There’s a lot to be angry about with mainstream media.
But the Wall Street Journal got personally and directly threatened by the President of the United States. And they said ‘fuck you’ and ran their well-sourced story anyway.

It's almost like the Dems aren't an opposition party, and mostly just want their turn at the corrupt money spigot that is running the US Government. Based on their actions so far this year, I think It being a fascist government suits a lot of them just fine.
It's amazing that 4 congressional Dems voted to make it *illegal for married women to vote*, and the rest of the Dems didn't respond "ok yeah you are not allowed to call yourself a Democrat anymore, we're not going to help fundraise for you, just go fuck yourself"

The seizure of money for the ultra-rich and the expansion of the white supremacist state are the purposes of the bill. They are the purposes of decades of effort by conservatives to get to this moment.
Of course they're giddy. They are vampires and they turned on the blood sprinklers.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
