The future of Nebraska's 'blue dot' electoral vote becomes an issue in one key midterm race
Democrats are vying to flip their party’s top House target, a Nebraska district where Kamala Harris won an electoral vote in 2024. State Republicans want to change the law.

Abolish the fucking police.
"'She is dead,'" Officer Auderer told Officer Solan, before bursting out laughing.

"'No, it’s a regular person,' Officer Auderer said, adding: 'Yeah, just write a check — $11,000. She was 26, anyway. She had limited value.'"

WATCH — @warnock.senate.gov: “They are seizing ballots, gunning down ordinary citizens, arresting journalists. All the alarm bells 🚨 are blaring. The question is, are we listening?”

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

You can understand a lot about American politics when you internalize - in your daily decision, coverage, literally anything - that a lot of things only go one way. As many Trump supporters - including ones who got dem info or addresses from Trump’s online posts - as possible can hurt or try…

Next Superbowl halftime should include a recreation of the confederate surrender at Appomattox while Jefferson Davis flees the scene dressed as an old lady.

Bad Bunny at the halftime show demonstrates not controversy, but the fact that this country is now a pluralistic modern nation containing vast cultural diversity, achieved through heroic effort against a flank of confederate-sympathizing bigots who are the most coddled little babies of all time.

ICE will respond by requiring all non-citizens to wear special badges, perhaps in a unique shape and color so everyone can recognize who's who in the streets.

The most amoral people I encounter are the ones who frame our problem as “political polarization.”
This is why I have real fucking problem with blithe criticisms of "polarization" or "congressional dysfunction." We have a Republican member blaming his colleague for being attacked.

The problem isn't polarization or dysfunction. It's the Republican Party.

The natural consequence of forcing everyone to live in a world of violence and suffering is to live in a world of violence and suffering.

You’ll notice the American state media gave President Biden a much harder time over his age whilst he was doing good work than they are with the orange felon who basically assembled an illegal army to murder people whilst he destroys the entire country out of spite.

Any consultant who tells Dems to avoid saying “Abolish ICE” needs to be fired and banished from working for the party. Any Dem in Congress who isn’t on board needs to be primaried until they lose or change their position.
YouGov is out with a new poll after ICE killed another person in Minnesota today. Abolishing ICE is now +5 among all adults, and **+12 among independents**

The budget deal in Congress will give ICE another $10 BILLION.

Absolutely not.

ICE is out of control. We must stop this rogue agency’s dangerous abuses of power, not bankroll it.
