Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again. These two gotta go.

“We’ve got beavers for your late night viewing pleasure.” Phrasing, espn. Phrasing.

not true

Cannot get over the imagery of crying about being called a Nazi while you stand in front of a police tank.

The way the mainstream media is treating Charlie Kirk’s bigotry is the way a highly dysfunctional family treats racist crazy pedo grandpa. “Oh come on, that’s just how he is, he doesn’t mean It, that doesn’t count.”

No better evidence that "The Cathedral" is fake than allegedly liberal journalists tripping over their dicks to praise, as a champion of free discourse and expression, a guy who made one of his central accomplishments a blacklist of professors

These are all people who wanted to kill their enemies before Charlie Kirk was shot, are more vocal about it now, and will keep lusting for it long after Charlie Kirk has been buried. Today’s biggest event could have been a dog farting and they would have reacted by wanting you dead.

I had no wish for him to be murdered, but I’ll harshly judge anyone who flies their flag at half staff for that hateful extremist or talks about honoring his memory. There was no honor in his life.

if u do not have anything nice to say well sometimes u are not wrong

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov's take on Kirk is the correct one: "Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it." On point. So glad Democrats are saying this.

If you had told me in 2012 that Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign manager would be posting like this 13 years later i would not have believed you

fantastic lede from sam, and the rest of it ain’t too shabby either

ICE agents view themselves as an expressly political goon squad in service of an expressly political project. When Dems get into power they need to understand this and treat ICE like a political opposition group in need of reconstruction, because that's what it is.

"edit: never mind, i figured it out"

Sounds like ICE killed a guy and then held american citizens hostage at gunpoint until they agreed to destroy the evidence

“ICE will have twice as many agents as the FBI and will have its own huge and growing prison system (which it operates independently) as its masked and un-uniformed officers continue to snatch people off of the streets and mete out violence as they see fit.” www.thebulwark.com/p/the-americ...

Logging off for the weekend, but shouting it one more time before I do: they don't believe in America. actioncookbook.substack.com/p/america-be...

now might be a good time to harden your cybersecurity. if you do only one thing listed here, use Signal.

If this story doesn’t make your blood boil, seek medical attention. There cannot be any shred of legality to this - it’s outright terrorism and the state of California should arrest and prosecute these people

Proud of you New York! Meanwhile in Oakland we just re-entrenched the gerontocracy, so not everyone has learned the lesson. Maybe one day.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

All of us:

Doesn’t say it in the article but doesn’t take a genius to connect the dots that he’s totally struck out trying to find someone to buy a piece of the A’s to build the new stadium and is now instead cashing out here because nobody with a brain wanted to put money into Vegas deal

Needless to say if this was Joe Biden there would be two weeks of wall to wall breathless commentary expressing concern about his mental acuity.

After the assassination, murder, and attempted murder in Minnesota, the Dem governor — who was also reportedly also on the alleged killer’s hit list — urged his state’s people not to go out to the No King’s protest, fearing that the gunman would target them as well. People showed up in droves anyway

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

So proud to be a part of this amazing morning. Location ocean beach San Francisco #nokings

this 48-second video of a protest in ontario, california is top-tier storytelling 🤌🏽🤌🏽

This is the lede. There is a woman on camera in charge of a lot of people with guns. She says they are going to liberate a domestic population center from democratically elected officials and violate too many laws to count in the process. I have zero time for anything else.

Shut down the Senate.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

500K Mexican-Americans served in the U.S. armed forces in WWII, as did millions of 1st and 2nd-gen immigrants, and 109K noncitizens. Mexican immigrant Macario Garcia won the Medal of Honor in Normandy. When he returned to the US, he was was arrested for trying to eat at a segregated restaurant.

A fun thing about the NBA now is how a guy can take 3.9 steps while holding the ball and not only is it not traveling but neither the opponents nor the opposing fans even think to complain.

Piers Morgan is a POS but man is this interview wild - based on the way her tone changes I don't think she realized the implications of what she said until after she said it. If you look closely you can see her realize she is absolutely cooked in real time.
