I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Our dying economy?
Our ditching due process?
Our corruption?

For every Millionaire that gets a tax cut:
- 19 people will be Kicked off their Healthcare
- 6 people will Lose their Food Assistance
This is a Terrible Deal for Americans!

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.
If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

there is no rioting. nobody is looting. Nobody is burning random stuff down. This is just americans rising up to protect their neighbors from the ICE brownshirts.
I guess no one’s ever going to learn the lesson that rioting in the streets almost always benefits the right wing in American politics.
Save me your speeches about Watts. It’s been almost a perfect record since 1968.
