"Fascist governments are condemned to lose wars because they are constitutionally incapable of objectively evaluating the force of the enemy." - Umberto Eco, "Ur-Fascism"
To those saying “nuh-uh, ICE picked Minneapolis because they WANTED the city to rise up as one against them” -
no, pretty sure they expected a scattering of blue-haired protesters they could easily crush for content + tacit support from other whites, not the organized total resistance they got.

ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

Many Americans are terrible neighbors to each other, and that is why MN is striking everyone as extraordinary activism... when they are telling us that it is not. They're good neighbors!
It's no wonder that "being a shitty neighbor" is the hallmark of our domestic politics and our foreign policy.

I appreciate the universe's dedication to looking like early Doctor Who.

Chuck Schumer reading Anne Frank: “Woah! A whole family living in an attic? Their rent must have been WAY down!”
NEW: In this interview, Chuck Schumer describes the "five buckets" Dems think are key to their possibly winning a Senate majority in 2026: housing, "the high price of food [and] food monopolies playing a major role there," electricity, "the high cost of childcare," and health care.
Zero Chucks Left to Give
Chuck Schumer now sees a path back to the majority. Can he manage his way through it?

Glady's Canteen. Hirtle's Beach, Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia. It sure didn't look like much, from the outside. But it was actually quite lovely within. Dark, polished wood. An ancient arcade game with mechanical football players. If you won, you got your penny back.

Heard a grandma at daycare pickup talking about spraying down ICE vehicles and driveways of local ICE officers with hoses because it's about to be in the negatives.
MAGA stuck their dick in the hornet's nest.

In case it needed spelling out, they're broadening the definition of "assault" to mean anything they want it to, so they can justify future murders by the hands of these soft handed thugs
"We've seen over a thousand percent increase in assaults on ICE officers, 8,000 verbal assaults on them...."
