The bought-and-paid-for Supreme Court agreed to take up whether to overturn a 90-year-old precedent that allows Congress to give certain agencies some independence from the White House. And of course, we can be certain they’ll rule in his favor, leaving us with no truly independent agencies.

The Supreme Court knocked down one of the final barriers to Trump’s consolidation of power. The conservative supermajority effectively greenlit Trump’s illegal firing of a FT Commisioner and teed up the reversal of a precedent that prevents him from exercising dictatorial control over government.

ICE fired some sort of chemical munition at protesters and media outside the Broadview Detention Facility near Chicago this morning. I've seen a few videos, and they got pretty physical with them too. This is fucked up.

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.

Once again, this is a massive public jobs program for fascists.

This bill was never just about tax cuts and gutting social services. It's about investing our collective resources in violence and using state power to spread fear and destroy solidarity. We need to resist this with all we've got.

The fiscal conservatives in the GOP just added $4 trillion to the deficit to give the wealthiest people on earth a tax cut. The pro-family party just took healthcare away from 17 million Americans to give ICE a bigger budget than Brazil’s military. The single most inhumane bill ever passed.

I truly hope this puts a definitive end to the perpetual insistence by Democrats that they can compromise with Republicans. You can't. These people are extreme, depraved, and shameless. They just stripped healthcare from 17 million people to give themselves a tax cut.

Trump’s Tax Scam would give ICE a bigger budget than many militaries around the world.
