This is the message. Make it clear that these billionaires aren't just worried about losing money. They're worried about losing the ability to exchange their money for power.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Donald Trump’s father destroyed Steeplechase Park, the iconic amusement palace of Coney Island. Before demolition, he hosted a party for his rich fuck friends where bikini clad waitresses gave them bricks to throw through Steeplechase’s famous stained glass windows
Donald Trump knocked down the White House East Wing without notice and before approvals —a developer move known as ‘anticipatory demolition,’ where you tear down a building before the preservationists can intervene. His dad did it too.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.
