Well that’s a disturbingly accurate way of summarizing it
If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.
Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

The photos in this Chicago Tribune piece… It's a quiet middle-class inner suburb, but these guys look like they're in Fallujah circa 2006.
The uniforms indicate Border Patrol and its BORTAC "special operations" unit.

starving over 40 million people right before major holidays + massively upping healthcare costs does strike me as a rather bold move this early in the authoritarian consolidation game for any given fascist regime, but I guess we’ll see what happens

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Parents of U.S. Marine, Steve Rios, were recently detained by ICE. They were preparing to take Rios and his pregnant sister to breakfast.
His father was deported and the whereabouts of the mother is now unknown. Neither had criminal records.
The criminal is in the Oval Office.

#ICE & everyone playing backup roles to these domestic terrorists aren’t treating anyone with respect. They believe we all are lying about our “papers” which previously we were told to keep safe & now are expected to carry with us. Makes me ashamed to be a citizen

This is terrifying!
ICE breaks into this woman’s car in the pick-up line at West Loop Elementary school in Chicago and detains her before she can pick her kids up from school. (They were eventually let go after showing their documents)
This is Trump’s America.

🧵 great thread on what we are not only witnessing in real time but also experiencing it. Hopefully the documentation will help prevent other nations from venturing down this path.
Empires decline all the time, for all kinds of reasons, but our present moment will be remembered in history books for the sheer volume of *voluntary & pointless self-imposed damage*. We're systematically dismantling what made us great, for no reason! Genuinely, with no rationale! It's wild.
