Trump Calls Shooting Victims To Rant About Tim Walz

"Dems are not capitalizing on Trump’s failures and retreats now that the public has soured on his sadistic immigration-enforcement priorities." There are a few exceptions here (Gavin Newsom especially) but that from @brianbeutler.bsky.social is correct: www.offmessage.net/p/why-democr...

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

@governorwalz.mn.gov: "The road to authoritarianism is littered with people telling you you're overreacting."

Also cannot be emphasized enough: Barack Obama successfully negotiated the shutdown of Iran's nuclear program. It exists today because Trump deliberately tore up that agreement. The deaths happening right now can be laid at his door.

a fairly deeply held belief of mine is that Americans want immigration to work the way they think it already does: you can get in legally if you’re patient on a reasonable timescale, and if you’re here long enough to put down community roots you shouldn’t get kicked out regardless

Re-upping this from @paulcrider.liberalcurrents.com www.liberalcurrents.com/democracy-de...

We can’t afford healthcare because we need that money to shoot rubber bullets into the stomachs of people who don’t want their neighbors to get kidnapped.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Literally all I’m asking for is for elected Democrats to treat the unpopular evil stuff as being unpopular and evil, because when they don’t, that signals to everyone that it’s not all that evil and it becomes less unpopular

Yeah my job is pretty cool. My uniform is a tactical vest that’s two sizes too small and a gaiter I bought in a gas station. They send me to sneak into schools to kidnap little kids because people got mad about having to press 1 for English. The president had to warn everyone to stop spitting on me.

One of the things mentioned here is that they arrived in unmarked cars and wore casual clothing, so if staff hadn’t had the courage to tell them to go away, how would you know they were federal agents and not random adult men abducting children? This should be the biggest conservative mom panic ever

People in the other site continue to enjoy the equivalent of losing an argument to autocorrect

see, the thing *i’m* genuinely worried about is that RFK will effectively ban vaccines

The situation in DTLA to which 700 Marines have been deployed is a couple dozen interfaith clergypersons leading a small crowd in prayer.

the thing about this is that these guys don’t actually want blunt talk; blunt talk would be things like “you’re a sexist and a bigot whose contributions to culture have been overwhelmingly negative, and you frequently respond to mild criticism like a child”

what people seem to believe is that there is a large number of criminal, layabout immigrants who can be easily found and deported. they support doing so snd are dismayed by the deportation of otherwise law abiding people. the problem is that the criminal group is imaginary!

do you ever think about how this is all happening for no reason at all?

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 refuse to believe this was real because it would force me to admit he made a single good post out of 100,000,000 posts

Also, he talks about how these cities are being invaded and destroyed by immigrants, which, if true, probably wouldn’t have mobs of locals swarming to protect them from federal agents. ICE are the “invaders” in this scenario.

If Gen Z really wants to dunk on millennials, they should learn about Foursquare and go around saying stuff like, "I hear you're the mayor of this Panera Bread."

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Elon successfully identified a pedo guy on his second attempt, never let your failures hold you back

sometimes I regret warping my brain being so online. but not today. oh no, not today.

There is sadly a 99.99% chance that Democratic strategists will say it’s bad to focus on Musk accusing Trump of being a pedophile

I cannot stress enough that there is a double digit percentage of the population of this nation of more than 300 million people who sincerely believe these are the two smartest men in America.

groimes you haeve to come get me at Geetmo

Elon Musk genuinely thought firing thousands of government workers and killing hundreds of thousands of people by cutting foreign aid was going to make people love him. The moment that didn’t happen, he went down a spiral he’ll never escape from and it’s kind of nice to watch.

it’s incredibly clear that trump has absolutely no idea what his admin is actually doing on basically any front
