Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week.
ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

Both highly recommended.

hard not to notice that as trump's polls crater and gop gets crushed in election after election, news orgs are not racing around hiring progressive commenters and boasting about how they're reaching out to real americans by following the will of the volk.

If you exaggerate about the effects of tear gas or smoke, or just make up some nonsense, or take some pseudoscientific conclusions, or just play fast and loose with terms, you are helping ICE and their fascist tactics

“Reform and retrain” ICE is some seriously weak shit. Call it laboratory liberalism. The data clearly justifies a more aggressive approach. “Reduce ICE funds and restore ACA spending” probably the most popular message rn.
What voter is moved to vote D by “retraining” ICE? Come on

"People are being too purist about Gavin Newsom."
He invited yet another rightwing extremist to have a podcast conversation and instead of pushing back against that extremism, Newsom, yet again, backed down immediately.
I want a leader who isn't going to placate extremists. That's not a tough ask.

I love when you tell people how terrible Newsom is, they're always like, "Well, it's nice to have ideals, but if it comes down to him or the Nazi in the general, *I* am going to vote for him"

Adam Tooze on professional Dems: “If you had any self-respect, you would not be on any podium again, ever, sounding off about anything. Because comrades, if we were in the 30s, I would have taken you out and shot you. You fail like this, you don’t get to come back and show off your wounds.”

When I did This Guilty Land, I spent the year before its publication carefully & consistently framing its argument and its approach, and I do feel it's incumbent on someone making a serious game on a sensitive topic to do that. But to demonstrate your thoughtfulness you need to *be* thoughtful. 🧵
And one thing I want to make clear: I dont think anyone who saw this and reacted negatively has to give it the benefit of the doubt.
If you are designing a game on a sensitive issue, it is on *you* to show that you did the work and it is *your* job to convince the audience that this should exist.

Mike Johnson compellingly making the case for abolishing ICE ...
Mike Johnson: "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do"
Mike Johnson comes out against additional guardrails on ICE as Democrats call for it.
“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”

Trump: "Sadly, the Great Influencer, Scott Adams, has passed away. He was a fantastic guy, who liked and respected me when it wasn’t fashionable to do so. He bravely fought a long battle against a terrible disease. My condolences go out to his family, and all of his many friends and listeners."
