I’ve sometimes fallen into the trap of thinking that complementing a creative person for their work is less sophisticated or desired than discussion or debate about it but very often the best thing you can say to them is hell yeah and that doesn’t make you dumb it just makes you nice

🧵to enjoy - Hakeem Jeffries is a problem. He stymies his caucus. How many members might like to come out for impeachment but fear being punished? How many of them, in their hearts, want to fight for our democracy?
So… all the people who were telling us to stop criticizing any Dems — do you believe me that Hakeem Jeffries is a problem yet?

Don't know how many different ways I can say these are actual Nazis, minus the bureaucratic skill and esthetics
Trump goes on another racist rant about Somalis: "Ilhan Omar should be thrown the hell out of our country, and most of those people -- they have destroyed Minnesota. It's a hellhole right now. Those Somalians should be out of here. They have destroyed out country ... go back to your own country."

One of the most striking things about these ICE/BP raids is not that they’re all kitted out for war while going after people who didn’t do anything wrong and don’t pose a threat, but that they always bring a camera crew.

Usually, re-dedication ceremonies are held in broad daylight, with pomp and circumstance and a heads up to the press to cover said event with smiling politicos and speechless honorees….not marked with a “hey! look what we did when no one was looking!” tweet after business hours.

The agents are acting out this alienated incel fantasy of being able to pluck perceived enemies from public space and roughly, physically demean and ritually humiliate them in front of a live audience of passers-by.

Keep this in mind as the Hegseth Signal call gets back in the news.
The material need NOT be “classified” for criminal liability to attach (but hard legal standard to meet - “gross negligence”)
Further investigation to see, among other things, if this method had been used before is necessary
And the likelihood that this material is, in fact, classified is great

There is virtually no fed criminal law for wealthy people in America right now. Doesn’t exist. Trump’s DOJ either drops their charges or he pardons them. Anyone can buy their way out of prison for the right price on any charge, with crime victims left shattered with no justice.
