It takes 3 men with AR15s for a 120 lb, unarmed female. This is how patheticly weak this Administration is. Property Damage, no Due Process, no Warents, all unconstitutional.

How can they even sleep at night?

ICE tactics in Chicago are escalating.

Crashing into a woman’s car so they can grab her is unconscionable!

Remember that Trump is _also_ wanting to shut down commissaries. That's very much a thing they want to do. Trump phrased it as "get out of the grocery business".

They are _intentionally_ pushing the troops to their absolute limits now.

Risks of state failure are rising rapidly.

If this was happening in any other country you'd have journalists and analysts discussing risks of state failure

They aren’t ”christians”. They are “American christians”.
Like American Chinese food isn’t Chinese food.
They force christianity into their mold, which holds no resemblance to the gospels whatsoever!
American Christian’s are defined more by their hatred than by love.

Many are christians. Two millennium & they still haven't figured out their god is not real, it's a fiction whose purpose is to control their thoughts, actions & lives. They are brought up from childhood, NOT, to get it.
They haven't "got it" in 2000 years, it's not looking good for any time soon.

Indiana, nice state you’ve got there. Be ashame if you lost federal funding. You’d better get to redistricting now.

I personally didn’t think Bernie was too radical…I just didn’t know if he was electable. Turns out, yeah, probably would have got more people out.

That’s what first past the post does for you, Pete. Get some electoral reform and start using proportional representation. Stop the gerrymandering.

I am in District 1 of Colorado, and it is utterly non-competitive. My chosen party benefits from this but I do not think it is healthy for the Democratic Party, the district or myself

Fewer than 1 in 10 of our Congressional races are considered competitive - in a country that's politically more or less 50-50.

This is madness. And it doesn't have to be this way.

It is happening. tRUMP lied to you when he said he knew nothing about it. Hundreds of his supporters helped write it. Vance and Vought are just two of the big names associated with Project 2025.
