The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz did all of the horrible things previously claimed—sex trafficking minors, prostitution (including of minors), drugs, drunk driving, obstruction, the works. The Florida Bulldog has secured and published the House report this evening.

"Research would tell us that most ICE agents entered into these jobs in part because they want approval, and they want to affirm their masculinity in public," said sociologist Nicole Bedera. "An ICE watch works by surrounding these people ... with disapproval."
Observing ICE agents is 'a de-escalation tactic,' sociologist says
The federal government has accused ICE watchers of breaking the law. Sociologist Nicole Bedera said ICE watchers have science behind them. She spoke with MPR News host Clay Masters.

You know what law was intended to prevent state legal regimes from racially profiling families and abducting children who might be caught without a parent? The Civil Rights Act of 1866. You know, the law to dismantle the Black Codes.

I would argue that the case for dismantling ICE has, at this point, virtually nothing to do with larger questions of immigration enforcement and reform, it's just clearly incompatible with a free and democratic society to maintain a secret police force with sweeping and arbitrary authority.
Senator Gallego weighs in as well. Note that at the start of 2025 he was considered a *moderate* on immigration and co-sponsored the Laken Riley Act. Him and many other Dems have been increasingly horrified at what ICE is doing and shifted away from a "more enforcement" focus.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Here's how WaPo and the Times
handled this.
The Times didn't mention the anti-Somali racism. WaPo simply said Trump "revealed his thoughts about Somalia."
WaPo cited Trump praising Hell's Angels without noting he did it while attacking "vicious people" from "the Congo."

American political scholars don't even have models for this shit. This corruption is so brazen and transparently transactional for self-enrichment, it's not been seen in US politics in 100 years. At this scale, it's never been seen.
NYT: Trump has monetized his return to office in a way with out precedent and personally profited by $1.4 billion over his first year: "We know this number to be an underestimate because some of his profits remain hidden from public view. And they continue to grow."

The president took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he’s focused his second term on enriching himself and his family.

This dynamic is basically unchanged in the decades I've followed US politics. The right raises a bullshit bad-faith objection, Dems try to change policy to address it, the right just repeats the bad-faith objection, Dems try again ... forever.
So in the end, what does this article amount to? Republicans are telling the same lie about welfare that they've told for 40 years despite consistent efforts — including many led by Democrats — to restrict and police it.
And in response, Democrats should restrict and police it even more.

To note the problem more explicitly, imho: "Can a man become a woman?" implicitly discounts the existence of trans and cis categories. It's basically saying "assuming trans people don't exist, can trans people exist?"
"Can a man become a woman?" is not a question anyone asks in good faith as it's a complete misunderstanding of what being trans is. Absolutely a GOP op.
Just so everyone understands, this was a Republican op
