The deck is stacked in about 10 different ways to give extra power and money to rural areas, but it's never enough. Right wing propaganda continues to tell them they are out upon victims powerless against the mighty cities.
Stage 5 pundit-brain is watching an innocent woman being killed by agents of the state and going, "hmm this says a lot about the urban-rural divide in America."

I’m begging Democratic leaders to understand that outlining and forcefully articulating their vision for accountability now is an electoral strategy.
"The Democrats’ plan: TBD. There has been a lot of rhetoric, but ... the caucus is largely shying away from using its leverage in the appropriations process and threatening another government shutdown."

For 248 years the streets of America didn’t feature a roving masked federal kidnapping squad that might send you a Central American death camp or just murder you themselves, but getting rid of it now is some impossible lefty fantasy that professional Democrats lamentably must struggle against.
Classic Democratic no-win. All of them voted against the OBAA, which supercharged ICE funding and hiring. But they won't say they'd "abolish ICE" so they'll get yelled at (mostly by people who'll vote for them in the midterms after threatening not to).
Top Democrats decline to say if they would rein in ICE after Minnesota shooting

A lot of “not sures” the Democrats are failing to speak to this week.
The latest from YouGov (n ~ 2.7k). A majority of Americans say ICE tactics are "too forceful." Only 27 percent say they are appropriate as-is.
ICE approval: -13
Approval of recent protests against ICE: +2

Also, look: a sad fact is a lot of Americans cannot extend their empathy to all of humanity but can extend it to some people who are more similar to them. I agree this represents a moral deficiency but it's more urgent for us to take power than it is to correct the moral failing of many Americans.
i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

Bravest motherfuckers you've ever seen. They just saw a neighbor get murdered and still out there. Maybe let's see some local officials with the power to arrest show as much backbone as these voters PAYING YOUR FUCKING SALARY
Live updates: Around 200 people marched more than two miles from the scene of the shooting to Minneapolis City Hall, shouting “ICE out now!” after police hurried away from the scene Wednesday afternoon.
The crowd of is continuing to snake its way through downtown.

All of these people need to be thrown in jail when Trump’s reign of terror ends. This is illegal, and they know it. “Just following orders” is not an excuse.
ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

A bunch of toxic LA NIMBYs are whining about SB 79, the amazing housing bill the CA legislature passed recently.
It's on the governor's desk, and reportedly he's getting cold feet. Hey @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, please have some spine on the most important issue in your state. Just sign it.

Remember that the Trump Administration demands you idolize these agents and not condemn them.

But they’re Gestapo trash.
The circumstances of Mr. Escobar's arrest are even worse than the brief summary above. He repeatedly tried to tell the immigration officials that he had papers while they were arresting him.
In response, a federal agent said "No you don't. You are illegal," and "Shut up, bitch! You're illegal."
In response, a federal agent said "No you don't. You are illegal," and "Shut up, bitch! You're illegal."
![For example, on August 21, 2025, plain-clothed and unidentified federal agents arrested Mr. Escobar Molina without a warrant while he was getting in his truck to go to work. They did not ask for his name or his identification or ask anything about his immigration status, where he lives, whom he lives with, how long he has lived here, or anything else about his ties to the community. The agents immediately handcuffed Mr. Escobar Molina, grabbed him by the arms and legs, and called him “illegal” repeatedly. When he responded that he has “papers” (in other words, immigration status), they replied, “No you don’t. You are illegal.” After the agents put Mr. Escobar Molina into a vehicle, when Mr. Escobar Molina told them again that he had “papers,” the driver of the car yelled at him, “Shut up, bitch! You’re illegal.” The agents did not make an individualized determination about Mr. Escobar Molina’s immigration status or flight risk before they arrested him. While Mr. Escobar Molina was in detention, ICE fingerprinted and interviewed [excerpt ends there].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreihkz7lzuyt7exjpi7e4jm65iinagvhuhmwokzmlki6tree4uznl4y@jpeg)
