Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

What we witnessed here on Tuesday in Minneapolis and what we are seeing now in Los Angeles we are going to see replicated in every blue city and blue state in the country because the federal government is at war against democratic power and the states.

People and media often say Balatro was made by 'one guy'. I feel like that unfortunately may be stoking the flames of this David vs. Goliath narrative a tiny bit No it was not 'one guy', look at the dang in-game credits

This has to be one of the most obliviously disastrous policy proposals since the Iraq War. It’s almost guaranteeing that crypto causes a financial crisis and then taxpayers bail out crypto companies. Crypto is just an elaborate scam—and this is its ultimate heist.

“I’m just going to say it, shame on any of us who throws a trans child under the bus for thinking they’re going to get elected. That child deserves our support. Don’t worry about the pollsters calling it distractions, because we need to be the party of human dignity.”

These consultants are literally just calling minorities and gay people "bad groups" now. If you don't understand this comes down to "let's crank up the racism dial" I simply don't know what to tell you.

63% of American adults had unfavorable views of Martin Luther King Jr in August 1966, per Gallup surveys 46% of Mississippi GOP voters said interracial marriage should be illegal in a 2011 PPP poll to push w/e is popular instead of trying to popularize justice is to admit you lack moral leadership

Somehow the "We need to support policies that are popular" crowd never land on the very popular polices like "taxing big corporation more," "making health care more affordable," or "paying teachers more." It's always just "be 10% more racist."

Every day that this horror continues, I think of Omar El Akkad's tweet: "One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this."

The use of inappropriate clothing and weaponry that makes them look more like military cosplay terrorists than actual government agents performing a garden-variety low-risk domestic police action is both intentional and incredibly dangerous.

NEW: @cnn.com confirms that hundreds of FBI agents have been reassigned away from criminal and counterterrorism investigations to instead work with ICE to round up migrants. The security impacts are clear — and may be why the FBI is alleged to be hiding any paper trail.
