This is what @timothysnyder.bsky.social has been trying to tell us all along.
Authoritarians don’t swagger in with power.
We GIVE it to them.
This means WE can take it away as well.

Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

Thinking of that time when my dad, himself a doctor, was thrown by a horse on a trail ride. Punctured his spleen, internal bleeding, got him to an ER just in time. He lived another 20 years. With two hours delay, probably wouldn't have.
We rushed to *nearest* ER. Not comparison-shop for ER prices.

Republicans remain committed to trying every possible solution for healthcare insurance except the one that works in every other western economy.
PS: America ran the experiment on private health insurance. It failed.

You're in a car accident. So you call all the ERs from the ambulance and see who's offering a special. Hell, maybe you can ask hospital B to beat hospital A's price. It'll be like car dealerships. "How much can you spend a month, Randi?" "What will it take to get you into this ER today?"

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Another reason why it’s important not to obey illegal orders is because the people willing to give illegal orders will happily throw you under the bus for following them.
