It’s astounding to me that every San Francisco tech bro feels they need $10 million to escape the permanent underclass when their only hobbies are buying hoodies and going on hikes.
Euros: Wait, I thought this country was a gun ridden hellscape. What do you mean everything is nice and the stadiums are incredible?
Americans: Wait, I thought you were all poor. How can you all fly overseas and spend six weeks not working just watching soccer games?
Here’s a photo of National Guard folks in my DC neighborhood huddling under an awning on Saturday to protect themselves from mist. They wander the streets in bored foursomes. Please let them go home to their families and communities.

Seniors are already the wealthiest age group in America. Washington spends 6x as much on seniors as people under 25. So state and local govts moving in the same direction is totally absurd. Empty pandering to win a primary.
"You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman...you cannot become a German or a Turk... But anyone from any corner of the world can come to America to live and become an American."

This is exactly the part of the AOS debate getting missed.
This isn't only about immigrants' rights. It's about US citizens too. Roughly 1 in 5 married couples in the US includes a spouse born abroad. That's not a fringe group, it's 21% of married couple households.
When an American marries someone here lawfully on a visa, adjustment of status is how their spouse gets a green card without leaving the country.
Take that away and you are telling US citizens their husband or wife has to leave the US to process a visa abroad. They spend months (and often years) apart, and there is no guarantee they are allowed back in.
If there are US citizen kids, you are now separating them from a parent too.
That's not just an immigrant problem. That's a US citizen losing the right to live in their own country with the family they built here, even though their spouse followed every rule.
In addition to many factual errors, the DNC report does not discuss:
- Inflation
- Perceptions of Biden's age
- Immigration
- How Biden dropping out impacted Harris
- Elderly voters and how they voted
- Trans people, in any capacity
- Palestine
People need to be fired for this.
