I will say, watching Blanche, Scalise, Bessent, and Noem today, that it's clear the administration knows it's losing. The combo of "This was a tragedy"/"Who can really tell what's on that video?"/"But he had a gun"/"This would only happen in Minneapolis" was flailing and panicky. They're scared.

This administration is never more dangerous than when it knows it's losing a public-relations war, because the only two responses it ever makes are 1) pretend it won but quickly pivot or 2) double down. It's hard to know which way these bottomlessly evil people will go. We're in for a fateful week.>
These monsters have worked for decades to create an America in which it's perfectly okay for civilians to walk around with a loaded weapon, and now they're saying if you have a gun at a protest, the state can murder you.
For anyone out there who wishes I would stay in my lane: I would LOVE a world in which I can just post about old Columbo episodes and Ross Macdonald novels and the history of best supporting actress and my next book. I just need several conditions to be met first. Let us work toward them together!

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.
"Please get the truth out about our son."
You can help to stop it by voting against the funding bill. Will you do that?
I hope Democratic senators and congressmen understand, out of pure lizard-brain self-interest if moral decency happens to be unavailable, what is at stake for them if they don't handle this the right way. This is a true "If not now, when?" moment.
No. They do not "appear to" contradict it. They contradict it.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.
Here is a photo he used for several accounts.
The Strib has identified him. Alex Pretti. Another 37-year-old executed for standing up for our immigrant neighbors. For shame.

Nope, I don't think he's rational. But I think one of the very few things he understands with some clarity is the impact of TV--and to him this is TV.
I'm not saying that to cheer ppl up; I think Trump is more dangerous than ever, especially in situations like this in which he screwed up and desperately needs to have people believe he didn't. But the idea that this is all part of his grand plan? No. All this video is bad for him and he knows it.
I'm seeing a lot of "This is exactly what Trump wants" about Minneapolis. I don't believe that's the case. He and Vance and Miller had the racist daydream that video of black Somalis being snatched off the streets of nice white Minneapolis would play well. He got this instead. >
I think the effect of posts like yours is to discourage people from voting. If that isn't your intention, great.
What does this contribute?
"Just stay cool and don't make trouble until the midterms" is not going to cut it as an opposition response to a murderous regime whose masked thugs are killing people in the streets and then attempting to round up witnesses and destroy evidence.
The rumors do not play on homophobia but on hypocrisy. Graham is a powerful man who helps to lead a party that has defined itself as an enemy of gay rights. Pointing out that he has debased himself by selling out his identity to a party whose voters dehumanize people like him is more than fair.
BRB, getting my Time Machine out of storage.
Thanks for this!
