I wrote about the birthday boy and his tank parade, and the great weakness inherent in fascist shows of power.

And about how the people of the country *are* the country.

As a bonus tie-in, my answer to the standard terf question "what is a woman."

Those are not protesters. They are our mothers, our fathers, our brothers, our sisters, our grandmother's, and our grandfathers. They are you and me.
They are the people who taught us right from wrong since we were children, standing up against the nazis who refused to learn their lessons..

/5 They will use federal law enforcement and cooperative local law enforcement and the military to commit violence and to provoke more violence and to use all of that violence as justification for more violence, more emergency power, more authoritarianism.

Let’s be very clear: Los Angeles is the perfect place for this to play out for the Trumpists. The Trumpists hate California and hate Los Angeles and a vast amount of their base feels the same — even the Trumpists here, who wallow in hating the place they live.

The administration gets closer to using the military to crush civilian dissent. Expect deaths, disappearances, and lawless detentions.
Tom Homan: We are making Los Angeles safer. Mayor Bass should be thanking us. She says they are going to mobilize—guess what? We are already mobilizing. We are going to bring the National Guard in tonight

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 43 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense.

Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

Even if Bondi is right (she’s not), it doesn’t change the facts:

• he was deported to El Salvador erroneously and in violation of a judge’s order

• SCOTUS has ordered that the administration facilitate his return

• they’re ignoring that order

• one phone call to Bukele and he’s on the next plane
Bondi is escalating the rhetoric against Abrego Garcia, who she calls "one of the top MS-13 members" and "a terrorist"

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

Here is a sitting Democratic Congressmember pointing out that the US bombing Yemen is a war crime. This is possible! It is a thing you can do, if you're an elected official.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
