Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

Sometimes I think the “this is just a distraction” crowd just can’t handle the chaos, and that’s their way of cooping. But this is our reality. All of it. We don’t get to pick one crisis at a time. Walk and chew gum.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

I don't think it's necessarily immoral or illegitimate to use violence for political reasons. But, there are tons of reasons why we should seek to maintain non-violent discipline as part of a mass civil resistance struggle. Movements win with mass participation. Violence decreases participation.

Judge Xinis must have scared the sh*t out of Rubio, Noem, Bondi in Wednesday's Discovery conference bc they produced Abrego Garcia in 48 hrs. That very day, she unsealed docs the Govt wanted hidden but the news media asked to see - back on May 6th! 🔥 Did she suggest more docs weren't privileged? 🎉

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy. The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.

Uhh... so a creepy lawyer whose client died extremely suspiciously just 200 hours after he showed up is saying one of the first things he demanded of his new client was a statement on whether he could hurt Trump? And then he quickly became...Trump’s lawyer? Is he confessing to a crime here, or...?
