This is from the NYT masthead editorial about the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. The highlighted line invalidates not just the editorial, but the very idea of newspaper editorials crafted by the consensus of a board. Better to publish nothing at all than to publish a line like this.

Americans have a habit of trying to compare all authoritarianism to Nazi Germany. I think in some ways i think it is comforting to view authoritarianism as a foreign ideology. If you want to understand our current authoritarian moment, you need to look to our own past, not to Europe 1/x

Federal agents shot at civilians in their cars at least 15 times since July. We tracked each case.
In every instance, feds claimed drivers tried to ram agents.
But the claim often falls apart under scrutiny.

Federal immigration agents keep shooting at drivers. We tracked 15 cases since July.
After each shooting, federal agencies claimed the drivers tried to ram agents with their vehicles. But the claim often falls apart under scrutiny.

Feds now say they don’t even need a warrant to kick down your front door and also real warrants are no good at their murder scenes.
Multiple officials of the US federal government are spending their day rather blatantly obstructing Minnesota law enforcement and covering up a murder.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

If you're wondering why the Dem Party just seems inept, I think this is the best explanation.
There is no party. There is a fundraising machine masquerading as a party.

For three decades now the party has given up local organizational presence in favour of an electoral get out the vote model. The leadership is built for fund raising, stumping, and legislative work. They do not bear any semblance to the idea of local surgeries or constituency mobilization.

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

This is basically it. "How many cops would a good cop cop if a good cop could cop cops?"
we can’t use the law to force law enforcement to obey the law because people will say we’re anti law enforcement
