I have so little sympathy for “prosecutor suddenly realizes what their job has always been.” Quitting today is obviously the best option, but following up with “I want to go back to 2016” isn’t doing what you think it is!

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit.

It's all white supremacy and greed.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

Conservatives: “We need the 2nd Amendment to protect ourselves from gov’t tyranny!”

Also conservatives: “Anyone who doesn’t immediately surrender to masked gov’t agents, particularly those who have no jurisdiction or probable cause, should face summary execution!”

NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."

“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.

there is no constituency that needs you to fall all over yourself to call Maduro illegitimate before you dare criticize Trump. Voters have been down this road before. No one thought Saddam Hussein was a nice guy. Criticism of Maduro at this stage correctly reads as a defense of Trump to most people.
Just an absolutely pathetic response from absolutely pathetic people. I was not a fan of Pelosi but even she would be better than the current crew.

matt & co’s theory of how public opinion on immigration would respond to new information was simply empirically wrong.
at this point the only reasonable conclusion is they refuse to update their priors w/ new data because the data is inconvenient for them

this is an important piece in the Atlantic: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

but the claim that there is no partisan divide in rates of antisemitism is wrong. Look at the fourth chart of this post: yalepolling.substack.com/p/we-polled-...

One of these is a racist, far-right aspiration to ethnically cleanse the West by forcibly removing all non-white people -- a goal now endorsed by the U.S. government.

The other is a sometimes ham-fisted effort to acknowledge this country's shitty treatment of indigenous people.

Not similar!
