👇🎯 It's incredible how THE explanation for Why Democrats Lost in 2024 - the one the pundits were certain about (bsky.app/profile/mcop...) a year ago, & which was the nonstop centerpiece of the National Conversation™️ for <3 straight years> - has now been completely cast aside as if it never happened.
I'm also frankly pretty floored that, in the sections of this editorial that deal with why Dems lost in 2024, there is no mention at all of inflation. According to the Times, Dems lost because of a bad favorability rating. But their favs weren't bad until after they lost!

I asked a Cuban Democrat in Florida, former Congressman Joe Garcia, how Cubans are taking this news. He said it's making the rounds, but in a muted way.
"Remember this is Vichy France," he told me, speaking of Cuban Florida. "This is occupied territory."

Just awful: A 75-year-old man just died in ICE custody, ICE has revealed in a notice to Congress.
But here's the rub: This man, a Cuban national, was first paroled into the US in 1966—nearly 60 years ago! They were set to deport him anyway.

There were a few hundred people protesting the ICE actions in California today. Most probably lived in the neighborhood that had been raided by armed, uniformed men who looked like soldiers and not police. The idea that the response to this 2,000 National Guard is fucking insane.
The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.
That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.
