With the arrests of journalists, ICE, FBI election office raids, threats to arrest Obama, charges on Comey and Powell and James, I can’t exactly what the threat level is.
Is this a competitive autocracy and Democracy is over, or is this a hapless blundering one making moves that never truly work?

Current federal law requires schools to verify free and reduced lunch eligibility for 3% of recipients, but a proposed bill would require them to verify every student.

Fascism on the march in my country, the state I reside in, and the town I call home, isn't a call to action. It is an existential imperative. Fascism isn't something you fight as much as you just try to survive. As a nation it is something we should have prevented. We failed. 🧵

Btw, a fun part of politics is people on Illinois subreddits keep referring to me as "Kat's husband, the millionaire owner of a big media company," because of my newspaper's 4.3 trillion daily readers and 500,000-person staff. I want to make this clear: I am no lowly millionaire. I have trillions.

Yep.
ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.
A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.
ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

Fun fact from research for my book on the deep-sea: The CSS Hunley, notable for being the first submarine to sink a warship, sank on three separate occasions and killed more Confederate traitors than Union Soldiers.

I'm baffled by this. Charlie Kirk didn't stand for anything, certainly not free speech. He died trying to legitimize a lie designed to rob people of their rights, identity, and by virtue of that, their freedom of speech as well. He wasn't a good person.

I'm not afraid of heights, or falling ... but the social anxiety I would have had with an audience? Climbing skill aside, this guy is incredible just for his focus on a task and ability to put that aside. I would have frozen up and fallen off like a limp noodle five feet from the ground. 😂

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

Here's a gift link to the New York's Times' timeline of Homeland Security's killing of Alex Pretti. It shows clearly what actually happened and makes it abundantly clear that the Trump regime is lying to cover up a murder.
Timeline: How the Shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti Unfolded (Gift Article)
A moment-by-moment analysis of video from the scene shows that Mr. Pretti was already restrained when fatal shots were fired, which appears to contradict the federal government’s account of the event.
