If you're a Democrat, you're a sucker if you imagine this agency has anything to do with immigration. It is--and aspires to be!--a fascist paramilitary goon squad. You should start saying so and lay the groundwork for starving it of funding when you take power

No clue what his other politics are, but give credit where credit is due. Hell yeah brother you a real one for this

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Absolutely fucking crazy that we live in some Adult Swim cartoon type of reality where the president creates a racist goon squad that runs around tormenting and kidnapping people state by state like they’re on tour, and then the next headline about the president is just this

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

One of the right wing's top cultural initiatives was trying to destroy the idea that assholery deserves shame and we'll have to reverse that. "I'm just expressing an opinion I'm entitled to." Ok but you're an asshole. "I'm simply doing a business practice that technically isn't illegal." Ok. Asshole

Bernie Sanders has said:

"If you're the Qatari royal family worth $335 billion, Trump gives you an Air Force facility in Idaho. If you're the President of Argentina, Trump gives you a $20 billion bailout. If you're an American whose health care premiums are about to double? Tough luck."

Almost like we founded the entire country on opposing this exact sentence.

Idk how to explain it but the fact that that guy is just wearing vans kinda shines a light on these guys just being hired goons

Matthew 15:29-31: And great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and they put them at his feet, and he healed them after verifying their citizenship status.

Every pundit who took at face value the idea that the Right sincerely cares about free speech, or ideological diversity, or in fact has any principles at all, should be wearing a dunce cap and writing a lengthy mea culpa right now. Not for our catharsis but for public awareness at least

99% of the culture war from the right is them going out of their way to look at stuff that they don’t need to look at that just ends up making them mad

really feels like housing affordability is one of the most important political issues of our time, affecting nearly every aspect of our lives, and everyday our mainstream political discourse is about whether sour cream is woke or not

Today we learned Andrew Cuomo is directly coordinating with Donald Trump, even as this President sends masked agents to rip our neighbors off the streets and guts the social services so many New Yorkers rely on.

It’s disqualifying and a betrayal of our city.

man I pray that he is the spark that lights the flame. I would kill to see more people like him pop up everywhere

I think PART of the play for trump with the ai video is to show what’s left of his loyal followers how ai can look sort of realistic, so that if damning evidence gets shown of him in the future he can just be like “that was ai you guys remember how they can look kinda real right?”

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.
