THIS. It's one of fascism's own myths about itself: that it is coherent, efficient, etc. No. History shows us that fascist regimes are contradictory, chaotic, etc. Fascism is not a coherent ideology but a ragbag of scraps held together with aesthetics. Fascist governments are gangs of cranks.
there is strange insistence — an implicit one — that fascism must be a coherent system

The fact that ICE officers prevented a doctor from rendering aid after fatally shooting an innocent woman is sick beyond measure.
As we press for accountability, it is important that all of us spread the facts of this brutal and unjustified killing far and wide.

In the multistate SNAP case, Judge Talwani will:
- keep USDA's 11/8 order that states "undo" full payments or face penalties stayed for now
- issue a TRO mirroring the RI case TRO to protect states directly
