Now that Trump has openly declared on NBC that he "doesn't know" if all people in the US deserve due process, reupping this piece laying out how creating a vast, unreviewable, unaccountable rendition authority is his and Stephen Miller's true project:
Stephen Miller wants to create a vast, unreviewable WH rendition authority. His big story is that unchecked power is essential for public safety. But Trump's admissions reveal that all this is really just lawless, arbitrary and dictatorial. The stuff of Mad Kings.

“We analyzed Trump’s meme coin. At least 27 crypto wallets picked up $100 million worth of $TRUMP coins since his team said top holders would join him for an ‘intimate private dinner.’ Huge profit for Trump. ‘The most brazenly corrupt thing a President has ever done. Not close.’” @drewharwell.com

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. 

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. 

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

We’ve talked about Operation Whirlwind before, but the mission keeps expanding, now it’s targeting scientific journals. This week, Ed Martin, the U.S. attorney for D.C., sent an unprecedented letter to CHEST, a medical journal focused on respiratory science, questioning their editorial policies

Put aside the lies and the open defiance of the Supreme Court, as well as the cruelty, and ask yourself: who talks like this? This is the *official* account of the *White House* - is it being run by a six year old?

I’M GOING TO KEEP POSTING THIS STORY UNTIL ANDRY IS FREED: Gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to Salvadoran prison after a disgraced cop's report

Andry Hernandez Romero sought shelter in the U.S. because he was persecuted as a gay man, one of the "particular social groups" allowed to claim asylum.

It's now been over a month since Trump sent innocent man Andry Hernández to one of the world's worst prisons because of "Mom" and "Dad" tattoos. Like the others, he is being imprisoned with no contact with the outside world.

Don't let him be forgotten.

We MUST show up to every Republican's office and DEMAND they stop this.

DEMAND IT.

If fear of that orange motherfucker is their motivation, then we must make them more afraid of US, because we can ALSO make them lose their jobs.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

A MORAL CRISIS

“The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored.

If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.”

Take 3 minutes. This is important.

The constitutional crisis is here.

The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador.

Hey #Econsky

Can anyone explain the billionaire tax cuts? All the charts I've seen show $30-70,000 per year for wealthy. That's probably another watch to add to their collection.

We're raiding medicare and bankrupting our kids' future with national debt for that?
