This lead would be bigger if leadership would announce they're not funding ICE later this month and support impeachment of Kristi Noem. These aren't radical positions.
A new CNN poll finds Democrats with a 5-point lead on the generic congressional ballot, and they're ahead by 16 among people who are deeply motivated to vote.

This is where we are at. For what? For nothing. For stupidity. For ego. For an old, demented malignant narcissist who expects the world to jump at his every whim. Well, when you follow international news you can see that the world has pretty much had enough of his bullshit.

Its crazy the gradual increase of pleas we've made to ICE
Hey can you wear a name tag?
Hey do you have a warrant
Hey can you please not wear masks?
Hey can you please not murder us?
The hell with training, that organization doesn't need to exist anymore.

Who’s going to enforce it? Because until authorities are brave enough to enforce this ruling, we’re going to keep seeing this abuse.
This is who they are when the cameras are on. Imagine who they are when they think no one’s watching.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

"Terrorism" refers to violence to achieve political ends. Research studies showing that immigrants commit fewer crimes means that ICE's actions are about Trump's racist politics, not law. That means ICE operates as a de facto racialized terrorist organization, not unlike the Gestapo.

The markets did everything they could to hold steady in the face of the Jerome Powell subpoenas, but I’m not sure they’ll do well with this news.
Looks like the EU-US trade deal is now dead, with all three major groups in the EU Parliament calling at least for suspension. The downward spiral has already begun.

First, he claimed tariffs were a way to fix the so-called trade imbalance.
