It’s time for ICE to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the American people who pay for their bloated budget.

DEMOCRATS MUST DELIVER Trumpism grew out of the failure of the Democratic Party to stand with working families. That cannot continue. At a time of unprecedented income and wealth inequality and declining faith in democracy, Democrats MUST deliver. No excuses. - Medicare for All - A $20-an-hour minimum wage - The PRO Act - A wealth tax on billionaires, which would pay for universal childcare, free public colleges and universities, and a massive housing program - An AI data center moratorium - Bringing ICE under control and comprehensive immigration reform - REAL campaign finance reform

Tucker Carlson said a few weeks ago that when he asked why Trump started the war with Iran, he said “either way, we all die.”
I can’t quite put my finger on it but it feels like we’re heading for some kind of endgame. None of the moves that the powerful are making make sense from a strategic perspective. The Israelis have burned all of their goodwill and political capital for Gaza. They’ve lost the young generation of future American voters. But they don’t seem to care. The Republicans have burned all their capital over tax breaks for billionaires and Iran. They’ve destroyed their own future. But they don’t seem to care. It feels like everyone is throwing their remaining resources at things with no regard for the future because in a few years we’ll be in a completely different world and none of this will matter anyway.

By my count: Abdul Flanagan Hamilton Bernie Warren Talarico Stratton Murphy Slotkin (Hilarious) Not enough to overturn, but way more friction here than in the house.
