We’ve watched as my GOP colleagues have looked the other way while the President and his Admin have ignored the Constitution & rule of law & wreaked havoc on our country.
If lawmakers won’t stand up for the American people, then the American people must stand up at the ballot box in November.

So when authorities say “she tried to run over an officer,” that is not a neutral description. It is a claim of intent that can be used to justify lethal force after the fact.
When the state kills first and invents the threat afterward, it is not policing, it is death squad behavior. /end

American conservatives will look you right in the eye with a straight face and tell you that complete and utter subservience to masked federal police is patriotism, anything else deserves being executed in the street, and tax dollars for healthcare is tyranny.

The only thing this fascist regime does more easily than hurting innocent people is lying about it afterwards. We need to stand up to the #AmericanGestapo until they are shut down.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, mother of a 6 year old, was murdered by a federal agent today. Murdered and then blamed for her murder.
DHS agents are now a proven extrajudicial force that will kill you, for no reason at all, just because they can.

Some people are responding to criticisms of this as if people were saying “impeachment is obviously the right strategy.” No. The point is that “impeachment isn’t the right strategy because the GOP may start to be responsible” is an unfathomably stupid and insulting lie.
Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

Once again, Schumer demonstrates that he is the wrong person for his job. We passed "that far" long, long ago.

Trump pressed oil executives to give $1 billion for his campaign, people in industry say
"This is a scandal" and "an indictment of the system" — but probably legal, one legal watchdog told POLITICO.

This is authoritarian rot in plain sight. A DOJ weaponized against “enemies” of a sitting president isn’t law enforcement — it’s vengeance. That’s how democracies die: not overnight, but when power decides dissent is a crime.

If this is real, it's... consistent with what has been clear for some time now
DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:
"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."
