Today I confronted “border czar” Tom Homan who came to Albany to do Trump’s bidding — push for mass deportations, carry out the assault on working class New Yorkers, and justify the unjustifiable detention of legal permanent resident and father-to-be, Mahmoud Khalil.

[Gavin Newsom seeing Kamala hold no real convictions, unconvincingly align herself with what seems politically popular at the moment, then eat shit trying to walk it back when the environment changes 4 years later] I should do that.

Failing to meet the moment. Leaving the moment on read. Refusing to meet the moment's eyes when we're both at Trader Joe's. Neglecting to mention I ran into the moment when I'm hanging out with friends

New from me in @newrepublic.com: “Primary Every Democrat.”
If the current crop cannot demonstrate they care more about democracy than enjoying three-day weekends, we should flood the zone and challenge them all.

Primary Every Democrat
It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.

There will not be “free and fair” US elections in 2026 or 2028, but the Assholes are not omnipotent or popular - they only won with 30% of the population, which is their support ceiling across the decade.

I try not to think about it but every so often I dwell on how stupid you have to be to believe in Q Anon. We always hear “My sister was a smart person! It can happen to anyone.” and that’s just not true. It can’t happen to anyone. Your sister isn’t smart.
