so are we going with “the curse of harry the k’s” or “the curse of taryn hatcher”

It's not enough for Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales to end their campaigns -- they both need to resign or be expelled from Congress, today. Their should be zero tolerance for sexual abuse and harassment on Capitol Hill

"The way some of these other immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace... I think what’s going on in our country — what we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants, is really unfortunate and it’s really sad." - Charles Barkley on CBS
Gonna be a big “people who don’t do politics finding out the politics still do them” week.
We were able to get the District tickets for DC residents a few days before Opening Day last year. They were $25 each, more than the typical $5-9, but still decent!
One of the better ideas I’ve seen. Scott Galloway with his “Resist and Unsubscribe.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.
The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.
Vibes are gonna be super low this season. What are we doing?
The Atlantic finally catching up with what some of us have been saying for *years*
This kind of cowardly response was also typical during the civil rights movements of the 1960s -- the white moderates who want to "ease tensions" that MLK destroyed in his Letter From Birmingham Jail
If this was all supposed to be about going after the worst of the worst criminals, why are we not locking up the ICE and DHS agents who are murdering defensiveless civilians? This was never about curtailing crime from undocumented immigrants. It was always about authoritarian control.
Not a current player, but Jimmy Rollins reposted a video about it.
Renee Good’s wife made a joke about an ICE agent’s masculinity and about thirty seconds later she was dead.
Alex Pretti stood between an ICE agent and a woman he was shoving and about thirty seconds later he was dead.
There’s a pattern.
Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.
“The federal government is no longer bound by law. If agents of the state may kill people in public without being investigated; if they have—again, per VP Vance—“absolute immunity” from prosecution then we are living in an authoritarian regime.”

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):
-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.
You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.
Democrats can and must make it clear there will be trials and anyone even somewhat associated with ICE will face them. Maybe give a quit-your-job deadline on appeasement and give people 72 hours. I don't know. But currently the plan is to let them murder us in the street and get away with it.
Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

Nick Foles would disagree.
The op-ed you hoped you'd never read in your lifetime
In Caracas, we bomb and kill Venezuelans who supported the Maduro regime
In Minneapolis, we shoot Venezuelans who fled the Maduro regime seeking a better life here
Make it make sense
It most definitely is
Not only that, he is just a genuine funny, good dude. And great dancer. 🕺
I'm never going to forgive Phillies management for extending Aaron Nola last year rather than saving the cash for Ranger.
