Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

If you take gospel as psychological metaphor, the anti-Christ is like an antiproton. Take Christ and turn the word into its opposite meaning, reversed polarity.

My generation grew up with plenty of Spanish language pop music, and also Indian Sitar music and Gamelon, and Umm Kulthum and the Singing Nun, and 99 Luftballons and Hava Nagila, and Roberto Carlos, and the Beatles singing “Michelle Ma Belle” …

Unlikely to pass the Senate. Thune knows that IF it were to pass (by dumping the Filibuster):
1. It wd hurt Repubs almost as much
2. When Dems take over it wd be a total disaster for Republicans, allowing Dems to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act & much more.

“Russell Vought and Jeffrey Clark, were high-profile allies of Donald Trump. Vought, who has railed against “climate alarmism,” Clark, who has called climate rules a “Leninistic” plot to seize control of the economy, drafted EOs for the next Republican president to dismantle climate initiatives.”

“Trump administration veterans were plotting to obliterate federal climate efforts once Republicans regained control in Washington, according to documents reviewed by The New York Times and interviews with more than a dozen people familiar with the matter.”

I can listen to JD Vance — the most hated man in Europe after Putin and Trump — getting booed loudly at the Milan Olympics all day long. 🤣🤣

NBC News's Tom Llamas did an hour-long interview with Trump filled with softballs & filled with Trump lies that he didn't challenge.

Worst of all, he did not ask 1 single question to Trump about the Epstein files & the 38,000 references to Trump.

in real terms, #7 would give states leverage to put an end to surges, #8 would give states the ability to outright stop construction of new detention facilities, #1 and #6 would slow the rate at which DHS could train and deploy officers, #2 and #10 would likely shrink the pool of recruits

Yeah, I noticed this with an ironic chuckle - more in sorrow than in anger. I can’t wait for November. I will vote the legal maximum - once. But I will vote with determination. I will fill in those little ovals with extreme care. I'll thank the poll workers. I will vote for progressives who can win.

The morning after mass layoffs, The Washington Post publishes this as their lead editorial. The owner and publisher clearly have no idea why they are losing subscribers. Meanwhile they have destroyed a storied brand.

Kristi Noem is an absolute disgrace. And if Mike Johnson is too big of a coward to impeach her, we will!

Amazon was a great idea and provides generally good service. What is needed:
1. Pay employees well and profit-share
2. Pay appropriate taxes

Well, tax mega-churches that specifically promote extremely partisan political agendas, rather than social ideals. Example: Registering new voters = ok. Promoting specific candidates = not ok. “Souls to the polls” = ok. Hobnobbing with regime officials = not ok.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.
