It's worse than you think.

This is from a 2013 CBP review of 15 agent-involved shootings involving vehicles. They aren't just flouting department policy. They're using their old tactics to manufacture situations that will justify shootings. This suggests premeditation. www.cbp.gov/sites/defaul...

During the Renee Good shooting, one agent stood directly in front of her car and drew his weapon while another lunged at the driver's side door. I think it's deliberate.

It’s expensive, but a most great cities are.

This article is spot on. Literally the first reply to this post back in 2016 was someone telling me I was being overly dramatic and that everything would be fine.

This article spoke to me more than anything I've read since the start of the Trump era. It's like being the only sane person in the asylum. I knew what Trump was early on, but I overestimated the intelligence of my fellow Americans going into the 2016 election. After he won, I knew what was coming.

I have a pro-Boston bias, but I think it's one of the best Cities in the country. Great City to visit if you don't want to rent a car.

His term ends in 2028. With his health issues I think there's at least a half decent chance he'll simply go the Sinema route, take the cushy lobbying gig and lifetime healthcare plan, and retire.

I just find it comical that people actually believe that the House Minority Whip cast such a politically significant vote without the blessing of the minority leader. It's just a laughable notion.
November 10, 2025 at 9:42 PM
Republicans managed to find exactly eight democrats, who all just happened to be retiring, or 4+ years away from their next election campaign. It's almost like the votes were carefully whipped to deliver the exact votes needed for the CR while shielding the bulk of the caucus from accountability.
November 10, 2025 at 9:33 PM
One of the defectors was the Minority Whip, and Shaheen said that leadership did little to pressure them or the others not to vote for the CR. Whether that makes Schumer actively complicit or simply weak and ineffectual as minority leader doesn't really matter.

The quote was correct. 1:39.

Are you saying that Jeanne Shaheen lied? It contains a direct quote. Ignore the commentary.

I think I covered that with "knucklehead." We'll see if this sinks him. I'm glad that this is coming out in October 2025 instead of October 2026.

From his reddit history, I don't think Platner is one. His posts indicate quite the opposite. I do think he's a knucklehead.

Musk’s AI bot lied? Shocking.

Aging white suburban boomers who are also radical leftist antifa terrorists who hate America?
October 20, 2025 at 4:25 PM
So are they evil antifa terrorists who hate America or are they older white haired hippies who showed up by the millions?

I’m not sure my liberalism had anything to do with it. I was there. I took photos and video. The trees are not in full bloom. The Internet lied to you. Not sure what to tell you.
October 20, 2025 at 12:21 PM
It does actually.

More green trees.

Green trees.
October 19, 2025 at 2:43 PM
I was there. Nobody’s lying but you.

They're suing because they have people in the Justice Department who will settle.

That said, his opinion is well within the Democratic mainstream. The rigid fiat that one must defend the actions of the Netanyahu government or be labeled Antisemitic is unsustainable.
