They are LITERALLY following the Nazi playbook: "The Enabling Act of 1933 (German: Ermächtigungsgesetz) allow the Chancellor to override the checks/balances in the constitution & was a pivotal step in the transition from a democratic Weimar Republic to the totalitarian dictatorship of Nazi Germany"

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.
You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.
Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

The chances of us even having another election, or an election where they honor the true results, appear to be dwindling by the day.

few things to note about this story:

- the Strib put a lot of bylines on this, which is good, but I would especially note that this story was fact checked by a Minnesota woman named MaryJo and my experience with such women suggests that they do not suffer bullshit

It's terrifying. Hegseth wants to turn the military on US citizens exercising their first amendment rights.
this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)
