Black shirts, no identification, assaulting a peaceful dissenting voice in a public meeting. Can't call the FBI on this kind of thing anymore.
There's going to be news about a woman illegally detained and being forcely removed from a Coeur d'Alene Idaho Town Hall meeting taking place at the high school by men that would not identify themselves wearing plain clothes because she opposed the republican viewpoints.

Y’all are joking with the dooming and glooming right? Harris has somehow kept herself clean, locked down her team, and is almost certainly aware of what she’s being asked to do. We are about to have a woman at the top of the ticket in a post-Dobbs electorate. Stop crying and buck the fuck up!

And this is how fascism wins. It convinces moderates to stop using the correct language to name what our enemy is and make no mistake. Trump and the Republicans are a fascist anti-democratic enemy to every real American who believes in the Constitution and rule of law. Do not stay silent.

A few years ago, Jon Lovett floated a theory that media treats Democrats like protagonists - to be challenged, accounted, and forced to be behave in growth-oriented ways - while the GOP are treated like antagonists - immutable, expected to disrupt, thematic obstacles.

I'm so thankful to the voters for electing me as the Democratic nominee to face Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Today is not about me. It's about thanking Clarence, whose work will be vital in bringing us all together.
This fight is not done; it actually just begun, and it's with Marjorie Taylor Greene.

yes, folks, you read that correctly.
OK. For those keeping score at home:
The judge in the RICO case that Fanni Willis's office brought against Young Thug just jailed a defense lawyer for not disclosing how he learned about a meeting that the judge and prosecutors had with a sworn-in meeting that defense lawyers were not told about.
