Not saying this is you, but for a very long time, the moderate argument is, “we can’t get a total victory here, so we shouldn’t bother resisting Republicans” and, frankly, I’m done with that line of thinking. If it makes Republicans life harder, it must be done. If they have to explain to their voting base why they aren’t willing to make ICE agents unmask in order to keep TSA staffed at airports, that is worth making them do. I don’t expect a miracle, I expect a spine

I agree. Our rights are not a place for compromise.
Agreed. Totally agree.
If only one side ever compromises, it’s not compromise, it’s capitulation.
I’m more in the way of limiting expectations as well as pointing out that every measure, every appointment, every vote is a new battle.
(I may be pissed at klobechar for voting to confirm appointments.)
I feel like most folks dislike TSA enough that them being understaffed may be seen as a bonus.
