Under a new bill introduced in California’s legislature this week, ICE-Gestapo killers would be banned from working in California law as well as inside the public school system.
Hell yes, I’m all for it, now expand that to all industries.

A man assaulted Representative Ilhan Omar at her town hall, but she responded by dropping an f-bomb. Both sides need to tone things down.
Coming tomorrow, by someone who thinks of themself as a serious person.

it reveals pretty plainly that "merit-based hiring" means "you belong to the correct class and hold the right set of identities"
Odd how when people like Bari Weiss go on about 'merit-based hiring', what they mean is hiring nice-looking white boys from elite schools regardless of their experience.

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) is planning to fly to Minneapolis tomorrow. Ro Khanna flew in today.
We've been telling Dems to do this last week. You have to be in Minnesota. You have to be with the people. You have to stand next to Walz and Frey.
Coordinated effort, leadership, and pushback.
