If their weak sauce bullshit is going to be considered impeding, the next pair of Democratic leaders should do something worthy of the accusation.

Stephen Miller is himself Jewish. Like with Latinos, Jewishness is an ethnicity rather than a race, and the white Jews can buy into white supremacy even when other white supremacists might reject them as white.

It had some sort of surge in New Orleans, but the Republicans in Louisiana are overjoyed to see city folk get stomped on. Almost all cities are blue, so deploying to a red state just means the governor will cheer them on rather than talk tough and do nothing.

“Felt to many here like we were carrying water for the admin’s justifying of the shooting to keep our access to our sources”

That’s Bari Weiss’s signature move!

I don’t think the Nobel committee expected their award to precipitate armed intervention, which is the opposite of peace.

Then they’re idiots and the prize itself is worthless. That was clear as day going to be the promoted result. If they just wanted to promote democracy they could have easily chosen an activist in a country not in the process of being attacked or an activist that wasn’t currently encouraging war.

I don’t give them the benefit of assumed stupidity. I think they were neoliberals who were particularly concerned by the nationalized industries in Venezuela and who thought even if they found him abhorrent Trump could be a good tool to help set the imperialist-capitalist world back arright.

Yeah. If we can get a picture of a bullet hole in the door that’s getting to the point where the people biased to lick boots to question the narrative. I already think ICE is lying because they’ve done it so reliably I now need supporting evidence before even considering their claims are real.

Next week: Gavin Newsome featuring Jonathan Ross (givesendgo link in the details)

Looks like $4-5M out of their $178M expenses goes to execs. $300-400k salaries with no stock doesn’t seem that egregious for an exec. Jimmy Wales is not paid.

Isn’t Wikipedia a nonprofit?

Since a medical professional wouldn’t use the term “torso” (they’d call it the chest or abdomen), it’s probably safe to assume they’re just making stuff up.

I wouldn’t say it disproves their story as it just shows what the victims told 911 after the shooting, but DHS’s credibility is basically zero, so in a factual dispute between them and basically anyone else, I’m inclined to believe anyone else.

I think they pocket-affirmed the Texas map that had been blocked by a Reagan appointee.

The formatting of these posts really is terrible.

A snow shovel is an unwieldy piece of plastic on the end of a stick, not a deadly weapon. The only useful technique I can think of is as a shoving bar. And you think the Delta-force cosplayers should naturally escalate to gunfire.

Which was definitely not applied to the leg during a melee by an expert marksman like a video game. The leg is just what happened to be hit, and since the reports were of multiple shots, who knows where the other ones went in this residential neighborhood.

Weird how that’s literally the only direction the people at the top ever ask for. And they, at the top, just stay there and don’t seek to help or support those bottom up tactics.

And even though there are more out Nazis than cops, even just gumming up the works by pulling over a van full of them because they’re breaking the law is actually doing something useful. Tying up Nazis on the street and in court by pretending the law still exists is more than this learned helplessness by the most powerful people on our side. They don’t even need to look for them, just post a guy outside the federal building running plates that leave. Even if they just end up ignoring the citation, the propaganda value of police telling ICE they’re not above the law would be extremely valuable. But instead they throw up their hands and try to tell the people there’s nothing they can do. Every. Single. Time.

Ah yes, the domestic violence excuse. He could be beating you more.

He’s the head of the state, with resources beyond just gently asking his people to turn the other cheek. He’s got the bully pulpit to call for strikes, he’s got the police to enforce plate laws and intervene when ICE breaks the law, he’s got the instruments of state to rewrite laws. All he does is chide the people.

This is “a campaign of organized brutality” and all he can think of is take your phone out and turn the other cheek. Which is conveniently a thing other people will carry the burden for and for which he has to make zero hard decisions.

“A person was shot”. Gotta twist things into the passive voice when performing state stenography.

Walz added that “accountability” will be coming through the courts.

Ah, sweet liberal fantasies. When the system fails you just need to trust it harder.

The two people who came out of the apartment are in custody, it said.

If that’s the complete list, those two people saved a man today. Hopefully the court system will continue to treat “ICE says” as legally worthless and the heroes will be released.
