Well said!
There are far more aggressive legal moves D's could be making right now...constitutional challenges, injunctions, discovery that would make agencies sweat. Not a lack of options. They lack appetite. You don’t always lose because you’re outmatched. But you DO always lose when you won’t fight.

And, the sheep say “yes, please.”
They want us working earlier and til we die to pay for their tax cuts for the rich. Supervillains.

Given what is in this drop, I can’t imagine how bad it gets—why isn’t anyone being held accountable??

It needs to get stronger and louder
The deaths of Alex Pretti and Renée Good are devastating and deeply troubling. The strong national response this week shows Americans will not let these losses be ignored or swept under the rug. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/week-progr...
Our Wins Of The Week
While ICE’s reign of terror on the streets of Minneapolis has been horrific, Alex Pretti’s murder on Saturday by ICE agents has broken through in ways news stories rarely do.

If all of congress doesn’t shut this administration down immediately, every single incumbent should be voted out.

If the Epstein files are this vile and incriminating already, just imagine all the stuff they’re still hiding.

What will we do when he orders the FBI to raid election facilities in key states in November?
The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day.

This is all part of the plan
Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

It is very concerning that our leadership doesn’t know what to do except for call for “something’s gotta happen.”
Rand Paul: "There has to be an investigation. I don't know who trusts an investigation done by DHS when they're the ones calling this person an 'assassin,' a 'domestic terrorist,' saying he was assaulting police. How can they be in charge of an independent investigation? Something's got to happen."

But, Ashli Babbitt is a hero to these people is all you need to know.
ABC: Noem said Pretti committed an act of domestic terrorism. Stephen Miller labeled him a domestic terrorist. Does the president agree?
LEAVITT: I have not heard the president characterize Mr Pretti in that way

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.
It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

I say again, this does not even approach a scintilla of the accountability that is required. These are PR moves.

Exactly right.
Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.
Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.
Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.
Every possible angle.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Isn’t a bruise technically considered “internal bleeding”?
The Regime is stating that the ICE THUG who shot Renee Good, suffered internal injury that caused bleeding. That he shot in self defense.
Can we say BULL - SHIT‼️

Immigration enforcement can be, and has been, accomplished without needless suffering.
Jacob Frey on Fox & Friends: "We have had perhaps tens of thousands of people peacefully protesting in the streets, and at the same time yeah, they're gonna stand up for their neighbors. And what we're seeing time and time again is unconstitutional conduct by ICE."

I hope they are spending millions on consultants designing strategies to work every leverage against this administration.
In case anybody on Capitol Hill is wondering, the mood right now out here in the hinterlands is for Democrats not to miss votes.
Especially since so many Republicans are out that Dems could pretty much stop anything with full attendance.
We are paying attention.

What are the odds that “immigrants voting” is the excuse for why ICE is charged with seizing the ballot boxes.

Still bothered by the “well, I’ll speak up now that it’s affecting me” mantra of the privilege few.
The Clintons are betting that by the time their subpoena is litigated, we will have a Dem majority in the house that will withdraw the subpoena. A pretty good bet.
Breaking NYT:
The Clintons have refused to testify in the House's Epstein investigation — effectively daring James Comer to follow through on his threats to hold them in contempt.
"Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight … For us, now is that time."
