So the "next frontier" is that they will keep kidnapping our neighbors, terrorizing our communities, and pulling guns on us in the street, but Dems will fight for them to be unmasked while doing it? I bet they'll just put those gas masks on a little more often. They love gassing our neighborhoods.
This is good: Rep Eric Swalwell tells me House Dems are now discussing making an end to mask-wearing a precondition for ICE funding.

"When we are in the majority, the masks are coming off," he says.

This is the next frontier in anti-Trump resistance.

There’s one simple pledge Democrats can make to voters about ICE that’s easy to understand and will have broad support.

Only life update that matters is that Mom passed from lung cancer a month ago. The grief comes in waves, sometimes I'm ok, sometimes it's overwhelming.

Watching that piece of garbage Cuomo get flushed and the pieces of trash that call themselves "policy wonks" try to rationalize his loss after they failed to secure his win is giving me life right now. I almost want to turn on MSNBC to watch them cry.

Is there a bigger piece of shit in Chicago than that guy right now?

[I’m assuming Rahm Emanuel spends most of his time on the east coast, so not counting him.]
In an interview with a far-right outlet tied to Steve Bannon, Alder Raymond Lopez claims he offered to give the home address of Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson to Tom Homan during a private meeting that was organized by an associate of the Proud Boys.

Clip below ⬇️
He was a random PSL dude with seemingly no significant role in the org or recent protests. The point of introducing this Q is to stoke right-wing rage at a time when the regime is already attacking Chicago. Apparently we are cool with an alderperson siccing the federal gov't on his colleagues.

very cool that for ten years people at the heights of political commentary insisted to the point of rage that the paramount threat to free speech was “censorious” college students
after announcing that foreign students are being banned from Havard, Noem warns "this should be a warning to every other university to get your act together."

Reminder that Dachau was opened on 22 March 1933, even before Hindenburg died.

Most people don't know it was finally closed down in 1960.

We are dealing with the accumulated debt of creating a fascist sub-state to oppress entire classes of people who we accept can be designated as "criminals" or "other" as a means of abrogating due process, civil rights, and human rights, and it has been continually expanding.

Lots of people signed off on this.

Democrats consistently gave us the choice between the "lesser evil" slow path and fascist accelerationism knowing both roads ended in the same place.

Democrats helped build the infrastructure for Trump and Project 2025's fascist state every time they gave cops and ICE and border patrol and "homeland security" billions of dollars and military hardware and special powers.

Democrats jumped on the racist "crime" and immigration dog whistles a long time ago to suck up to white voters. They're as responsible for this as anybody else is.

Newsom and Carville are perfect illustrations of the Democrats' consultancy era, where "issues" like racial equity and LGBTQ rights are effectively dril "racism" dials that you turn until the maximum number of voters turn up, while actual people find this kind of cynicism viscerally disgusting
And everyone, when evaluating James Carville's winning advice, please consider what Gavin Newsom's anti-trans swing has done for his numbers:

All this Homeland Security bullshit if from the Bush Jr era. And sadly Dems have done nothing to curtail it. They basically improved upon it by bringing the tech bros into it.

Schumer calling the cops on these people instead of agreeing to fight Trump. Sums it all up.
🚨 BREAKING: 11 young people were arrested after Schumer locked the doors on us—we showed him how to fight, but he couldn’t even face us.

His cowardly deal gives Musk the keys to our government while working people suffer. If he won’t fight for us, he’s unfit to lead.

Step up or step aside.

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 is a law that never gets enough hate imo, and it's one of the many reasons I despise Bill Clinton, even though I think it was veto proof.
30 years ago, we did. They were called "local newspapers."

Then the Telecom Act of 1996 allowed essentially unlimited corporate consolidation of media outlets and they killed off local news in the space of a single generation.
Imagine if we had a newsroom in every county that focused on municipal meetings.

Lucy with the football yet again. Dems could clap and cheer for every word like his fascist lapdog loyalists will and he'll still call them "nasty disrespectful radical left-wing marxists" and afterwards the rest of the fascist propaganda machine will do the same
Jeffries sends a letter to Democrats saying "The decision to attend the Joint Session is a personal one and we understand that members will come to different conclusions. However, it is important to have a strong, determined and dignified Democratic presence in the chamber."
