To what end? Do their constituents vanish like wisps without the party? Does the conservative media cease manipulating without the party? What would stop them from reconstituting under a new name? Et cetra, et cetra, et cetra.
Abolish the Republican Party.

DHS Shooting Victim in Minneapolis Was a ‘Sweet’ and ‘Principled Person’
Zeteo spoke with two doctors who worked with Alex Pretti, a nurse who is the latest victim of Trump’s violent invasion of Minnesota.

"Faith based adoption" is the opposite of religious liberty. It requires people to be of particular religions in order to adopt. Religious liberty means people can hold any religious belief even an atheistic belief.

Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."

This comes out eight months later. How many people have to read an obvious, overt violation of the fourth amendment and not report it before we declare everyone in the organization complicit with criminal activity?

AI will ruin the internet. As false narratives increase, people will abandon the technology in favor of something more reliable. It begins with disinformation, then scam about manufactured natural disasters, and then an overabundance of viruses.

You think disinformation is bad now?
Wait until you hear about "AI swarms" and how they have the potential to upend democracy across the globe

Advances in artificial intelligence are creating a perfect storm for those seeking to spread disinformation at unprecedented speed and scale. And it’s virtually impossible to detect.

Obviously. He drummed up the notion of a rigged election, he riled up his base, he invited to the capital, and he sent them to Congress. Like throwing chum into the water.
Jack Smith: "Our assessment of the evidence is that [Trump] is the person most responsible for what happened on January 6. He caused what happened, it was foreseeable to him — and then, when it happened, he tried to exploit it."

While not incorrect, there is more to this. Good faith politicians are vital, but what has truly undermined the system is the increased centralization of the political parties. Congressmen need to be independent actors lest they conspire with or be dominated by the Executive.
When my students ask how we got here I say the laws are not self-executing. Our contract with our government only works when we elect people of good faith into office
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Even if this person had done something criminal, this treatment discredits the entire agency. DHS/ICE demonstrates contempt for legitimate governance, which demands discipline and restraint.

Increment the Constitutional Violation counter again. Didn't Donald insist he was "going to bring the Constitution back"? Whatever that was supposed to mean.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social Are you fools ready to impeach yet?

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Squandering decades of soft power and diplomacy. The next era will not treat us kindly.

Like. What the fuck, Trump is such a buffoon..
He's insulted every country in the room..
He's lied more times than you can count..
He's rambled on about vendettas & personal grievances against everyone..
Immigrants have been the reason for US tech prosperity..

What a sad state of affairs we find ourselves in where government agents need not have standards of conduct. Do not think this is an aberration either. Republicans have consistently opposed imposing standards on police long before this administration.
KARL: Watch this video of a woman who says she's disabled getting dealt with by ICE. What do you think?
McCAUL: Well, the optics aren't good
K: They smashed her windows & threw her to the ground
M: It appears to be a little overzealous, but what about the actions of murderers & drug traffickers?
