The ruling party wants to arrest members of the opposition party who are trying to stop them from rigging the mid-term elections.
This is not something which happens in a democracy. MAGA is trying to create a one party dictatorship.

Republicans have made ICE the largest law enforcement agency in the country. Democratic governors, mayors, and lawmakers have the power to stop secret police tactics like abductions by masked ICE agents: www.bluestatedefiance.org/no-secret-po...

This from the man who won the election because of affordability.
Betrayal.
The whole premise of the bill is that it fuels growth. The U.S. seen 3x economic growth since 1980. Yet overall purchasing power for the average family has been essentially the same, and key things like housing and education have skyrocketed in recent years.
Who still believes the myth?
What happened to the passion to reduce the deficit?
To the fury against increasing costs of living?
To the rage against insider deals and corruption in the "swamp"?
To the righteous cries for free speech?
Just a thought: maybe it wasn't ever actually really about these things.
Re: Zohran - This is how we defeat Trumpism - present an ACTUAL plan to make things more affordable by taxing the rich and subsidizing people's basic needs.
Meanwhile, we are waiting for the exploitation of our natural resources to decrease gas prices to somehow decrease the cost of everything.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until itβs done.
My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.
I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.
Congratulations!!!

There is no end to come to where somehow the use of force has made all conflict end. Any temporary "peace" will only last until the perpetrator needs to prove its power again.

Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels
Awesome turnout!
