ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

It's not the most important part of the issue but Kavanaugh saying "well they should just sue if they're the victims of excessive force from ICE" when he himself has previously voted to bar lawsuits against federal officers for violations of the 4th Amendment in immigration cases takes chutzpah.
The injunction is silent as to the use
of force. And it is not necessary for the injunction to address
that use-of-force question because the Fourth Amendment’s
reasonableness standard continues to govern the officers’
use of force and to prohibit excessive force.
To the extent that excessive force has been used, the
Fourth Amendment prohibits such action, and remedies
should be available in federal court. I agree with the
dissent on that point. But to reiterate, this injunction
against brief stops for questioning does not address the useof-force issue.

Makes you wonder about the beach convos this pair would have had if only national politics - and how the GOP are busy stealing healthcare and food from the vulnerable to give tax cuts and fund their ICE kidnapping machine - didn't get in the way of Senator Fetterman's lovely beach vacation.

My friend Laura wrote this beautiful piece about the lovely older woman who closed out our No Kings rally at Fitzpatrick's office. Hannah is a lifelong Republican who used to go to abortion clinics and do her rosary out front. But she nonetheless had to come out to stand up for our democracy. /1

Idea for media, and folks communicating about the situation in LA. If you call it "rioting in LA" you are insulting the 99% of folks who were there in peace and committed no crime. Why not say "the peaceful protests in LA, and the small outbreaks of damage and violence"? Longer, but accurate.

Sheriff Harran has never met a surveillance technology that he didn't embrace. "A sign in the Bensalem Police Department reminds officers to ask for a DNA sample from anyone they arrest. Most people give consent." 📸Credit: Mark Makela for NYT #GiftArticle (2019) www.nytimes.com/2019/01/21/s...
"To collect DNA, police in Pennsylvania must obtain consent from people under arrest. Ninety percent of those asked say yes, said Fred Harran, director of public safety for the Bensalem police; it was Mr. Harran who encouraged the department to take the lead in DNA policing. Asked why so many people would consent to give DNA, he said: “I have no idea. But criminals do stupid things.”Large blue sign in Bensalem, PA police office admonishes their officers to, "ASK FOR DNA"  Most people do not realize that they do NOT *have to* give their DNA sample, even for simple traffic stops, when asked.
