Several Cornell fraternity brothers say that they did not actively participate in the infamous group chat and were only included in it because Pete Hegseth had accidentally added them to it.

My focus group of swing voters rated Republicans as more likely to be white nationalists, cut deals with dictators, and kill civilians in the street. But they rated them above Democrats, whom they said had a problem with extremism.

I dont believe rapists or allow them to once again use their victim's bodies self-servingly. Or their apologists. Why are you? Once again, it is not required to disclose your victim's identity to be transparent about being a rapist. You pretending not to understand that doesnt require my complicity.

Ms Rachel from the top ropes

From Ms Rachel's account on Threads, she writes, "CORECIVIC, a company that makes hundreds of millions locking up KIDS in immigration detention
has a PAC that's sending campaign checks to Senator Susan Collins of Maine.
Susan Collins chairs the Senate committee that writes ICE's budget.
ICE is CoreCivic's customer.
The company gets paid out of a budget she controls, and it pays into her campaign."

People don’t remark enough on the fact that the most gender-essentialist people on the planet have dubbed themselves “gender critical.” It’s like if neocons had named themselves “war critical” and people had just gone along with it.

I've always half-joked that the term is simply short for "transgender critical." But that'd give away the game too much. Hence all the euphemisms about "gender ideology," though we *all* know what that refers to. But these people reify gender like no other; they love the idea of it being immutable.

She said: Promise made, promise kept.

Additionally, it's an attempt to usurp the power to judge the qualifications of members of the House, which the Constitution vests solely in the House itself. And there's no reason to assume she will be the last member of Congress he goes after like this. It's a direct attack on the legislature.

It matters that she's a member of Congress. This is an extreme escalation. He is attacking a member of the one body with the constitutional power to hold him accountable and check his crimes. And he's doing so trying to gin up a fake basis to strip her of her eligibility to be in Congress.

Doing a pre-dawn house raid is obviously being done as thuggish intimidation and as a literally violent assault on her and her family. Overaggressive raids happen in other contexts but in this case it's going out of their way to do politically targeted state terrorism.

*Even if* there was some factual basis for that suspicion, and there is absolutely none, there is no plausible basis to think any related evidence could be at her home all these years later. And the statute of limitations would have long expired even for any theoretically possible criminal charge.

To start with, this is happening because the president has targeted a member of Congress as part of a broader explicitly racist hate campaign against Americans of a particular ethnic origin. There's no other way to put it.

There will be a lot of equivocating about all the times search warrants have been executed on members of Congress for corruption investigations and the like, and it can't be stressed enough in how many ways HSI raiding Ilhan Omar is extremely not like that.
