I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

if we want to rebuild american institutions and earn back the world’s trust after this we cannot settle for half-measures. lots of people need to go prison. lots more need to be permanently stripped of wealth and power.

Unbelievable.

DOJ fired a lawyer for acknowledging that an illegal deportation may in fact have been illegal.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

The majority wrote that, even though they have the authority to completely throw out the contested ballots, they decided to instead mandate a cure period for most of the challenged voters.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill.

The Social Security Administration under Trump/Musk/DOGE:

-Website crashed 4 times in 10 days
-Phone lines are overwhelmed
-Staff being forced out
-Customer experience office eliminated
-SSA field offices on the chopping block

This is an attack on Social Security itself.

1. The Social Security Administration and DOGE are GASLIGHTING AMERICANS.

They are telling millions of beneficiaries that reports they were closing SSA field offices were fake news.

Actually, these closures were PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED and LEASES WERE CANCELED.

🧵
How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans
The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.
