Yeah she’s doing a bang-up job of countering this administration, no question there. Incredible work really.

Take a look at Baltimore, Ferguson, and Standing Rock if you want an answer.
US police are an enforcement arm of the white supremacist state. If they want to be considered human beings, they can quit or turn the guns around on their fellow officers when they start attacking the people. Until then, I’m not going to grant them that consideration.
More constructive than any of them deserve
You’re right — one side spits in the face of the oppressed directly, the other wears a smile and says kind words (sometimes) while it knifes them in the back.
Thing is the US has never not been an authoritarian state, it just can’t pretend anymore. Fuck Trump, fuck Biden, and fuck the US.
Biden’s plans call for giving $300,000,000 to the police — let’s not pretend that clown has a single worthwhile idea when it comes to ending the systematic brutalization of oppressed populations in the US.
Biden’s own fucking plans call for throwing $300,000,000 at police departments so they can hire more jackboots to crush oppressed people in the US. It’s almost impossible to express just how wrong the figure he is for this moment.
Wow...a medical examiner lied? Next you’re gonna tell me every aspect of our criminal justice system, even/especially those superficially designed to guarantee “objectivity” and “accountability,” simply ends up supporting the worst abuses perpetrated by that system!
Respectfully, I don’t see how adding another former cop with a “problematic” (at best) record — someone who was involved at the highest levels of the carceral state — to the ticket represents a solution here.
Past century? Someone’s being generous!
Every prosecutor has a similar record to Klobuchar.
Hm, remember when Obama called the people who rose up after Freddie Gray was murdered by pigs in Baltimore “thugs” because a poor innocent CVS was damaged? Or when his response to the horrorshow in Ferguson was to publicly shrug at the decision not to charge Darren Wilson for the killing of Michael Brown and send in…
Whoo boy, the notion that the US — which again, has committed literal genocide, routinely abuses wide swathes of its people in service of capital, exports violence and death around the word to secure its power, and incarcerates both a greater percentage of its population and a greater number of people period than any…
Well, I think that’s kind of an absurd line to draw given violent protests created the “American context,” and the violent actions I was referring to that hastened the end of slavery were Nat Turner’s, John Brown’s, and so many others. The modern LGBT rights movement dates back to anti-police riots, during the civil…
This country literally only exists because of violent protest, and every single advance in its history — extension of the franchise, the end of chattel slavery, the civil rights movement, LGBTQ equality, labor power — has been the result of violent and nonviolent actions operating in conjunction. In fact, it’s only…
Oh I think I can answer that one! Never

US police have, from their origins in runaway slave patrols on down to the present day, served as the enforcement arm of the white supremacist settler state; same as it ever was, right on down to the former cops (prosecutor) like Klobuchar offering up milquetoast conciliatory pabulum instead of a call for these pigs’…
