I know Kevin knows this, but the explanation for this is clear: It's racism. Racism and xenophobia and misogyny.

A white native-born American, living in the parts of the country where white native-born men still hold disproportionate power, is the only fully "real" American in the eyes of many.
It really is amazing how much of political punditry, *especially* elite outfits in NYC and Washington, still embrace this bizarre idea that rural spaces represent the "Real America" while metropolitan areas, where most (presumably real) Americans actually live, should be held in contempt.
Just going to point out again that our arbitrary political rules permit Republicans to attack urban areas with impunity but strictly forbid the faintest whiff of condescension toward rural areas by Democrats

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

Being furious about the Super Bowl halftime show isn't a "half the country" thing, the NFL wouldn't have done it if it was. It's a "loud noisy minority who also vote in GOP primaries" thing, and our electoral system gives those people insanely more power than their actual numbers merit.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

I’m an eternal pessimist but Bovino getting run out of Minneapolis with his tail between his legs is a win.

Celebrating a victory on Monday doesn’t mean you’re giving up the fight for Tuesday.
I don't keep doomers in my feed but since apparently some folks do: "celebrate each and every win, loudly" is Organizing 101

And there it is
Or to put it really simply:

For true accountability, an oppressor must lose power. But their victims must also see every harm repaired.

I’m seeing a lot of calls for punishment of ICE agents and DHS leadership.

But don’t forget that a thirst for punishment can leave the victims behind. Our top priority should be rebuilding the communities that ICE is trying to destroy.

This does appear to be real. Look at what Minnesotans are doing. Just incredible.

Years from now, it'll be difficult to explain the things people in media were wailing about before all this. Sophomores writing underconsidered op-eds about cultural appropriation. Protests against demagogues on campus. YA drama. "Mobs" on Twitter. These were the threats to free society.

If the admin's strategic goal was to break public resistance to immigration enforcement activities, it was a tactical mistake to go to the Twin Cities.

They need all protestors to be paid operatives because they cannot abide the possibility that somewhere in the world, people sincerely believe in standing up for others. It isn’t enough that they’ve chased all moral virtue from their own hearts. They want a world where no virtue exists in anyone.
Trump on Renee Good: "When she was shot, there was another woman that was screaming 'Shame. Shame Shame Shame.' So loud. Like a professional opera singer. She was so loud. And so professional. She wasn't a woman that was hurt like, 'Oh my heart is injured.' She was a professional."

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

this would be great if it were true. the truth of the matter is that they have never ever not one time even picked up a moderate republican. not once. it's why they have lost to donald fucking trump twice when it has been crystal clear he's the worst person on the planet to give political power.
Mamdani is mayor of a single city. Schumer has been in Congress for 40+ years and said this:
""For every blue-collar Democrat we lose in western Pennsylvania, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia. And you can repeat that in Ohio and Illinois and Wisconsin."
