I’d be interested to see the same analysis done with household square footage as the variable instead of income.
With Miller running the place what is Susie Wiles even doing at the White House?
I keep thinking about the GOP insistence that we couldn’t remove monuments to treasonous confederates because of their historical importance.
Well, given that this administration has been looking for a war against cartels on the other side of the southern border…
Every fired civil servant to be invited and given a ceremonial sledgehammer.
If Democrats really want to put pressure on Republicans, they should start putting out plans for how they’ll use Trump’s new unitary executive powers to bypass GOP senate map advantages in the coming decades.
The first NK protest in my city brought out teachers and students pissed about attacks on education, librarians and readers pissed about book bans, people pissed about foreign aid defunding, etc., and all marched led by shouts of “Free, free Palestine”, and “trans rights are human rights”.
Not at all. My intended point was that the pundits who want to tamp down on issue activism for fear of alienating people in the protect-democracy camp don’t understand that people on the ground are not, in fact, feeling alienated by it.
I think a lot of the actual people who are showing up to No Kings events are there for the “defend democracy“ part, know they’re new to this type of thing, and wouldn’t ever call out trans or Palestinian activism at the event, regardless of their own opinions, because they want a cohesive coalition.
No such thing as a criminal phalluny.
As the spouse of a lawyer who has worked both 80-hour/wk and 40-hour/wk jobs at firms, I suggest that firms hire twice as many lawyers at 40-hour/wk salaries, and watch their work product improve along with their mental and physical health and success at meeting deadlines.
Not to mention all the federal law enforcement agents that Stephen Miller has pulled off of their crime-fighting jobs so that they can assist ICE.
I’ll never look at the word “crochet“ the same way.
Now would be a good time for Democrats to promise zero funding for universities that accept the deal when they get power back. Give the universities something to stand on in the face of GOP state legislatures.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.
I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Speaking to middle schoolers everywhere.
Awww. Reminds me of the time a cafe owner asked us how our food was, and our toddler responded, “Great! This place is even better than McDonald’s!”

“This is a movement…This is an achievement of a whole society…I am just one person.”

The beautiful humility of Venezuelan pro-democracy leader, Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.

Stephen Miller is murdering Venezuelans and Colombians in cold blood bc he believes it helps his propaganda campaign to paint Latinos as dangerous.

This is terrifying!

ICE breaks into this woman’s car in the pick-up line at West Loop Elementary school in Chicago and detains her before she can pick her kids up from school. (They were eventually let go after showing their documents)

This is Trump’s America.
The 9th circuit panel handling the appeal of the Portland TRO seems to think, “Yes,”to this hypothetical, at least for Trump.
Perry turns to the fact that drugs have been dealt in Chicago for decades in violation of federal law.

Perry asks if that means "the president has had the authority for decades to deploy the National Guard here?"

(I also believe she prefaced this hypothetical with "riddle me this.")

RFK Jr: "Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a pregnant woman at 8 months pregnant -- she's an associate professor at the Columbia Medical School -- and she is saying 'F Trump' and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta. The level of Trump Derangement Syndrome is now a pathology."
