I'm just not into this pivot thing. They killed people. Wantonly. Told people to learn their lesson.
Like, they really tried to go full fascist, and then hit pause. I don't give a fuck about this presser or any other. But there need to be investigations when Dems get power back.

New in PN: 'Abolish ICE' is imperative
"There's no amount of training that can instill basic humanity in thugs who willingly mistreat women, children, and old men. ICE agents reportedly dined at a Mexican restaurant in MN before arresting employees. How will 'training' fix that level of depravity?"

The reason Anne Frank's story has resonated with so many people over so many years is not because circumstances have to be exactly the same as her's for anyone to care, but because anything remotely like it is wrong, and societies moving in that direction should oppose it well before they get there.

If those “rules of the game” are anything short of criminal negligence trials against Bovino, Noem, Miller, and DJT, then we are just inviting other copycat politicians continuing to operate in the same way DJT has, in the future, and further eroding our democracy into extinction.
Rand Paul: "When people watch that video and the government tells them, 'Well, he was assaulting the police officers,' nobody with any objectivity believes that. No American believes he was assaulting the officers. In fact, the opposite appears to be true. So we have to get some rules of the game."
