i basically agree but i’ll just say - not as a defense but as context - it’s being driven by what they think the preferences are of ppl who will not vote again until 2028 at the earliest. the entire party is obsessed with imagining a type of guy - and it’s a guy - who might like them if they do x
The fact that some prominent Democrats defend a Maine Senate primary candidate’s Nazi tattoo while he isn’t even leading in polls, but not defend a NYC mayor primary winner from false smears even as he’s leading general election polls says a lot.
That doesn’t seem driven by voter preference.

Trump in Malaysia: "United Nation should be doing this but they don't do it. They turned off my teleprompter when I made a speech. They're good at that. The escalator wasn't working."

By proceeding with the demolition of the White House East Wing before seeking approval from federal agencies for a new ballroom, President Donald Trump forced the issue. It's a strategy known as "stake-driving."

First, billionaires passed legislation to enrich themselves.
Then they shut down the government to avoid helping working Americans afford health care—a system billionaires profit from.
Now, they’re trying to use the shutdown to gut programs millions of families depend on. trib.al/pUkHFwh

A very disturbing video has emerged from today’s ICE/CBP operations in Avondale.
An officer pushes a woman to the ground, prompting bystanders to react angrily and throw what appears to be a rock at a moving unmarked vehicle.
This seems to be the new normal in Chicago.

Bernie Sanders made some pretty ridiculous comments related to border security and how basically border security is necessary to have a nation. So was the U.S. not a nation prior to the manufactured border security panic? Because people were crossing that southern border fairly freely prior to then.
Reminder that the idea of "border security" is political and a result of moral panic. In 1965, Congress passed amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act that put number limits on immigration and ended longstanding guest worker agreements with Mexico. This helped lead to agencies like ICE. /1

I can’t believe there are not one but two articles, in major papers, with this dumb framing. It is not NIMBY to express dismay when a big part of the White House is suddenly rubbled

In video provided exclusively to MSNBC's The Weekend: Primetime, immigration agents are seen attempting to pull a man out a window of a Chicago home. Agents also jumped a fence into the locked backyard and manhandled people doing work. Hear from the homeowner tonight on The Weekend: Primetime.

to the Aurora Police
following egregious attacks by immigration in Aurora and related protests
So here it is!
