Trump and his fellow fascists are flooding us with abusive propaganda intended to crush our will.

This is a preview of a possible future and one that will come to pass unless we wrestle with the reality of our crisis and fight for a different future.

It's impossible to see all of this and not conclude that it doesn't matter what happens or who it happens to, there is a contingent of people who are looking for any reason to set off a mass campaign of violence against political enemies. I've seen it for years, but it is simply escalating.

What we’re seeing is not a conflict of interest, but a congruence of interests. Trump has merged the US government with his business. It’s a cavalcade of corruption. It’s out in the open. It’s brazen and blatant.
