No warrant, no ID. Complete chaos and lawlessness. So if a stranger shows up and grabs me off the bus, I’m supposed to assume it’s ICE?
Holy shit! This is New York City. No ID, doesn't identify himself, trying to kidnap a passenger... Who are these fucking Nazis? 😳👇

The agency we invented two decades ago becomes the secret police of a totalitarian surveillance state. We’re closer than we think.

We’re entering the “exploitation phase” of AI-enabled pricing. Delta is exploring the possibility of charging an additional $40 per plane ticket based on passengers' personal data. But this will reach far beyond airfare. “This isn’t going to stop at Delta. The airline industry is going to export these practices to other industries,” our @owenslindsay1 told @business.

Sen. Bernie Sanders responds to Sen. Schumer saying Democrats are united. “You need an agenda. United around what? Are we united around guaranteeing healthcare to all people? Are we united in tackling a corrupt campaign finance system?"

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed. Put simply: right-wing has narrative dominance. My org (@mmfa) did this study and been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

The Democratic Party needs a major transformation. It can no longer be a top-down, billionaire-funded, consultant-driven party. It must be a multi-generational, multi-racial working class party. In a time of growing oligarchy & authoritarianism, that’s the only path to victory.

We're all gonna support grassroots-funded Democratic primaries! Right?
Fun fact: Even 15 years ago, Chuck Schumer received 15% of all Wall Street donations given to members of Congress. Fund Democratic primaries: secure.actblue.com/donate/ju…

This is a signal to the American people that Democrats will not fight for them. We have to be using our votes for leverage right now. To protect the social services folks are asking us to. To invest in our communities. Otherwise Republicans will just keep running us over.

I shared this note with the Washington Post team this morning: I’m writing to let you know about a change coming to our opinion pages. We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets. We’ll cover other topics too of course, but viewpoints opposing those pillars will be left to be published by others. There was a time when a newspaper, especially one that was a local monopoly, might have seen it as a service to bring to the reader’s doorstep every morning a broad-based opinion section that sought to cover all views. Today, the internet does that job. I am of America and for America, and proud to be so. Our country did not get here by being typical. And a big part of America’s success has been freedom in the economic realm and everywhere else. Freedom is ethical — it minimizes coercion — and practical — it drives creativity, invention, and prosperity. I offered David Shipley, whom I greatly admire, the opportunity to lead this new chapter. I suggested to him that if the answer wasn’t “hell yes,” then it had to be “no.” After careful consideration, David decided to step away. This is a significant shift, it won’t be easy, and it will require 100% commitment — I respect his decision. We’ll be searching for a new Opinion Editor to own this new direction. I’m confident that free markets and personal liberties are right for America. I also believe these viewpoints are underserved in the current market of ideas and news opinion. I’m excited for us together to fill that void. Jeff

STOP asking Hakeem Jeffries to bend the knee to his own Party's voters. He only has two knees and those knees are for AIPAC and Wall Street !!!
Hakeem Jeffries complains that "the extreme left protest me more than they protest Donald Trump...I think because I've chosen not to bend the knee to either people on the far left and certainly not to Donald Trump and the far right."
