Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis.

Either the US has a constitution, or it does not.
The Maduro regime posed no threat to the people of the United States. The Trump regime is illegally going to war without authorization.
It’s a distraction from his corruption and his pedophilia scandal.

The framing of these stories shouldn't be "hey mass public, here is advice for how you too can bootstrap your way to early retirement ", but more accurately and productively as "hey rich person ruining society- observe how this other rich person is minding their own business, and happy!"
The secret to early retirement; dine out rarely, fly economy and be a Google employee making $390,000/year married to a fellow Google employee 17 years older than you who likely makes twice as much as you.
37-year-old quit her $390,000 Google job after saving up $1.5 million—see the 'no buy checklist' that helps her spend less

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

All of the pilfering, vandalism, and outright death caused by DOGE cuts, and all of the thefts from the future by illegally stopping research grants, didn't save a penny, Trump spent the money and more on corruption and incompetent ICE goons.
Total federal spending is up +7% in 2025 over 2024 year-to-date to Oct 20.
The story that the fed govt is tightening its belt is contradicted by its own real-time expenditure data. Admin spectacularly hammering some things but raising spending elsewhere.
Was -7% just after Inauguration Day.

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended
More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Asking "did Donald trump just declare war on the american left" is like reporting on the most recent Russian military action and by asking if they have just declared war on Ukraine.
While many advocate for an end to the violence across the political spectrum, Donald Trump defines the crisis differently: it’s about the American right under siege.
Did Trump Just Declare War on the American Left?
After Charlie Kirk’s tragic killing, the President speaks not of ending political violence but of seeking political vengeance.

Calling a late Friday press conference for an "important campaign announcement" and that announcement being "I am going to continue my campaign" is honestly hilarious. Eric Adams cannot help but be himself.
For what it's worth, Laura Nahmias, who would not be publishing this if she felt she were being had, is now reporting Adams is in fact staying in.
