The only way for Dems to fight this is to draw up a list right now of GOP lawmakers they plan to prosecute if they get back into office in 2028. Right now the pressure is all one way; it’s asymmetric warfare.

DOGE has been trying to take over the Government Accountability Office, but GAO is a legislative branch agency not under executive control. It’s not subject to Executive Orders and has refused DOGE’s request to embed a team inside.

If you have to repeatedly break the law to arrest those you claim have broken the law, you’re not enforcing the law. ICE has morphed into a terrorizing Gestapo-like goon squad. They must be held accountable.

ICYMI from last night: expect a cave from Democrats on a bill that weakly regulates stablecoins & would allow Big Tech firms to create their own private currency. Senate Dems had backed off when Trump launched a stablecoin, but gave up leverage for an anti-Trump amendment that's designed to fail.

Hearing that this was definitely temporary. Gallego and Warner in particular are in deep negotiations to make a deal with Republicans to move this stablecoin bill forward, while Trump and his family corruptly profit from stablecoins. If you're a constituent, Gallego and Warner need calling.

If another country cut off our supply of vaccines or unleashed contagious vaccine-preventable diseases on us, we would call it what it is: bioterrorism. Just because it’s a Kennedy doing it to us from inside the house does not change that.

The position of the Democratic leadership is that the gop is just going through a Trump phase. They said the same thing when the party was led by Reagan and Bush II and they don’t understand THIS is the party, THIS is the fight. Forever.

If you kidnap and disappear a 4-year-old with stage 4 cancer, you should at a minimum spend the rest of your life behind bars. If you do it as part of an ethnic cleansing program, you should do your hard time at the Hague.

Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”

I was having a good conversation with some NICE Marxists (i like nice Marxists on here even when we disagree, thank you to them) on the relevance and importance of redefining the commonly used phrase "working class" (which currently is used to mean lower-income) as all wage workers.

When people break the law, and their actions are righteous and appropriate, we should applaud them. When people abide by or enforce the law, and their actions are repugnant, we should condemn them. We should never pretend the law is a moral dividing line.

If you’re on the fence about supporting us for your books over Amazon, would it help to know we didn’t sponsor the White House’s Easter Egg Roll last week like Amazon?

"almost every night since Oct 2023, even during his hospitalization, Pope Francis made a daily phone call to the only Catholic parish in the Gaza Strip to check on their safety and offer words of prayer and support. His last public act, the day before he died, was to call for a ceasefire in Gaza."
