Democratic Party politicians everywhere need to learn from observations like this.
the biggest lie in american politics, probably only second to bush lying us into iraq, has been democrats constantly telling us "we just can't..." only to watch republicans do whatever the fuck they want over and over and over. makes me sick.

"Although federal officials said the operation was aimed at violent offenders, many of the people detained on Wednesday appeared to be day laborers and tradesmen."
Look at these ICE thugs with their masks on chasing this woman down the street. Terrifying and grotesque.

Interesting thread.
Something I wonder about is if the much ballyhooed shift of Gen Z men to Trump (and to influencers like Andrew Tate) is a perverse consequence of this. Shielded from bullying throughout school, bullies in media then seem empowering and thrilling to them rather than threatening or exhausting
it is an underrated miracle of the 21st century that we really did massively, massively reduce bullying in schools

1. Jared Kushner's trip to Moscow yesterday was not just unethical; it was illegal.
You cannot accept tens of millions of dollars from foreign governments and simultaneously conduct high-level diplomacy for the federal government.
It says it right in the Constitution.

Kushner’s Moscow mission wasn’t just corrupt. It was unconstitutional.
Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has been traveling the world to participate in high-stakes foreign policy negotiations on behalf of the president.

"White House says,...." And the Washington Post just runs it straight like statements from the White House have a track record of being totally reliable. SMH
The White House said an advanced imaging scan President Trump underwent found nothing abnormal, characterizing the check of the 79-year-old’s cardiovascular system and abdominal area as a routine procedure.
White House says Trump got MRI for ‘preventive’ cardiovascular check-up
The 79-year-old president also underwent imaging for abdominal health, and he “remains in excellent overall health,” Trump’s physician said.

For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.
If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.
