And now comes the most nauseating part of this whole goddamn mess: the hypocrisy. The same loud-mouthed idiots who spent years screaming about tyranny are suddenly dead fucking silent, or worse, cheering, now that it's their side doing it. "ThEy'Re cOminG fOr OuR gUnS!" "GoVerNMenT oVerReAch!" "ShAll nOt bE inFrinGeD!" All that chest-thumping bullshit evaporated the second armed federal agents started terrorizing people they don't like.
Let me get this straight: a civilian gets shot dead by federal agents, and the only thing you brainless cunts can muster is
"well, DHS says he had a gun"? THAT'S your red line? Guns are sacred when they're strapped to your waist, but magically become a death sentence when they're used as a post-hoc excuse by the government? Either the Second Amendment applies to everyone, or you never believed in it at all. Fucking pick one and own it.
This is exactly what tyranny looks like, by the way. Not jackboots marching in formation, but armed agents roaming neighborhoods, stopping people, killing civilians, and then daring the public to question it. Tyranny is execution followed by a press release. Tyranny is labeling the dead a "threat" so the state doesn't have to explain why someone's life just ended in the street. Tyranny is demanding obedience while shredding due process and calling it order.
And all you so-called "freedom lovers" are fucking fine with it, as long as it's brown people, immigrants, protesters, or anyone you've already dehumanized. Turns out "don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them." You weren't afraid of tyranny.
You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely.
"Just comply" isn't a principle. It's cowardice dressed up as common sense. It's the language of people who have already accepted that the state gets to decide who deserves rights and who doesn't. And once you make that deal, don't act shocked when the line moves, because it always fuckin…

One little thing you can do if you’re feeling helpless tonight: throw a few bucks to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. They’re reportedly stretched thin for obvious reasons and could use some help if you can offer it.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

It's not the biggest problem the party faces, but Democrats need to get over the tendency to look at obviously sociopathic and unprincipled elected officials and say "I may not agree with him on everything, but he is good at his job." Mostly because those guys also ALWAYS suck at their jobs.

goes without saying that most of the reason the democrats aren't doing anything to stop these guys is they mostly just want to be these guys

Peters and Slotkin both approved this lunatic.

NASCAR screwed themselves out of another three wide photo finish. Unbelievable.

I do plenty of complaining about NASCAR on Fox but them continuing their side-by-side commercial streak is awesome. I don't think we've missed a single green flag lap this season. A huge improvement.

Credit to Fox for using side by side for every Daytona 500 commercial break so far. It's always been frustrating how much green flag racing we miss during this race. Good stuff.

Would love to see this motherfucker name literally two current drivers (we know he knows Bubba).

Bubba winning after all this bullshit would feed families.

Not the greatest start for Fox. Not that I expected any improvement or anything.

Could we maybe teach Chris Myers how to pronounce the name of one of the star drivers in the field rather than make a joke about it every time he says it?

I would pay so much money to have the option to turn the announcers off on a broadcast.

Jamie Little in the booth.
Michael Waltrip in existence.
Two mentions of "truckers" in the first 90 seconds.
Fox just begging viewers to turn the broadcast off.

Just let them run to the line. It was five more seconds. NASCAR is their own worst enemy.

OK, I've seen like three ads for this guy doing a half-baked trump impersonation to promote his comedy special during NASCAR yesterday and today and I can guarantee you, the right is not actually getting better at comedy. The end of the NASCAR on Fox season can't come soon enough.
