These are the oligarchs who seek to rule every aspect of our lives, and the current US regime is doing everything possible to facilitate that because it is owned by them.

One notable thing that Pritzker and Newsom have been doing is making the case that immigrants and native-born Americans share in one another's social and economic fates. They've been elevating the visibility of immigrants as a positive national good. This is a model Dems could use more widely:
My theory of the moment: The extraordinary courage of ordinary people in places like Minneapolis is reawakening us to our social and economic ties to immigrants. It's making "love thy neighbor" cool again. That's the ultimate antidote to MAGA hate.

Thoughts on this:

it’s a Democratic Super Majority in the Senate that can end it all…

Achieving 60 seats in the Senate this Midterm would be a Herculean feat.

But they could remove them ALL!!!…

This is all performative bullshit.

Believe it when you don't see ICE in Minneapolis/Saint Paul anymore.
