Remember when "Voted for the Iraq War" was a red line we wouldn't allow Dems to weasel out of and it weeded out at least a meaningful portion of our worst liberal pols? This is that times 1,000,000

Not sure who needs to hear this but the reason EVERYONE including non-citizens have fundamental constitutional rights is specifically because if you start excluding people then the govt can just ignore EVERYONE'S rights and say they didn't know who was who in the aftermath.
This isn't complicated.

The thing about this approach is not only is it out of touch with the hellscape we're living through but even if Ds did manage to win majorities running on it they have proven over DECADES that there is nothing they can substantially do about these issues so it'll just blow up on their face in 2028
NEW: In this interview, Chuck Schumer describes the "five buckets" Dems think are key to their possibly winning a Senate majority in 2026: housing, "the high price of food [and] food monopolies playing a major role there," electricity, "the high cost of childcare," and health care.
Zero Chucks Left to Give
Chuck Schumer now sees a path back to the majority. Can he manage his way through it?

My only argument would be that if those playoff odds were more like 60/40 (because let's be real) then it doesn't take many years before that compounds to a substantial advantage
People replying to this with “why not just give them the World Series now?”
Because the difference between a good team and a great team is pretty small in a random set of 162 games and also they have to go through multiple rounds of basically 50/50 playoffs?

I have a hard time hating the Dodgers for doing an A+ job building their business and team and then paying their players a lot. I certainly don’t think it’s a good reason to keep players from getting paid as much as they can get.

I don't feel bad for any of these assholes, but it must be really sad to make being a federal agent your whole identity only for the worst people in the world to come along and let every mall cop reject who has ever jerked off to the idea of having a badge be given a $75k bonus to shit on your job
“I’m embarrassed,” one former ICE agent with more than 25 years of experience told TIME. “The majority of my colleagues feel the same way. It’s an insult to us, because we did it the right way to see what they’re doing now.”

If you could actually nail an ideal endgame for Trump, it would be "The guy who gets to set interest rates whenever he wants." He has never been hornier for any teenager like he has been at the fantasy of lording interest rates over his circle of real estate ghouls. Contra Code shit for him.

I'm always seeing old videos of Zach de la Rocha or Chris Cornell just absolutely burning down the sky with the greatest vocals of all time and then here comes Tom Morello like "Hey what if after that I go all SQUUEEEEEZIPZIPZIPSQUIPSQUIOZEEEEE" and apparently no one ever told him not to do that.

I don't think it's just some personal trivia that this guy was married to one of the most vapid purveyors of MAGA propaganda ever. He's been a power hungry toad since he came out of the womb, he surrounds himself with the same types of people, and he sucks shit. Burn his shit down.
