    Ahhh the paradox of liberalism. We can’t do anything for fear they’ll do something in return!

    I want them to grow some balls. I want them to withhold funding for federal programs being misused. I want them to arrest police officers and school officials on civil rights charges that are already on the books. I don’t care if SCOTUS walks in and undoes it all. Every time they do that they add more weight to the reform SCOTUS position. I want them to look at bad police departments and tell them they can’t get free military equipment. I want to see the modern equivalent of the 101st escorting a black student to school.

    This idea that we can’t engage until we have everything lined up perfectly is just an excuse to do nothing and watch trans kids get killed. But it’s okay, we voted for the blue guy!
