“More and more cabinet members — Rubio, Miller, Noem — live on military bases now, & it's another parallel to Iraq, where the administration lived in the Green Zone. There’s something deeply unhealthy about a society where leaders are literally shut off from the communities that they govern.”
Don Moynihan on "Purge, Merge, and Surge"
"Instead of surging in Iraq, it’s happening here in American cities."

This is the top headline on CNN. A good warning sign that your country may be becoming a dictatorship is when your plain-jane straight news networks start saying “Our country is becoming a dictatorship”

Pence: "State ownership of business is very common in China & Russia. Taking a percentage of sales of Nvidia, taking a percentage of stock of Intel is inconsistent w/ free market principles, and I think it's taken our country to a very perilous place and I think we need to resist that very strongly"

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Andy is a terrific reporter who has covered all sides of this story. Don’t get mad at him because he’s following all the leads even when they include the Clintons.

“I don’t know why they’re attacking Zohran. I think it’s stupid.”

@gallego.senate.gov says Dems can disagree with certain policies but attacking Mamdani when he’s bringing in new ideas and exciting people and “shrinking the tent” is shortsighted.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

The possibility of untrained, unqualified people swarming restaurants, shops, factories, churches, and homes looking for immigrants, all with the imprimatur—not to mention the qualified immunity—of federal law enforcement, has never been so real.
