Trump tried to throw Members of Congress in jail for reminding servicemembers they don't have to follow illegal orders. He is weaponizing the DOJ to silence dissent & not one Republican has stepped up to stop him. Thankfully, a grand jury rejected it. We will not be intimidated.
Trump administration fails to indict Democrats involved in 'illegal orders' video
President Donald Trump had accused six Democratic lawmakers of "seditious behavior" after they urged members of the military and intelligence communities to refuse unlawful orders.

Molecular motors are incredible machines designed by evolution

But real molecular motors don’t operate perfectly, as in stylized cartoons

Real motors are stochastic: they bind, unbind, stall, pause and occasionally go in reverse

Heres real data, not a cartoon

Meanwhile US consumer confidence has plummeted to the worst it’s been in 12 years (per Bloomberg) on worries over weakening job market and inflation

Here’s Bovino, practically gasping about a murdered US citizen’s “lack of accessible ID” as he clutches his fascist pearls

For some reason that’s been a key part of the fascist narrative - Noem made the same point

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

According to the fascist American administration this man was a “domestic terrorist”

And he planned to “massacre agents”

And thus deserved summary firing squad on the streets of Minneapolis

This was the moment they attacked him and murdered him

Who will they murder next? Will there be justice?

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

The issue w the latest ICE shooting video isn’t whether the facts will eventually prove it was/wasn’t lawful

The issue is DHS, by its actions, has shattered any confidence when we see such videos that agents are trained, DHS will share the facts and prevent it from recurring

THAT is the issue

“Senior Justice Department officials have repeatedly said there are no plans to follow the path normally taken in such situations and pursue an investigation into whether Mr. Ross, who fired multiple shots at Ms. Good, had used excessive force”

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

Blumenthal: "I'm a no vote on that spending bill unless there are conditions that require ICE to go to a judge, to get a warrant, as well as other kinds of constraints -- the use of masks, the non-identification, the unmarked cars. These secret police, totalitarian tactics need to be stopped."

Trump was never going to stop at Mark Kelly, Jerome Powell, Letitia James, or me.

Targeting Minnesota officials is just Trump’s latest abuse of the DOJ, and his most recent attempt to silence and intimidate those who stand up to him. 🧵

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

A friend who normally votes Republican recently sent me this image

Is it slowly dawning even on MAGA that Trump isn’t putting on an act to troll the libs - that he is actually an idiot and a maniac?
