Indeed. Complaints about redistricting are invalid. Republicans did it everywhere and invalidated a Constitutional Amendment so they could do it on explicitly racial lines.

There are two choices: use the same levers of power as Republicans do, or let them win. There is no "principled" opposition.

You can't even get a single conservative to admit Republicans brought this onto themselves huh? Just a completely intellectually bankrupt movement. Top to bottom from the highest elected official to the random talking head to the rando anon person on social media its all trash.

one of the ways the mid to late 20th century political world has distorted the historical memories of even sophisticated observers is in the idea that you can achieve major transformations of american political life through something like bipartisan consensus

No we should definitely tilt the playing field against the fascist party. There's a pretty strong case that we should de facto ban the Republican Party.

Agreed. We should not gerrymander as revenge. That implies that we wouldn’t gerrymander if they voluntarily didn’t. We should gerrymander because it’s good when Democrats win elections, and if there’s a danger of revenge, we can just congressionally ban gerrymandering nationwide. With our majority.

Republicans already gave ICE & CBP $170 billion for lawless immigration enforcement last year. Now, their top priority is to give them another $70 billion when Americans can’t afford healthcare, gas, groceries or rent? What an outrage.

The National Disgrace and Danger of Kash Patel The FBI Director is a national embarrassment — and desperate to keep his job.

The fact Patel either doesn’t have or doesn’t listen to advisors who could tell him that flying a govt Gulfstream jet to a place literally called “Boondoggle Ranch” is all you need to know about his FBI tenure and level of talent he’s surrounding himself with. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-nation...

This is genuinely one of the foundational copes of the modern conservative movement, a stabbed-in-the-back narrative about why the US lost Vietnam

The first step towards "feeling honored" is to conduct yourself honorably.

The fact that dishonorable men are routinely lauded and rewarded does not change that essential truth, as shown by the most powerful man and the richest man both being profoundly insecure and self-loathing.

This is how Democrats say Oversight Republicans are trying to quash the Epstein investigation The committee chair has started hosting frequent “roundtables,” where his members can’t force subpoena votes.

The Oversight Committee exists to hold the executive branch accountable.

Replacing hearings with roundtables to block members from forcing votes isn't about facilitating dialogue — it's the Chairman undermining the committee's own authority.

In both foreign policy and economic policy, the core belief of Trumpism is that there is some button one can press to instantly and easily solve any problem, and every political leader this country has ever had was simply too cowardly to press it. That’s it.

i mean, who among us

yeah, that’s right, albeit with caveat that i think x is worse than 4chan. you take the atmosphere of a particularly nasty 4chan subboard and then scale it up to a website where heads of state and ceos of leading corps all post

This is something I've been hoping Dems do for some time. Hold the Senate GOP accountable for every incompetent the confirmed, and the destruction of American lives that resulted, but also for the oversight not exercised, especially over Iran.

ICE detained more than 70 Minnesota children, data reveals Immigration officials detained more than 70 Minnesota children between Dec. 1 and March 10, a Sahan analysis of court records and federal deportation data shows.

70 Minnesota children.

Delta Air Lines, who likely flew nearly all of these kiddos out of MSP, could publicly condemn this and end the practice tomorrow, as the airlines did in 2018 with family separation, but it’s easier to stay silent.

one Neat thing is the gop transformed from a party funded by a bunch of multi millionaires and billionaires to a party where like only two dozen guys keep all the lights on and all of them will have been brazenly committing crimes for four years when we retake power

So many impeachments. So, so many impeachments need to happen before we can move forward.

Add "farmers in the American West whose farms are only viable because they are given incredibly scarce water resources for 5 cents on the dollar" to the car dealers and realtors — destructive, unproductive conservative groups that we need to reduce the influence of when we're back in power.

the pointless, militarized occupation of Washington DC continues with these armed, camo'd figures constantly patrolling the safest, calmest areas of the city. Glad my corner grocery store and the steps leading in to Kalorama Park are so heavily guarded

It is a bit comical that the people putting out the neofascist manifesto and declaring intent to rule over us are essentially selling data analytics and yet

We Need to Prepare for the Mammoth Task of De-Trumpification The damage he and his cronies have wrought could take decades to repair, particularly when it comes to science and public health.

The task of de-Trumpification of science and public health will take a generation and a "Marshall Plan" to rebuild. Without a bold, expansive vision to guide us, there is no coming back. Small-bore, poll-tested versions of the future will not help us. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

hell, one might ask: have you truly established a sovereign jewish state if you are so dependent on a bunch of eschatologically minded christians?

More scandals than one can imagine. We're innundated w/ corruption, avarice, greed & downright illegal stunts day in & day out; so many that we can't even keep track. Once Dems are back in power I hope there's a list...a big, long, beautiful list; they can go after each and every one of these.

Qualified immunity is probably the worst legal doctrine in the country. It is a blank check for cops to abuse, even kill, citizens, and unless their actions are *exactly* like a previous abuse found to be illegal, they'll receive immunity.

ICE Snatches Star of Painting That Celebrates Modern America Criselda Vasquez’s father, subject of her acclaimed “New American Gothic,” was detained on his way to work.

A granddad who was the subject of a celebrated reimagining of one of America’s most iconic paintings has been detained by ICE.

based on what we know of the Supreme Court's qualified immunity orders, the likely explanation is "judges appointed by Democrats sided with victims of police brutality over violent cops"

Sotomayor has written about the "asymmetry" of these orders
