American conservatives will look you right in the eye with a straight face and tell you that complete and utter subservience to masked federal police is patriotism, anything else deserves being executed in the street, and tax dollars for healthcare is tyranny.

The military assault on Venezuela, the shooting of a woman by an ICE agent, the launch of the White House’s new revisionist website about January 6—these three events convey a powerful and unsettling message from Trump and his crew:
Violence is ours to use, at home and abroad, to get what we want.
Violence is ours to use, at home and abroad, to get what we want.
The Trump doctrine: Violence is us

This would be a good moment for top editors in our major news organizations to call a meeting to announce to their staff that Trump has lost his mind and you don’t have to cover him like he’s normal anymore.

What pisses me off the most is the right (and especially the 2A nuts) spent decades crying about the threat of government jack booted thugs cracking down on citizens and now that it is LITERALLY HAPPENING those are the very people cheering on these masked thugs.
I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

Dear media covering Homeland Security's killing of a woman in Minneapolis,
Homeland Security has routinely lied about violence against the public. It was caught lying repeatedly in Chicago. A federal judge determined that Homeland Security lied.
Share any government statements with that context.

This is immoral, illegal, and insane.
A Mad King has usurped the power of Congress—which represents the American people. That is, he has seized power that belongs to you and me collectively. He has declared war without consultation with or approval from Congress. And with no imminent threat. This is a profound betrayal of the republic.

The “fun” thing about the kennedy center freakout is that conservatives have been carving out “creative” exceptions to anti discrimination laws so they can be bigots to ordinary people just trying to make a purchase, but if actual artists don’t want to perform for the god king they must be punished

It’s ok if you’re a Republican!
Hillary’s “basket of deplorables” speech *defended* conservatives.
Paraphrasing: “Some call all Republicans racist, homophobic, and otherwise bigoted, but that’s unfair to millions. It’s only half, the rest are good people.”
But the press made calling an openly bigoted campaign bigoted a scandal.

Kind of wild how the take that some of Trump's supporters were "deplorable" was some huge scandal, but regularly screaming about "radical left scum" is just a thing he'll say with no media backlash.

So I have the cover story in next month's TNR.
I interviewed the heads of police groups; immigration defense attorneys, ex-judges and ex-prosecutors; former DOJ and DHS officials, and the former head of Border Patrol.
They're all horrified at what we've seen, and they all fear what's coming.
