I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

If ICE truly were targeting "the worst of the worst" and not, you know, deliberately brutalizing innocent families with children, they'd rush to correct all the stories like this one, apologizing and insisting it's not what they're really doing.
They don't because this is deliberate. This is it.

The parents of a 7 year old, all of whom are in the process of applying for asylum, took their daughter to the ER when her nose wouldn't stop bleeding. ICE picked them up near the hospital and they are now in detention in Texas, presumably awaiting deportation. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

"Should we vote to give more money to the people shooting my constituents in the face?" is not a complicated political question. And yet, Democrats don't seem able to answer it.

Sharp argument from the chief scientific officer at @nature.com that promoting diversity in science is needed to get over misperceptions about where great research is happening and a tendency amongst some to just collaborate with ‘your mates’

All they had to say was, "There was a tragedy in Minnesota yesterday. Our prayers are with everyone involved. This is an emotional moment, and we ask all sides to remain peaceful while this incident is fully investigated." This is certainly mealymouthed, but it at least shows mature understanding.

It is impossible to make democracy work with a party that not only tolerates people like this, but elevates them to positions of influence.

JD Vance supports murdering American citizens. He's made that perfectly clear today. If he's willing to defend the murder of Renee Good, he would defend your murder, too.

Anyone ever wonder if Mike's like this because he knows he's second in line to the throne so if something happens to the other two guys, he wants to be able to keep his options open?

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

It’s dispiriting to hear several of my otherwise reasonable friends rationalizing trump’s Venezuelan adventure because Maduro is a
bad person. True, but this process for removing bad people tends to lead to bad outcomes.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

What’s interesting is Missouri voters plainly told the Chiefs a couple years ago they weren’t paying to build them a new stadium. So the team is going to Kansas and lawmakers there aren’t giving voters a choice.
Breaking news: The Kansas City Chiefs have informed administrative officials that they will announce their move to Kansas today, according to sources who asked not to be named because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
