say ICE is too aggressive, per new Fox News poll.

And 71% of independents disapprove of Trump on immigration.

This is digging deep into Trump's base.

We detail these numbers on today's pod:

Trump Tirade over Protests Goes Off Rails as Crushing Fox Poll Hits
As Trump grows more delusional about how hated his ICE raids have become, a longtime pro-immigrant organizer explains why this may be a watershed moment in terms of public opinion on the issue.

The left needs to 100% rebrand these programs as a hand up. Thanks Brooke!
Brooke Rollins: "The American dream is not being on a food stamp program. The American dream is not being on all these programs. That should be a hand up, not a handout. As of yesterday, we have moved 1.75 million people off of SNAP."

Tesla's earnings show a dead husk of a company that Elon Musk is going to try to suck all the remaining value from, writes @ryanlcooper.com. But his cult of retail investors likely don't care.

Schumer is so pathetically weak. He better be ready to abolish when they piss on his "reforms"
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.

2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.

3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

Just a reminder that both Ilhan Omar and Maxwell Frost have been attacked this week.

No outrage by right-wing media or even corporate media.

Now imagine if this were done to Republicans.

The entire system is rigged in favor of conservatives, folks. The double standards are just wild.
