Here to connect w/people who want the U.S. to be a multiracial pluralistic democracy, not a white nationalist theocratic autocracy. 💙

Every day it's exponentially clearer that we are living under a fascist government.

Authoritarianism is here. We are no longer living in a true democracy. Our job now is to work together to peacefully end this reign of terror.

This ends when enough of us say no.

This whole NYT account about the weaponization of DOJ is beyond disturbing. Kinda feels like the US government fell in January.

"Despite the high-profile nature of the raid, federal prosecutors have not filed criminal charges against any of the immigrants detained that night."
NEW: The Trump administration’s slickly produced videos of an immigration raid at a Chicago apartment building in September showed federal agents rappelling from a helicopter and banging down doors.

These are the stories of the people who were inside.

Here is the 9th Circuit explaining why the anti-migrant view—which the Trump administration supports—would constitute "a radical contraction of the right to apply for asylum." Now SCOTUS will decide whether to green-light this contraction. www.scotusblog.com/wp-content/u...

The Supreme Court takes up a major immigration case that asks whether the U.S. government can effectively prevent migrants from applying for asylum by blocking them at the border. I am very, very worried about this one. www.scotusblog.com/cases/case-f...

This man and Stephen Miller are the devil
OMFG-ex DOJ official (& now federal judge) Emil Bove was involved in the administration's plots to murder individuals via lethal strikes

"At a DOJ conference ... Bove told drug prosecutors the ... administration wasn't interested in interdicting ... Instead... the U.S. should "just sink the boats."

If he has nothing to hide he doesn’t need a House vote. He can just release everything.

✅ Every word.
The Department of War rebrand is costing $2 BILLION

Kristi Noem’s Dept of Homeland Security has spent $220 MILLION on television ads

Trump spent $1.7 MILLION to redecorate the Oval Office

I’d rather our tax $ go to spending on healthcare & food for those in need.

Nearly 6 months ago while Musk & Trump were in the midst of a Twittersphere bitch fight, Musk told the world Trump was in the Epstein files

The Epstein emails are the tip of the iceberg or Trump would release all the files today to exonerate himself

Trump + Epstein were in cahoots!

The survivors and their lawyers have been clear—follow the money.

That is why the next set of subpoenas coming out of the @oversightdemocrats.house.gov must be the financial records involving Jeffrey Epstein. 

We are leaving no stone unturned in this case.

For thirty years I worked in the post-Soviet successor states in Central Asia and observed over and over again precisely the cycle that Bill Kristol describes. Corruption leads to authoritarianism, directly. The path is utterly predictable.

The message from Trump is crystal clear - if you beat the hell of out police, if you threaten to kill FBI officers - I will make sure you get away with it if you are breaking the law to keep me in power.

If you don't see it, this is a message about 2028.

In this video I break down the strange behavior of Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson and the GOP Congress and explain how it all may have all been to protect Trump from the Epstein Files. youtu.be/iVJ21BDzJJs?...

Chris Murphy: "The fact of the matter is if you don't put constraints on Donald Trump's illegality, this democracy isn't going to be here next November. It isn't going to be here in 2028. So Democrats, yes, have to draw firm moral lines in the sand right now."

The use of terror is not a byproduct of Trumpian politics: it is central to how he governs.
(Politico) - An Indiana Senate Republican who President Donald Trump called out in a Truth Social post Sunday for not backing the White House’s plan to draw new congressional maps was later targeted by a swatting, according to local authorities.
