Great piece.

Point 7 is really important - Accountability must come.

We must demand this from every Democratic politician and candidate.
Accountability must come. As Brian Beutler wrote last month, “The attempt to speed-run authoritarianism has failed. The new acute danger is greater political violence (Trump calling for hangings, etc). But the concerted danger is down the line, when MAGA realizes the bill for all this corruption will come due.” The shortest possible answer is that Trump (or Vance or whoever oversees the final chapter of Trumpism) just issues blanket pardons to everyone from ICE officers to Cabinet secretaries. But we must not allow that to be the end of the story. America got to this point because we have systematically failed to hold elites to account, from systemic under-prosecution of white collar crimes to the 2008 financial crisis to Jeffrey Epstein to Trump after January 6th. There can be no “let’s just turn the page” kumbaya after Trump; as I said in a speech last week, the Biden administration’s original sin was believing that January 6th was the end of something, rather than the beginning. We must ensure that once it falls, Trumpism and authoritarianism cannot rise again in America.

The reason folks are focusing on DHS's refusal to honor Real IDs is that it means that the Trump regime is asserting the right to detain anyone in America, resident or visitor, without probable cause. It's an erasure of habeas corpus for all Americans.

Add to this that HSI just filed a declaration in our case challenging these policies saying they can’t trust REAL IDs as proof of status.

So showing your papers isn’t even enough to end the stop.

Erm...Anthropic is literally run by siblings who have all the hallmarks of aspiring cult leaders and believe in all this nonsense.

7/7
This isn’t about protecting kids. It’s about manufacturing permission. Permission to ban care. To erase people. To normalize state power over bodies. That’s the assembly line. And today, it’s running at full speed. #GOPHate #FakeChristians
