We're gonna win
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

They're so ANGRY that we take care of each other, and not just angry.
So CONFUSED by it.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

it’s pretty insane to think about how the dumbest most violent pieces of shit in the country have been given the message that they can kill with impunity if they join this one government agency

You’re watching the administration lose control of the narrative in real time.
The more they show their supporters that they don’t give a shit about their gun rights, the worse it gets.
I’ve seen over a dozen right-wing commentators call out the propaganda. That’s progress.

The letter from Bill and Hillary Clinton to James Comer explaining their refusal to testify in his Epstein investigation is really remarkable, not like any letter of this genre I've seen. It's signed by them, not a lawyer, and the arguments are not legal ones. Reprinted from their X account:
