Counterpoint: No.

ICE doesn’t need reform. Abolition and prosecution is the bare minimum.

And you the consumer were charged this for no reason. Awesome.

The NY Times dutifully reporting that the Supreme Court sided with Trump only 42% of the time and with Biden 54% of the time sort of leaves out the necessary context that Biden was doing normal, completely legal presidential stuff, and Trump was doing insane crimes

I know there are so many high profile absolute clowns put in charge of important agencies, but the damage Lee Zeldin is going to do is going to be horrific and unmeasureable in scope for probably a couple of decades.

The current Court majority is a classic captured court.

The Justices pick the outcome they want, and work backwards from there, inventing and disregarding legal theories on the fly in the process.

Amazing, though, that what should have been 9-0 is always 6-3, and you always know who two of them are.
Alito and Thomas aren't even bothering to render judgments anymore. They just decide what's good for Trump and defend it.

The sheer scale of the corruption - announced just today - is astounding and shameful.

the founding generation was very careful to avoid the trappings of monarchical government. That persisted into the 20th Century--it wasn't until the 20th Century that we even put historical figures on the coins!

"wages have been flat for decades" is an extremely simple, obviously true concept that explains about 80% of all handwringing op-eds and for some reason they just won't say that

Democrats should promise, today, that Melania Trump, Elon Musk and Peter Thiel will be stripped of citizenship and deported if the administration advances this effort

The orange planet closest to the sun is anxiety. The blue one is sadness, next door to the red one/anger. Seems a little derivative imo but okay.

They sent 3000 troops to arrest 4000 people. It likely cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per person on top of the permanent distrust they created for decades. What an absolute failure.

If you simply disenthrall yourself from your financially crippling addiction to fairly basic food and beverages you too can one day own a house.

[frantically raising hand] ooh, ooh. I know. Because Americans have a constitutional right to vote but don't have a right to open a bank account or drive a car.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

An underrated good the next Democratic administration could do with virtually zero actual political blowback from voters would be to come in with anti-trust laws like a wrecking ball and break up media and tech companies. It would fuck up The Other Side, too.
