Establishment Democrats have done more to stop Zohran Mamdani than they have to stop Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Palantir or the Crypto Corruption machine currently swallowing American democracy whole.

It would be so great if Democratic Party elected officials would start acting as if they’re living under a government that will lawlessly kill or arrest them for the crime of political opposition.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.

Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.

Their inaction is deadly.

We’re announcing new legislation — the No Secret Police Act (SB 627) — to ban local/state/federal law enforcement, w/ some exceptions, from covering their faces when interacting w/ the public & require them to wear identifying info.

The secret police behavior we’re seeing destroys trust & must end🧵

an utterly senseless tragedy and incredibly costly objective lesson in why 'good guy with a gun' is vastly inferior to actual gun control laws
Here's a better description of the current investigation of what transpired last night, from SLC police in a probable cause statement:

The real message isn't even "You are right about this specific thing and that one." It's that if you're on the far right, your every thought will be coddled and indulged, and you don't need to undertake the tiresome process of being coherent. You're always right, always triumphant, always smug.

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean…

Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

How many reporters are currently working on tell-all exposés about their own organization, detailing all the acts of cowardice of their editors and publishers?

I won’t ever buy your book about Sleepy Joe Biden, but I’d absolutely devour a book about the internal collapse of the NYT or CNN.

It’s intolerable that Minnesota Democrats not only has to endure the brutal murder of political leaders, but the far-right faction that did it insists that we somehow did it to ourselves. Our society cannot operate inside the ocean of lies that Musk and his neo-Nazi cronies have created

I really think Noem’s plans to “liberate” California from its democratically elected government with military force should not have gotten lost in the news cycle but that appears to be exactly what is happening

I would like my state, every state, to mandate badges, name plates, no masks, for all law enforcement in the state. And if federal agents try to break the mandate, arrest them, then let the courts sort it out.

every protest I've ever been to(and I've been to a lot) was like 95% normies, don't let the cosplayers on the internet fool you, the people out there are the ones who drive change, not the ones serialposting about how wrongly they're doing it
Here at NYC's #NoKings protest. And it's striking how ... normie everyone is. Just average folks, sick of this shit.

Underrated story of the past decade or so is how low trust peoples' kinship networks have been shifted from direct kinship networks to online communities around cults of personality. Your typical low-trust American trusts random Hungarian anti-vaxx activists on vaccines over their RN daughter now.
