The number of people Trump says he'll deport keeps going up. It's now 20 million, 50% higher than the largest estimates of the undocumented population. It's clear sign that distinguishing legal from illegal won't be a priority. They're just going to round up people they don't want to be here.

It is amazing to me that the most powerful and best-paid people in political media are still caught up in the idea of A Striking New Tone From Trump. I wrote this in 2020, but the idea goes back to 2017. At this point it says more about them than it does about him. newrepublic.com/article/1571...

Progressive values and Democrats are not responsible for this violence. There is no both sides here. Violent rhetoric is the bread and butter of modern extreme conservatism. And lax gun laws put a semiautomatic rifle in the hands of a gunman.

I love this. The Post clearly called an NY bureau FBI guy or a Secret Service dude who wasn't there to ask what's up and he was like "oh he's a Chinese guy" and they just ran it.

Terrifying journalistic bullshit from @nypost, which posted an article claiming that the shooter was a “Chinese man” (thanks @paulayoo for grabbing), then replaced it with a version that the shooter was “identified only as a white male” shortly thereafter — WITHOUT flagging the correction.

Biden uses public power in the public interest. You might have some alternative legal/economic theory of how to achieve the public interest could be served, but Biden is operating according to a principled approach. Trump wants to use public power to solicit political support and attack his enemies.

We all know how to stop it. The people researching it just had their work subjected to a laser-focused smear campaign by one political party and news bosses fell in line instead of being labeled "unobjective" by some of the dumbest cretins in America. Now that work has been de facto criminalized.

One thing that I think is being under evaluated is how many Biden voters who really want him to be the candidate will be pretty pissed if it seems like he’s being pushed out, bc their primary win isn’t being respected.

I guess my ultimate Let's Not Fuck Up Democracy position is that you can't switch out a candidate that primary voters have selected by a wide margin solely on the basis of "electability" as determined by technocrats. I would rather Kamala as a candidate but that's not what people voted for
