Fuck Gavin Newsom. There’s 3 years to come up with someone better and Democrats better find them.
What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy

Gov. Gavin Newsom: ‘I disagree’ with calls to abolish ICE
The 2028 presidential contender came out against calls to dismantle ICE after an agent fatally shot a Minneapolis woman.

liberals are back to blaming their own inability to accept Harris backed a genocide and anti trans positions which is what lost her the election on the victims
Expect to see much more of this as it becomes more clear elected democrats are not just complicit with fascism they are fascists

This question matters because your toothless, colorblind whataboutism is what led you to not vote for Harris, personally ushering in the violent white supremacist regime that Project 2025 prescribed, and it will lead you to continue to make morally rotten choices that harm others.

The charges against protestors announced today by Bondi were very clearly done with producing #content as the first priority and law enforcement a distant second. The decision to wave mugshots around is already harming DOJ's credibility in court www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/u...

You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

I have a feeling the Minnesota protester photos released by DHS are going to be used in exactly the same way. Heroes, all.
In an Irish context this was called ‘felon setting’; a favourite tactic of Dublin Castle to punish via RIC/DMP visits to employers & landlords. But after #EasterRising Irish Times eagerly leaped to print detailed lists leaked to them, not realising how this would soon be a roll of honour #spéirgorm

See, the “immigration crisis,” “border emergency” etc - it’s 100% made up. There is NO crisis except panicked, violently racist white people. That’s it.
All this suffering and death is caused by that and only by that. The rest is bullshit: an excuse to grab power by a white supremacist regime.

Tom Suozzi looks fucking terrified when he is confronted by actual human beings who want to hold him accountable for his votes that have lead to people being murdered in the streets.

As far as I know, Tom Suozzi here still does not have a primary challenger in his district (NY-3 on Long Island).
The filing deadline is April 6 for the primary on June 23, and if there's a remotely progressive town council member or PTA president in that district, this is the time to make a move.

I would rather a fucking republican in her seat. At least the republican is gonna be straight up honesty fascist and not give me this shit
Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (one of 7 Democrats who just voted to fund DHS) defends her stance.
Argues funding for ICE "is not the question." Instead, Senate Democrats have leverage for various demands.
"I think they could negotiate to replace Noem with someone that doesn't skirt the filibuster."

For reference, Minneapolis's "Metro Surge" was 25x larger than Chicago's Midway Blitz - ten times as many agents in a city almost a third the size.
The Springfield metro is only 136,000 people. A 1000-agent surge will be the equivalent of TWO HUNDRED MIDWAY BLITZES at once. Utter insanity.
