Andrew Cuomo is afraid he'll lose, so his donors want you to fear me. His SuperPAC just sent out a mailer that artificially lengthened and darkened my beard. This is blatant Islamophobia—the kind of racism that explains why MAGA billionaires support his campaign.

The sole criteria I will be voting on in the 2028 primary is which candidate credibly promises to put the largest number of Trump officials in prison. I do not care about any of their other policies.

Floridas’s child-welfare agency — in a reversal of a 30-year policy — is now willing to turn minors over to ICE. This 17-year-old was taken from his foster home in handcuffs and shackles. www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

This is a meaningless distinction. “Arrest” is from the French “arrêter,” to stop. If they can detain you for however long it takes a cop to show up, that is already functionally an arrest.

Something that I think weighs on many is that everyone knows that if ever the Democrats were fully in power at the Federal level again, they will not immediately move to reverse what has been destroyed and build something new. This reality just sits out there like an anchor.

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

This is the fourth announcement that’s flip-flopping on this back and forth in just 3 days. They just put the fence yesterday after saying they wouldn’t after saying they would. Staggering level of confusion and incompetence, evidently, at the Park Services.

This is so jarringly unAmerican that I sort of hope it wakes some normies up. It is occurring in a context where military-style equipment is being used to enforce immigration roundups and conveys the notion that we are increasingly living in a police state.
