Deportations under Obama were higher than under Bush and Trump personally squashed bipartisan legislation pushed by Biden to tighten up border control. But go on about how Democrats don't enforce border control

I don't know about the other parts of being Speaker, but I think AOC would be great at leveraging the media attention that is naturally directed at the position.

The only thing standard about it seems to be the little metal oval you shove into things.

It's weird, but I don't think we should be dismissive of it. Mining is a dangerous and polluting business here on earth. The Moon would be a great base of operations for mining if we can overcome the issues with living and working there.

Accepting the lie that Democrats don't enforce borders. It's pure bullshit.

"We'll stop doing the thing that makes us look really bad so you'll agree to give us more money to do it again when the heat dies down"

@democrats.org take note: A LOT of people are angry and will vote in the primaries for whoever promises to hold the GOP accountable for their crimes

Justice isn’t ICE leaving Minnesota.

Justice is ICE being held accountable for murdering Americans.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

this is why its super important for democratic politicians and liberals to *make noise* about things. most people do not follow politics, certainly not like we junkies do. when you make a ton of noise about stuff it bleeds over into normie world and shapes opinions.

The fact that some democratic governors are going to visit Trump at the White House despite all that has happened tells you a lot about the rot at the root of the party. It isn’t even about Trump being petty and inviting only Republicans. The man is a monster who literally murders Americans.

We can’t tolerate another cycle of Democrats turning the page on these guys. We did it with Bush, Reagan, Bush II, Nixon and Trump I.

Stop turning the page and throw the goddamned book. Lock them up.

every time i see some outlet talk about a fight between trump and fox news i think, you fools, you know nothing

I don't think Newsom could beat either Harris or Pritzker. His friendliness with corporations and conservatives has turned a lot of Democratic voters off.

As I recall, Biden stepped back in 2016 because of the death of his son. That primary would've been a lot more interesting if he had run

I'm so biased towards legs that I'm 4" taller than my wife when we're standing and 0.5" shorter when we're sitting down.

All legs. my father and I are the same height, but I literally cannot sit in a car after he's been driving it.

And be sued into oblivion for it

Gene Simmons Blasts the Hall of Fame for Honoring Hip-Hop: 'It Doesn't Speak My Language' Kiss frontman Gene Simmons has again fired shots at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for inducting hip-hop artists like N.W.A and Grandmaster Flash.

This is a pet peeve of mine, too. We should either have multiple HOFs for different genre's or rename the Rock 'n Roll HOF to recognize that it's now more inclusive.

Your regular reminder that John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett, and Neil Gorsuch are corrupt Christian nationalists who have used SCOTUS to undermine our democracy.

Do not elect a single Democrat who does not pledge to expand and fix the Court.

Being a single Dem doing something just makes you a convenient excuse for rest of the party when they are asked why they aren't doing anything.

AI isn't going to replace jobs, jobs will adjust to incorporate AI and there will be more capacity to do more things. The real thing that is killing jobs is allowing so much wealth to concentrate into the hands of a few people who have no reason to invest to improve their lives

The last I saw the Ukrainians seem to just be using nets to catch the drones.

Privatizing public goods has always been a scam

Why bother answering questions that would make you look bad if there's no penalty for ignoring them?

Seems like a lot of what Republicans do is designed to hold onto control of the South rather than expand their coalition.

That's the entire purpose of the GOP and the Democrats only only better because they spread the money a little more widely.

There is literally no better example of textbook fascistic thinking than "Who cares about human rights when the rich are doing so very well"

The fact that Democrats aren't threatening revolution due to the lack of accountability for this murder shows they are complicit

I think every democrat standing silently and turning their backs while he talks would be pretty powerful, but they'd never do it.
