You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

from the perspective of someone who might want to be president, the best time to run for the white house is now, not later. so if AOC is thinking about it — if the white house is her ambition — then her best bet is to throw her hat in the ring

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

The people who thought Bad Bunny was divisive are, if anything, more incensed by “we are america,” in their terms it’s the most offensive and outrageous thing he could have said

Massie on Howard Lutnick: "He should just resign. Three people in Great Britain resigned for less than what we've seen Howard Lutnick lie about. He clearly went to the island, if we believe what's in these files. He was in business with Jeffrey Epstein."

My law firm intervened in every case DOJ has filed to gain access to states' sensitive voting data. So far we have won several and lost none. But this is going to be a long fight for free and fair elections.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.

It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

I guess they are pretty upset.

For some reason.

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home.

Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

‘Backing down isn’t an option’: Minnesota ICE shootings mobilize Americans to join ICE observer groups The killings of Minneapolis residents Renee Good and Alex Pretti have inspired people across the US to document federal agents’ activities in their communities

for over 3 weeks, I've spoken to ICE watchers and organizers across the country: first right after Renee Good's killing — then 2 weeks into my reporting, Alex Pretti was killed.

ICE watchers are being detained and harassed — but they're also stopping ICE abductions and inspiring others to join them

If you read the victim statements, Epstein repeatedly told both the girls he was raping and the procurers of victims (some of whom were both: "no Black girls."

And that's on top of his eugenics, and his deep and vast collaborations with Bannon.

He was a white supremacist to the core.

ICE and CBP agents seem to enjoy gratuitously breaking glass—from car windows to store fronts to homes. It’s an expression of unchecked power and dominance: “We’re in charge. We break and shatter what we want.”

And nights of broken glass have been a harbinger of worse to come.

Over half of the vote now reporting in the Minnesota #HD64A (Harris+71):

Meg Luger-Nikolai (DFL)- 95.2%
Dan Walsh (R)- 4.8%

Not everyday you see an over 20 point overperformance in a district that backed a Presidential candidate by over 70 points, but today is one of those days

Non-masked MN National Guard are out handing out hot chocolate, coffee and donuts to protesters. One simple act has de-escalated the situation and helped gain the trust of people. See the difference between professional soldiers and the pretend tough guys in CBP and ICE?

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Abolish ICE is not enough.

Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.

We need prosecutions and trials.

Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Screenshot of an X post from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (name truncated) saying: “You are defending the open killing of everyday Americans for exercising their Constitutional rights.” It continues: “First, the mother of a 6 year old child. Now, an ICU nurse to veterans. Both shot at nearly point blank range. All without reflection or remorse. People will not forget this.”

Screenshot of an X.com post by JD Vance (@JDVance) that begins, “When I was in Minneapolis, I heard a number of crazy stories. But near the top of the list:” He then claims two off-duty ICE and CBP officers going to dinner were doxed, their location revealed, the restaurant mobbed, the officers locked inside, and local police refused to respond to pleas for help; he says other federal agents eventually came to their aid.

Screenshot of a continuation text block stating this is a “taste” of what’s happening in Minneapolis because state and local officials refuse to cooperate with immigration enforcement, claiming they “created the chaos” leading to a tragedy and political grandstanding. It ends: “The solution is staring everyone in the face. I hope authorities in Minneapolis stop this madness.”

AOC reads Vance and his whining to filth.

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

I spent the last year writing a book about the ridiculous demands of what it means to be masculine. But a guy who takes care of people who served our country, asks a woman “are you ok?” When she is in distress and looks out for his vulnerable neighbors seems like a pretty good role model for a man.

strange to me that a lot of people on this website simultaneously agree that the administration is run by incompetents who struggle to carry out their agenda without major political blowback AND that they’ll pull off a complex and sophisticated effort to rig elections and prevent defeat in November
