Just remember when Dems who "represent" you are up for reelection to ask them if any of them were ever ONCE in the streets with us, or is they were too busy confirming another of trump's nominees.
So far, all the courage has come from ordinary people, and almost none from our leaders and politicians.
Peaceful protest requires leaders willing to put their own bodies on the line.
Walz has that option. All of our leaders do.

The press practice of relying on the govt to set the narrative is routine enough in the US to normally escape notice, but in an insurrection it looks unmistakably absurd alongside citizen reporting. Running in clown shoes to the cops & the White House to uncritically report back whatever they say.

It’s worth considering that an overnight dismantling of ICE in 2029 would release into the wild a whole herd of specialists in violence with scant other marketable skills.

Then the hard part is that they actually need to take action commensurate with those threats.
