Confronted Congressman Tom Suozzi, one of seven Democrats casting the decisive votes to increase ICE funding by $10,000,000,000.

The idea that the country would look any different with Tom Homan in charge instead of Greg Bovino is laughable. Watch a single Tom Homan clip!
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
The year is 2003. I’m 17 years old. I’m watching Democrats fail to appropriately oppose an illegal war for oil.
The year is 2026. I’m 40 years old. I’m watching Democrats fail to appropriately oppose an illegal war for oil.
if i was running a political party and every time my opponents held power they started illegal wars for oil and crashed the economy i would simply say that repeatedly
Im seeing discussions about consultations with congress, authorizations of force etc. I have to say this transcends any of what I would call sub constitutional technicalities. The president has gone to war with a foreign power and, it seems, kidnapped a foreign head of state on the basis of nothing.
hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison
Whether attempting regime change in Venezuela is smart or just is not the question. Many will try to make it the question.
The question is whether the President can start wars without the authorization of Congress. The question is whether the armed forces are still loyal to the Constitution.
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.
i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
Cruelty is the point
this ballroom is the best evidence that trump doesn’t intend to leave
Georgia’s 2026 ACA marketplace window shopping began October 1, meaning people are already seeing next year’s premiums spike because of expiring tax credit enhancements. A typical 60-year-old couple making $85,000 in Georgia will face a $24,900 increase in annual premiums. (1/4)
MAGA should honor Charlie Kirk today by playing clips of his speeches, his show, and reading his tweets.
Especially the ones about Black people, women, immigrants, MLK, Muslims, gun violence, George Floyd and LGBTQ+ people.
Canceling Jimmy Kimmel show is not about Charlie Kirk, just like going after universities was not about antisemitism and occupying DC was not about fighting crime.
BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — Brazil's Bolsonaro sentenced to more than 27 years in prison after Supreme Court panel convicts him of attempting coup.
Charlie Kirk was a fascist and paid agitator for powerful interests who gleefully spread dangerous misinformation, targeted vulnerable groups and academics for harassment, glorified the violent, helped fuel the Jan 6 insurrection, and ultimately contributed the impoverishment of our discourse.
Someone recently said to me that things will get worse before they get better, but that is not true. There is no guarantee that anything gets better. Things can just continue getting worse and worse.
I can't stop thinking about that today.
Dave Portnoy tweet saying ‘absolutely disgusting and disturbing video from Charlie Kirk shooting today. Hoping for the best for him and his family. Anybody who is happy about this is a disgusting human.’
Pop Crave Tweet: ‘Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy says he hopes a missile hits Greta Thunberg’s boat as she sails away with aid: “I hope they hit a f*cking, like, a missile on her boat. Knock that boat down. Greta or whatever her name is”
This explains it better than I can
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk:
"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."
ABC News agrees to blur out the faces of federal agents, presumably as a condition for getting to "ride along" on ICE raids in Chicago. Shameful obedience. abcnews.go.com/world-news-t...
again, conservatives -- and some dems like rahm emanuel -- think just seeing a black person on the street means that the area is unsafe and a sign of crime
Trump blasts out conspiracy theories directly on social media and live on TV during press events carried by every cable network. Obama releases statements in the voice of his spokesperson through his office. Guess which method gets more attention?
Is Trump Finally Crumbling?
The Epstein controversy seems to be Trump's kryptonite with MAGA, and for the sake of our faltering democracy, it's up to the majority and Democrats to exploit it mercilessly.

Summer used to be when SCOTUS took time off from *issuing* decisions but apparently now it’s when SCOTUS takes time off from *explaining* decisions
