Grew up in Sacramento, spent some time in Alaska, now in Las Vegas.
I don't post my own stuff very much because I feel like other people are better at saying what I want to say.
I try my best to be a nice guy.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

It's remarkable that Trump's claim that there are no constraints on his power other than his "own morality"--that he thinks he can govern as a dictator--proved to be a 1-day story, with no follow-up coverage in the New York Times, to whom he said this, or, as far as I can tell, any other newspaper.

When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you."
That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

A credulous media will be the death of the Republic
Why would Trump stop lying? It's worked for him so far.
Lying has helped him avoid almost all accountability as a sex predator.
Lying has made him billions.
Lying got him out of felonies that would put anyone else in prison.
Lying has made him so powerful that most media won't call his lies "lies."

I’m not saying EVERYTHING is possible, or even necessarily that ANYTHING ELSE is possible this way.
But for all the times you’ve been told “we don’t have the votes,” well, “we” didn’t have the votes for THIS, either. And yet here we are.
And on a discharge petition, no less. Those NEVER work!

Rep. Doug LaMalfa,who died this morning, was one of 147 Republicans who voted to overturn the 2020 election.
It was defining moment of his political career—one that must not be forgotten on the anniversary of January 6.

One of the most significant features of this current moment in Republican Party history is that it’s the ideological weirdos on the right edge of the party who’ve been the most willing to stand up to Trump. The supposedly principled moderates have been mostly spineless.

A lot of people are mad at Schumer for saying this. But he's right. Democrats don't control a single branch of government and they can't pass anything. Only Republicans can rein in Trump because they control both chambers of Congress. Democrats have no cards to play here.
Schumer: "Republicans must -- if there was ever a time, they must step up to the plate. This is the time. And if they don't, they're gonna feel the heat from their constituents."
