Interesting results in the new NY Times Sienna College poll. Any new support for Republicans among nonwhite voters that appeared in 2024 has evaporated. But also, there is no college/non-college educational polarization among nonwhite voters. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...

just thinking again about how MAGAโ€™s attempt to suppress all criticism of Charlie Kirk created a backlash so intense that he is now probably the most abjectly Internet-defiled person in human history

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed.

Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.

If confirmed, this really is a new low, where a state agency is altering image of real events with an intent to deceive the public.

I would argue that the case for dismantling ICE has, at this point, virtually nothing to do with larger questions of immigration enforcement and reform, it's just clearly incompatible with a free and democratic society to maintain a secret police force with sweeping and arbitrary authority.

Gaming doesnโ€™t count as screen time. Gaming is books. Unless itโ€™s on your phone - that is screen time. Movies are books unless they are Marvel, who produce screen time. Television is screen time.

The president is a mad king threatening war against Americaโ€™s closest allies because heโ€™s got a psychological fixation on an empty frozen island and a Nobel Peace Prize snub and the best the media or opposition can manage is โ€œTrump changes Americaโ€™s priorities, perhaps for the worseโ€

It's cool that these guys just use pepper spray casually now, against people who are wholly within their rights, without a moment's hesitation. Several shots of them using it as they climb into their cars and drive away, not even a pretense of urgency or need. Just a parting "fuck you" to them.

"Abolish ICE" is not a hard thing to explain, at all. It's bizarre that anyone would claim that it is!

This and Mamdaniโ€™s revocation of all EOs after Adamsโ€™s corrupt bargain are the template moving forward. No nibbling around the edges; total bulldozing.

I donโ€™t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.
