I’m at a point where I don’t want my representatives to consider Republicans’ opinions at all.

Republicans run on eliminating entire Departments and Agencies all the time, and they win. Then they abolish the departments. Far more valuable departments too (Education, CFPB, etc.)

Democrats have to understand that running on “Abolish ICE” is not going to lose you any votes. It is the mainstream opinion. The only people who don’t want to abolish ICE are Republicans, but somehow, also Dem leadership —
Which is why they should all be primaried.

Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

“Aw shucks, I’m just a simple farmer,” doesn’t work when you’ve been a US Senator for 45 years
Suddenly republicans have forgotten what the constitution says 🤷🏼 🇺🇸

these right wing clowns continuing to express absolute shock over the organizing of the left also reflects a deeply sexist ignorance of the fact that EXPERIENCED, INCREDIBLY EFFICIENT AND HARDWORKING VOLUNTEERS, PRIMARILY WOMEN, RUN THE FUCKING SHOW WITH ALMOST EVERYTHING GOOD IN THIS COUNTRY
I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

Big tough guy over here
BARTIROMO: There is outrage across the country that there is another killing. Someone is dead at the hands of Border Patrol. What can you tell us?

KASH PATEL: You do not get to attack law enforcement officials in this country without any repercussions. We not messing around.

The brazen ignorance to say something like this.
Attorney General Pam Bondi: "Our country was founded on law enforcement"
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

It’s going to get worse before it gets better, but we’re going to win.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

According to an internal email to Washington Post sports staff, the paper isn't sending any reporters to cover the winter Olympics next month. The decision comes as major layoffs are expected in the coming weeks.

I’m thinking more about how we’re all millions of flawed sense-making units having millions of different lived experiences of our current, utterly chaotic situation and (for the most part, the exceptions hopefully are obvious) all trying to see each other through.

When do we get to fire Chuck Schumer from his position? Like, if he was a college football coach, you still think he’d have his job at this point? We’ve had a whole year with no wins.
