Amin Abdullah was the security guard shot and killed in the mass shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego.
San Diego’s police chief said Amin, “played a pivotal role” in preventing the attack from being far worse.

It would be cool to have a legislature that acted to defend its own constitutional prerogatives and, maybe as a treat, the interests of the people it represents too.

People often defend Schumer's limp messaging to me by saying he needs to reach out to the uncommitteds and the undecideds and the fence-sitters.
But you can't do that AT THE EXPENSE OF YOUR BASE. Because if you do, this happens:

This is a huge deal. After years of leading in fundraising, Dem small donors are (rightly) pissed off at the spam texts and emails, as well as at congressional leadership. Meanwhile, GOP billionaire money is hitting record levels. Perfect storm.

I think the Attorney General should be the chief law enforcement officer of the United States, primarily focused on enforcing U.S. federal statutes.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity.
They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

Usha Vance announced that she is expecting their fourth child and praised military doctors for the world class healthcare she's receiving.
The disgusting hypocrisy of course is that while she praises world class government healthcare, her husband is fighting to gut healthcare from tens of millions.
