This race is the opposite of an “upset”. Anyone paying any attention knew what was coming here. Imagine an incumbent member of Congress, without a scandal, getting trounced - and you begin to understand the depths of the Gaza issue with Dem voters.
She’s completely right here btw and her interlocutors have utter baby brains, thinking they are serious about the realities of the criminal justice system while betraying they don’t know jack shit
For all that on here people said about Darializa’s response here, for NY-13 voters, it beat how Adriano Espaillat handled murderers (giving them billions of dollars)
The sentences handed down today are a huge threat to the possibility of a democratic society. The prosecution is rife with constitutional violations, but 30 years in prison (more than anyone for January 6) for moving some magazines? 50 years in prison even for those not involved in planning the protest? The evidence of an illegal conspiracy is non-existent, but this is how the authoritarian dragnet targets those fighting against repression. Everyone should be learning about this case. https://t.co/XLki7OBuID
people who showed up to a protest outside an ICE facility and left when things got chaotic are getting HALF CENTURY sentences in federal court right now, my god
Toni McBride (below), is an LAPD cop who killed Daniel Hernandez in mental health crisis in 2018. Her sister Jacqueline McBride, LAPD cop, just killed a woman in Rampart. They are the 2 killer daughters of cop union mafia boss Jamie McBride who himself was involved in 6 shootings
horrifying weaponization of the criminal legal system – nobody died, all guns owned legally & only 1 of the 9 defendants fired a weapon, 3 weren't involved in planning & left when guards told them to. One didn't even attend, got 30 years for moving zines.

And it’s not just nypd. They’re the among the most egregious forces but the problem is reproduced everywhere. We can either have cities that take care of their citizens or city government as a mechanism that converts tax revenue into political payoffs for cops
It’s not sustainable. They’re a black hole for resources and almost guaranteed to produce a bona fide political crisis at least once every few years. Not saying you have to take them on right away or even first but sooner or later they’ve got to be on the menu
sorry but “surrender document” and “the U.S. will not soon recover from this” are patently psychotic things to say. Why is every major liberal talking like John Milius? The avg American’s life will not be impacted by the US not menacing Iran except their gas prices will go down
