Please tell me why I shouldn’t fear this.

I keep chanting “The only thing to fear is fear itself” from FDR.

Disgusting! No other country names military bases after people who conducted war against them.

The Army is moving quickly to bring back the original names of bases named for Confederates
The Trump Administration is skirting a federal law by finding new namesakes for the bases with the same last names as Confederate soldiers.

The government salary has power over immigrants. The goal is to control the Ray of us and remove our rights. According to the US Constitution, everyone has a right to due process!

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process.

This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

I don’t think people should engage in violence and vandalism and I don’t think federal agents should provoke people to engage in violence and vandalism. Too many law enforcement officers sworn to protect and serve now look and act like they are in Fallujah.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

...and suddenly there is deep concern for people to have a legitimate security clearance. Unlike all of the 20 year old DOGE incels who are sleazing around in the government... or, Pete Hegseth, or Patel himself. None of them have legitimate "security clearances."

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles.

Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Trump's proposed data-sharing deal with Palantir would be an appalling attack on our privacy.

It goes hand-in-hand with his attacks on habeas corpus.

Liberals and conservatives should agree on this: we don't want mass surveillance or erosions of our civil liberties.
