on the balance i think partisan gerrymandering is bad but the only way it ends is if democrats weaponize it against republicans everywhere they can. wiping out republican lawmakers in blue states might bring the GOP to the table to end the practice.

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

Given Beshearโ€™s veto seems likely he would challenge in federal &/or state court- at least delaying an appointment

Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Donโ€™t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you donโ€™t like

Today @cato.org published our report providing the first look at the fiscal effects of the wave of legal & illegal immigration over the last 3 decades. It shows immigrants created surpluses every year, by a combined $14.5 trillion, even as deficits grew www.cato.org/white-paper/...

Republicans love adding seats to state Supreme Courts! They've done it three times in recent years. This latest court-packing plan will shift Utah's high court far to the right and possibly flip rulings on abortion and gerrymandering.

Democrats should take note that Rs have deemed this acceptable!

FBI Source Claimed Trump Visited Epstein Just Before Announcing Presidential Run An informant told investigators that the convicted pedophile remained โ€œvery closeโ€ to Trump after he became president.

The confidential source alleged that Donald Trump remained โ€œvery closeโ€ with the convicted child sex offender even after his election.

When one mother was taken by ICE, another stepped in to donate breastmilk Moms in Minneapolis are donating diapers, food and time to help families who have been ripped apart by ICE.

A newborn in Minneapolis hadnโ€™t eaten for a day and a half

Her mother risked going into work when ICE took her away. At home waiting for her were her 16yo daughter and the 3mo baby

The teen tried to feed the baby, who was exclusively breastfed, formula to no avail 19thnews.org/2026/02/minn...

Important clip here. Non-political people are out on the streets of Minneapolis to defend their neighbors peacefully. Authoritarians and anarchists are lighting firesโ€”achieving nothing and in fact setting back nonviolent efforts. And people like Will are out filming them asking them to be peaceful.

"Since 9/11, the culture of ICE and CBP has meant that the agencies have been what you might call a fascist-secret-police-in-waiting, troubled agencies simply waiting for an ambitious would-be authoritarian."-Graff

Doing precisely what they were trained to do. @klobuchar.senate.gov this is why abolition, not โ€œtrainingโ€ or โ€œguardrails,โ€ is the only answer. #DefundDHS

Accountability for ICE and CBP However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is โ€” the reality is far far worse.

The issue here isn't new recruits. These are longstanding agents shooting civilians on the street. Here's @vermontgmg.bsky.social on abuses at ICE and especially CBP: the US sees more crimes PER CAPITA - that is, per US resident - from these immigration officers than from all illegal immigrants. 5/

Trumpโ€™s main demand with tariffs: say words that give Trump positive headlines.

To the extent itโ€™s an actual strategy, itโ€™s like getting vague announcements to lease some units in a new building then telling other investors itโ€™s going fast.

Except international relations isnโ€™t scammy real estate.

1/ Ian Austin has since been re-arrested along with Don Lemon, which he believes is bc the video we made of him (below) criticizing the Trump regime and encouraging fellow vets to wake up had gotten millions of views.
