I trust outrage more than I trust tears.
This is not the way any legitimate law enforcement agency would respond to a fatality by an officer.

This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.
Yes, please pass this. There's no justification for an octopus farm to exist.
the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
An excellent analysis. (Don't be put off by the meme image preview - the writing is more serious.) We should all have a better understanding of the culture of violence that informs our responses to authority.
This FWIW is a good example of what I am talking about. I don’t think Dan Goldman is ever going to say the words “abolish ICE” and activists should work to replace him with someone who will. But also, Goldman speaking in these terms isn’t a bad thing. It is, like I said, a good start.
That sure didn't age well.
In 2026 let's try to reduce the amount of human rights violations and extra-judicial killing by the people we elected to serve the people.

Compare this to the treatment non-violent immigrants are being subjected to without a trial. Nobody should be subjected to conditions that would produce outrage if they were dogs instead of humans.
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing
BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?
GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now
THOMPSON: What does that mean?
Bullies almost always turn the threats and violence up when their power is threatened (like, for example, losing a months-long fight with a legislative body). It's not exactly bluffing, but it's definitely not coming from a place of strength.
this is literally never not accurate
...will never be defeated.
These stories illustrate how much respect the president has for the people. One isn't happening in the real world, but is it much of a stretch to imagine he would really do it if he could?
I don't think that the people of this country are going to allow themselves to be bullied into submission. The regime's policies and actions are going to get less and less popular the worse things get for the people.
Trump attacked the Smithsonian for depicting "how bad slavery was."
Meanwhile, he's pushing schools to partner with PragerU, which tells children the evils of slavery are exaggerated.
I've been sounding the alarm on them for years.
Thousands of Israelis stayed home from work, flooded city streets and blocked roads and highways across the country on Sunday, staging some of the largest anti-war protests in months as the military prepares for a major assault on Gaza City. wapo.st/4mvMVfK
Clearing encampments and throwing people in jail does NOTHING to actually get Americans off the streets.
Homelessness is not a personal failure, it’s a policy failure. Congress must pass my Housing Not Handcuffs Act with @frost.house.gov.

LEFT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has a tattoo in honor of a family member.
RIGHT: Where our government incarcerates a person who has facilitated and/or engaged in the sexual assault of over a thousand children.
As I discussed with @AnaCabrera today on @MSNBC, the Trump Administration’s callousness is re-victimizing Epstein’s victims.

"Picasso said he’d paint with his own wet tongue
on the dusty floor of a jail cell if he had to.
We have to create.
It is the only thing louder than destruction.
It’s the only chance the bard are gonna break,
our hands full of color
reaching towards the sky,
a brush stroke in the dark."

Yeah, I still remember the first time I heard a Great Blue Heron. It's funny that something that looks so elegant can have such a harsh voice. Osprey calls are a little like Bald Eagle vocalizations - a high pitched keening sound.
I really love seeing ospreys. I saw one at my house yesterday, flying pretty low. I usually hear them before I see them, but this one wasn't making any noise.
He's not going to deport Rosie O'Donnell. He's deflecting attention away from the Epstein list.
That's reprehensible.
