Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

ICE are not making our streets safer. Trump is not reducing crime. American citizens are being violently targeted by federally-directed agents and we should not act like this is just another presidency.

This is a VERY well crafted lawsuit.
1) Plaintiff is natural born.
2) He was detained 2X in a fast-growing part of Alabama, not in a city that Brett Kavanaugh could be easily duped into believing was all migrants.
3) Unwarranted detentions were on private property.
4) He showed Real ID both times.

Right. Zohran explicitly links his economic populism w/his attack on Trump's authoritarian abuses, which also hurt working people. Some commentators are trying to only elevate the former, to push Dems away from taking on Trump frontally, but they're (deliberately?) missing the real innovation here:
Mamdani “doesn’t allow that there’s a conflict between emphasizing economic populism and taking on Trump’s authoritarianism.” As @gregsargent.bsky.social suggests, there’s no reason to assume this synthesis wouldn’t work just as well in swing territory

Why are Republicans secretly glad that because of the shutdown no jobs report will be released on Friday, even if they won't admit it? This is why 👇
CNBC: "Very disappointing. It's a weak number. This is private sector jobs for September. The total comes in -32,000. And that was a surprise because economists were looking for an increase of 51,000. Also, the revision was not good. August now showing -3,000 compared to the initial read of 54,000"
