Always remember. Not defeating Russia is a choice that Europeans and Americans are making. Nothing more, nothing less.

We need to listen carefully and listen closely. Trump is telegraphing his playbook to steal the 2026 elections. Here’s how he will do it. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...
Trump wants to take over voting. Mike Johnson is willing to help
Trump raised the threat to the 2026 midterm elections to an entirely new level.

Dehumanizing people is part of the playbook.
Aliyah Rahman: "I continue to hear the word 'bodies' because that is how agents refer to us—'We're bringing in a body'…'We can't use that room, there's already a body in there.' You have no reason to believe you will make it out alive if you are already being called a body."

New — I spoke to eight people who were present at the ICE protest on Saturday in Portland, Oregon when federal agents deployed tear gas and rubber bullets into a crowd of families, children, elderly and disabled people, and their pets.

These are their stories:

Trump walks out to journalists and says that Putin promised not to strike “Kyiv or other cities” for a week.

At the same time, russia is bombing several Ukrainian cities.
An apartment building is on fire in Kyiv right now. Explosions shake Kharkiv.

The Swedish right and far-right might pretend they are not into MAGA, but they use MAGA language and they drool after what MAGA does to people who are not light shades of beige.
Right wing minister visits far-right podcasters, far-right leader takes pages from Project 2025 for governing.
Quite MAGA.

There's a cognitive dissonance with people when it comes to Trump and Epstein like there was with Trump and Russia. No one wants to believe how horrifyingly bad things are.

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

You don't have to believe that the fascists are competent enough to suppress voting everywhere in 2026 or 2028. You just have to believe that they can depress minority turnout in 5-10 cities to affect entire Senate races & the Electoral College. 2024 was decided by 120K votes in 3 states, after all.

This is what Dems never seem to get. A massive immigration operation is complicated but it hasn’t stopped republicans even once. An eviction moratorium is NOWHERE NEAR AS COMPLICATED. Just fucking do it!
Someone told me the other day an eviction moratorium is complicated and I was like … I guess I don’t care. Because this (below) is the alternative.
Truly the whole city—very much including @jchavezmpls.bsky.social —is running around collecting cash, trying to meet thousands or rent deadlines, exhausting our personal fundraising networks, hugging other helpers in the bank lobby, losing sleep…and he’s posting through it.

👇🎯🧵 He's been violating the emoluments clause in plain sight since the second he first walked into the WH. He spent Biden's entire presidency not being punished for a coup attempt. Etc. Things have accelerated rapidly since January 2025, but democratic backsliding was well under way before that.
US democratic backsliding looks very fast if you mark the start at 2025. But it’s been going since 2017, so I disagree with
@donmoyn.bsky.social @jburnmurdoch.ft.com etc.

Abuse of emergency powers, normalization of bribery, de facto death of War Powers Act all term 1.

Immunity case in the interim.
New from me: It is not just that the US is experiencing democratic backsliding. Authoritarianism has emerged more quickly than in other benchmark countries.

This graph from John Burn-Murdoch sums it up. 🧵

Absolutely wild that while * gestures broadly at all this * is happening, ICE leadership is still actively telling agents oh I'm p sure you have the legal power to just arrest people willy nilly, go for it
Scoop: Federal agents were told this week that they have broader power to arrest people without a warrant, according to an internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo reviewed by The New York Times.

Not so fun fact: Tear gas isn’t a “gas”

If it’s not a gas, then what is it?

Answer: it’s an aerosol. And this distinction matters.

Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.
