It's a good day to call your Senators and tell them that you are watching and that you will not forget what they do, or fail to do.
From vacant preeners like Weiss, the big address to the troops is always "You are the best gosh-darn team in the world, but none of you morons understand the new realities." I'm pretty sure the journalists whose working day she interrupted for this intestinal avalanche will now loathe her even more.
This is a perfect synthesis of every blustery, dumb, in-over-their-heads "We all need to learn to pivot" presentation I ever had to sit through in my years at AOL Time Warner Turner AT&T Discovery, Co., Inc. Squint and you can see her future golden parachute.
Did you guys lose a bet or something?
One simple thing Senate Democrats could demand is: ICE agents cannot under any circumstances be masked.
(No, that is not the only thing. No, that is not enough. Yes, I want ICE abolished. Yes, I know "they won't" is a distinct possibility. I hope that saves some of you some time.)
Okay. I'm glad you liked the doc.

I personally don't tell people who have been fighting their hearts out daily for weeks not to celebrate wins of any size. I certainly don't do that when I've been nowhere near the place where the fight has been happening and have done little more than make some donations from miles away.
That was...a joke. The "interviewer" was Jiminy Glick.
It doesn't matter.
It's not good enough.
It won't change things.
It's just cosmetic.
It should have happened years ago.
It doesn't mean anything.
It's too late.
It doesn't make up for the fact that...
Pissing on glimmers of hopefulness isn't tough-minded. It's just wallowing in a comfort zone.
On CNN, Anderson Cooper using the sentence "That was a lie" over and over tonight regarding the words of Noem, Miller and Bovino.
I'm getting "Don't be so ridiculously cheerful!" in response to THIS POST. Bluesky, never change.
Actually, no, change a little.
The President of the United States appears to have begun a journey toward deciding that federal thugs murdering innocent people does not make the great TV he assumed it would. I wish we did not live in a world in which this counts as encouraging news, but it does.
I cannot tell you how many people, including me, have been seriously screwed by this. Both sides deserve to be locked in a room without food, water, heat, or mercy until a deal can be reached.
This country is in crisis because of its reckless and deranged leadership, something a majority of Americans are coming to understand. That is worth stating plainly and clearly in an editorial. It does not require both-sides-ism, false equivalence, blame-shifting, or rhetorical ass-covering. x
Second, like many manifestly disingenuous sentences, this one collapses under the weight of its necessarily vague language. What does "to AVOID violence" mean? Not to commit acts of violence? Or to make sure that you do absolutely nothing that might encourage any ICE agent to put you in harm's way?>
To be clear: First of all, no. The obligation of protesters in the street--whether mere observers or the civilly disobedient--is in no way EQUAL to the obligation of a masked, poorly trained, unaccountable, armed federal force rolling through American streets at the behest of an authoritarian.>
This is from the NYT masthead editorial about the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. The highlighted line invalidates not just the editorial, but the very idea of newspaper editorials crafted by the consensus of a board. Better to publish nothing at all than to publish a line like this.
!["The temperature in Minneapolis is dangerously high. There is an urgent need for the federal agents deployed to the city to step back and take a breath before more Americans are hurt or killed. [Highlighted]: Those protesting the Trump administration have an equal obligation to avoid violence.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_fullsize/plain/did%3Aplc%3Azknk3rjsatent75sdbbopown/bafkreid6g5bmlf3gyxj2egzcy33hkwiaqgrzuoh3yhbpenmvdmvyyobfq4@jpeg)
