As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.
The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

Now that Kirk's killer seems to be caught, maybe the news could spare a moment's attention for the right wing, from the commentariat up to the GOP and president, whose immediate reaction was not mourning, but to seize the opportunity to try to incite violence against groups they hate

"political violence is never acceptable," is a phrase you don't hear politicians say after cops beat the shit out of peaceful demonstrators

What the fuck is wrong with these Dem governors honoring a fucking a nazi? Especially in a state that had a fucking school shooting the same day? What the fuck is going on?
Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment.
Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

Cops are shooting impact munitions madly. They're shooting at people who are simply moving along on sidewalks and leaving the area as they were ordered to do. No one in this video is throwing anything at police.
Mounted cops are coming up behind people and hitting them with extra long riot batons.

Incredibly chaotic scene here in downtown Los Angeles where LAPD have just charged protesters with horses while others fire munitions.

"Nobody’s going to spit on our police officers," says Trump, who four months ago pardoned people who beat police officers with pipes, flagpoles, baseball bats and 2-by-4s at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The one good thing about Trump is that he’s made clear most conservatives don’t believe in freedom, the constitution, the rule of law, democracy or any of the basic tenets of our way of life.
They only care about white supremacy and naked greed.

Two federal raids today in the same case. Lake Street in Minneapolis gets an armored vehicle assault. Bloomington gets the stereotypical agents in FBI windbreakers.

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few:
1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments state “no person” not “no citizen” regarding due process protections. The language is intentional. How do we know that? Within the Fourteenth Amendment, the Privileges and Immunities Clause specifically says “citizens” not “persons.”

This exchange is so very telling.
Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:
"I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"
