Chuck Schumer hears this and immediately starts thinking up ways to rescue him.
Pew has Trump's approval at 37%. And:
"Only about a quarter of Americans today (27%) say they support all or most of Trump’s policies and plans, down from 35% when he returned to office last year. That change has come entirely among Republicans."

Trump: "People that own their homes -- we're gonna keep them wealthy. We're gonna keep those prices up. We're not gonna destroy the value of their homes so that somebody who didn't work very hard can buy a home."

Asking the chat for help: there's not-super-famous UK podcaster I'd like to profile for a queer media outlet. I have a long resume in journalism and I think I have a good angle. Any thoughts on places I could pitch? (I've gotten a few 'no's and I need new ideas.)

This era of politics sucks, but it IS very funny to hear the excuses these people make for not doing what they're obviously supposed to do.

You know things are going badly for the administration if the Times points out the obvious this way.
Ilhan Omar, the Democratic member of Congress who was attacked at a public event in Minnesota on Tuesday, has played an outsize role in national politics. She has also long been a target of right-wing criticism and false claims, most notably from President Trump.

Rep. Omar was born in Somalia, so this comes after weeks of racist attacks on American citizens and residents by the president, as well as the raids on Minneapolis largely aimed at them.
I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.
I don’t let bullies win.
Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Because of their quotas and because they're not exactly cut out for taxing detective work, ICE/CBP tend to target people in the worst and laziest ways possible.
After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.
Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

getting feds to say shit like this on camera with their face exposed is NUTS -- you can not reform this agency, everyone involved must go, there is no practical way to root out all of these guys

It seems rather pressing to me. How can we expect these murders to stop if the killers are *deliberately hidden by the administration* when they shuld be prosecuted?
It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

I hate to agree with the guy, but this is right.
The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

And just like that the extortion attempt reaches another stage.
The Trump administration on Monday targeted Minnesota schools, saying they have violated federal law by allowing transgender girls to play sports with their peers.
Minnesota targeted by federal government over trans girls in sports
The notice comes as the Trump administration faces a substantial backlash to its immigration enforcement in the state, which has led to the shooting deaths of two Minnesotans.

It's very important not to let Dems act like they've won and solved this problem just because this one unqualified wanna be influencer gets fired. Yes, she should be fired, but also, all of these people should be prosecuted and ICE needs to go.
Heads are going to roll and it's probably Noem's
Fox correspondent Bill Melugin’s stark acknowledgement that "videos appear to show [Pretti] never drew his holstered firearm" was whiplash-inducing for anyone who had been following Fox’s on-air coverage of the killing -- and it marked a major shift.
