David is right. What JD Vance is saying is nothing is more important than destroying this country’s basic principles and crash the economy to expel a population he doesn’t like.

There are other options! Ones that actually make this country BETTER, not WORSE.
I’ve warned about the nativist mind virus for many years. They’d destroy the economy, bankrupt the government, shred the Constitution, trample our freedoms, and imprison their own people to get what they want: not just mass deportation, but something more like ethnic cleansing

Please don’t call this “Alligator Alcatraz”

Nothing about it is cute — or normal.

Don’t soften the blow of its existence.
Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.

Well, this we can agree on, even Senator Thom Tillis is calling out his own colleagues: “Too many elected officials are motivated by pure raw politics who don’t really give a damn about the people they promised to represent on the campaign trail,” the North Carolina Republican wrote.

Can’t emphasize enough what a disgrace this whole sad episode was
Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.

As Trump viciously attacked his perceived political foes, he whipped up boos from the gathered troops directed at California leaders, including Gov. Gavin Newsom.

"That girl is an American citizen. She is fighting for her life. And Donald Trump shipped her out of her own damn country." One of several awful reasons for those gleeful videos of faceless people in handcuffs is to stop you from noticing this.

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.

I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history
