I wrote about Democrats' obsession with calling Trump's actions a "distraction," and how it reflects their failure to understand the modern media ecosystem.
The Politics of Eternal Distraction
To some Democrats, everything Trump does is designed to distract you

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list.
I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants.
Inaction is complicity.

Our reps are about to burn federal infrastructure to the ground, the president won't acknowledge the constitution, and DHS is gestapo 2.0, but instead of talking about that pundits are wasting airtime on the health of a man who will never be in office again all to sell books for another pundit.

The house has passed a ban on coverage of gender care for all ages under Medicaid, CHIP and ACA plans. I don't know what to say to anyone this morning other than that the hundreds of thousands of people who are about to lose access to the care they need to stay alive deserve better than silence.

So you’re saying we could solve all the financial problems of 379 million of us and impact just 19 households. What an interesting fact. Fun little bit of trivia.
The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy.
These 19 households now control $2.6 trillion in wealth — almost as much wealth as the bottom 50% of American households.
If this isn't an oligarchy, what is?

I LOVE Stacey Soloman beyond all reason, which is why I was so horrified to find that her new reality show, "Stacey & Joe", is, essentially, "The Mental Load: The Movie". FREE STACEY SOLOMAN: www.thetimes.com/article/8f48...
Stacey Solomon’s reality show is triggering my feminist rage
Stacey and Joe Swash are both high-profile showbiz adults, but only one of them is finding time for fishing trips with the lads

Having ever worked for or snitched to ICE should from now on be the kind of thing you have to run away from. In ten years when antifascists out you as a former ICE agent it should be the kind of thing where you have to pack your bags, immediately move town, and change your and your family’s names
ICE is entrapping people who are here legally---telling them to report to the Immigration Office to advance their status--and then abducts them for deportation without due process. This can't be legal.
They are just mean and nasty. Cruelty is the point.

Sorry but I just don't feel comfortable sharing public toilets with transphobes. At any moment they could just demand to have a look at my gennies. The law should protect women's spaces from these creeps.

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.
He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
