Reminder: everything Hitler did was legal. Using law to undermine elections is classic authoritarian 101. Putin's Puppet, and his feckless sycophants in Congress, are making his master happy.
This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

BREAKING: Jack Smith is insisting upon a public hearing if Congress wants to talk to him
Good. Why does the GOP want backroom secret questioning? What are Republicans afraid of?
Let the American people see & hear for themselves!

"In a normal political moment, Dems would be right to focus on policies that make people’s lives better. But this isn’t an ordinary moment. For the love of God, it was days ago that Trump put every officer in the armed forces in a room & told them he plans to use soldiers against American citizens."

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
What's happened since?
A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.

Criminalizing pregnancy: A record number of women were prosecuted the year after Dobbs

Maybe ALL government meetings should have a journalist in them. There seems to be a whole lot of mendacity going on right now.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed that he took part in the group chat on the Signal app earlier this month among top U.S. officials ahead of American airstrikes in Yemen and said that someone had made a “big mistake” by adding a journalist to the group.

Picking your voters, and disenfranchising people who you think are not your voters is how authoritarians roll.
This executive order is bad — cartoonishly so. But it is also a wake-up call for those who believe the danger of election subversion has passed.
To the contrary, it has only just begun.
And so has our fight.

On 21 March 1933 Adolf Hitler was officially sworn in as chancellor of Germany. The same day he pardoned 8,000 Nazis, who had committed violent acts, starting with the failed Hitler coup on 8 November 1923.
