A functioning press would be pointing this out non-stop, and making them defend it in every interview.

So many sexual assaults could be stopped if men had the courage at the locker room talk phase (on or offline) of just telling their boys “that’s fucked up, dude. You should show some respect for women.”

Never sell anyone out. In fact, if you're asked about banning 12-year-olds from softball, just say, "You're asking me to sell out kids for my political career. I'm not going to do that. Let's stop demonizing people in tougher circumstances than you or I will ever experience. They have guts."

House Democratic leadership has a press conference scheduled later today. A suggestion: Cancel it. The Democrats are doing well. Their candidates are running good campaigns. Let them have the spotlight. We don't need a leadership press conference. Don't be a distraction. Silence can be golden.

The Dem message to Trump should be that if he wants ANYTHING from Congress, he’ll have to stop all the flagrant abuses, and that their legislating will be aimed at protecting the public from rogue government. “Common ground” as an opening bid is a terrible posture. www.offmessage.net/p/hakeem-jef...

He needs to be drawing redlines, not signaling compromise. Did he get snookered, or does he really intend to work cooperatively with thieves?

In my opinion, a failure to understand the white-hot rage so many people feel about ICE's campaign of terror and oppression is what has taken some establishment Dems by surprise in their primaries. Abolish ICE and Nuremberg 2.0 is basically the floor for what the Dem electorate is demanding.

@preetbharara.bsky.social Why does the Supreme Court take a summer recess while virtually every other court in the US operates year-round? Is there a legitimate institutional reason, or is this just tradition at this point? Seems like a lot of cases get delayed waiting for October.

Every single person hired by this admin needs to be fired immediately once we have a new one. (Thanks SCOTUS!) I realize this will be rough because they've already fired all the best people and we'll be short-handed, but no one hired during these four years can be trusted.

We are in a major crisis. If the Republican leadership does not want to call Congress back into session, the Democrats should come back to Washington and do something now to stop this maniac. Staying home and waiting for next week to do something about it is pathetic.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.
