Any DoJ attorney who participates in this investigation should suffer professional and social shunning that makes it effectively impossible to continue to work as an attorney.

we are still years out from the Democratic primary, and I think it is genuinely deranged that there’s people out there who believe there’s no other choice and thus we must rally around the flag of, all people, Gavin Fucking Newsom to save the republic

I think Democrats should focus on kitchen-table issues

Such as whether parents will be shot dead by masked government agents and thus be unable to eat breakfast with their children at the kitchen table anymore

Understanding Trump means grasping that he sees our government and our country the way private equity sees a company it takes over. You crack it open, extract all the value from it as fast as you can, line your pockets with it, and walk away.

If it means nothing to you, destroying it is irrelevant.
This is happening right now. I guarantee you he said "you know I will do absolutely everything and anything I don't care what happens to my country and you know it"
Q: Are Greenland's limits going to be respected?

TRUMP: Well we're gonna see what happens with Greenland. We need Greenland for national security. If we don't go in Russia is gonna go in & China is gonna go in. And there's not a thing that Denmark can do about it. But we can do everything about it

The thing that really makes Minneapolis different, other than the fact that they straight up murdered someone, is that they've dropped all pretense that this is just about immigration. The state has declared war on its own people, or at least those people who live in cities.

RFK Jr is engaged in a systematic attack on the very notion that the government should engage in policy to prevent easily preventable deaths and diseases due to vitamin deficiencies and vaccination and anyone that doesn't see that is choosing not to as an act of will

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

Very funny that the guy who turned the east wing of the White House into a pile of rubble one Friday is criminally investigating the federal reserve chairman about a building renovation

Republicans somehow managed to sprint from “we’re trying to protect women in sports” straight to defending a woman being shot in the head three times at point blank range for trying to drive away from a masked thug.

Fascists are half-assing the propaganda. NY Post cover tries to make you think Renee had it coming because Rebecca “taunted” ICE and told her to “drive.” This is only for the pig people who already want us dead.

if a Democrat had said “I can’t wait to host the oil companies at my 90,000 square foot golden self-commemorative ballroom that I tore down the White House and solicited $300 million in bribes to build” it would literally be considered the worst scandal and gaffe in human history
REPORTER: The Capital Planning Commission is concerned the 89,000 square foot ballroom is going to dwarf the rest of the rest of the WH. Do you worry about that?

TRUMP: No no. People love the ballroom. We need it. If we would've had the ballroom today, we could've had all the oil companies there.

I deflate a little bit each time I see a Leftist activist or academic "admit" that yes, "woke culture" perhaps did go "too far" in this or that historical moment. "Woke culture" is not a thing that actually exists. It is a slur/motivated analytic. You look small-brained when you act like It Lives!

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

It's very funny how the ideology and propaganda of the Trump administration is all about male-coded, macho work returning to the US, but manufacturing is shriveling and the only thing growing is care work

This fucking worm justifies lethal force as self-defense against a poet driving away in an SUV but thinks Ukraine shouldn’t fight back against Russian invaders or that he should defend his own wife against racist attacks.
JD Vance: "Ramming an ICE officer with your car -- that's what justifies being shot ... the reason this woman is dead is because she tried to ram somebody with her car and that guy acted in self defense"

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

since they lose their healthcare if they join the U.S., Greenlanders should hold out for at least $100k
Have they considered some beads, and maybe some lightly used blankets?
Wait wait wait, while Americans have to pay hundreds of billions of dollars in new tariffs, Trump is going send over $10,000 to each person in *Greenland*?????????

This is a joke right ?

We've put together a frame-by-frame analysis of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good, at the same time that Vice President JD Vance held a press conference stressing that what you're going to see in this video did not happen.
We've analysed this video of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good yesterday in Minneapolis frame-by-frame to highlight the positioning of the gun and phone in the ICE agent's hands.
