This is the most telling Dem response -- they do not see their job as representing voters, they see their job as making sure voters do not ask for too much
A group of anti-ICE protesters in Texas were sentenced to 30 to 100 years in jail on Tuesday, after federal prosecutors accused them of being an "antifa terror cell."
The activists attended a protest and noise demonstration outside the Prairieland ICE jail in Alvarado, Texas. All nine defendants were found guilty after being tried before a federal judge in Texas.
The maximum sentences prosecutors sought in the case stand in stark contrast to the treatment of January 6 U.S. Capitol insurrectionists, says Sufia Khalid, who represented one of the defendants, Maricela Rueda.
Rueda has been sentenced to 70 years in prison for attending the demonstration, while "the average sentence in the Capitol riots, which had far more serious conduct than the Prairieland Nine defendants, was 26 months."
literally every single day some maladjusted teenager from a satanic death cult like COM, 764, TCC or O9A finds a middle school to do the call of duty Terminal level inside of and yet we only have the resources to crack down on “Antifa Terror Cells”
Jasmine Crockett is a true grifter. Conned and baited into running for Senate by Republican strategists and fake fan mail. Then ran the laziest, most abysmal primary campaign. And now won’t get on board in a pivotal race because she was somehow “wronged” (got less votes)
Ezra Klein is a serious threat to a world of true equality and justice because he is so effective at masking his service to the ruling class through (often faux) intellectual cooptation of progressive people who otherwise would support much more profound social change.
What matters most for childhood brain organization?

The answer: Socioeconomics (SES); with brain patterns pointing at sleep & stress as drivers.
Even brain-IQ associations were better explained by SES confounding.

My last rent increase was because the landlord noticed that the market rate for the area had gone up
Not because his costs went up, but because other landlords were charging more in my area and my landlord felt left out and thought I should pay him more for the same thing
I’ve never seen a party lean so heavily into hating its own voters. But also, this is rich coming from Booker who after a historic filibuster immediately voted for one of Trump’s most corrupt nominations (which is saying something!).
