This is actually the really simple story of the collapse of American democracy. You can explain America’s constitutional collapse in a single coherent sentence:
The Founders assumed that Members of Congress would jealously and zealously guard the powers and prerogatives of their branch of government against the grasping of an overweening Executive, and instead we got this supine GOP majority that yearns to lick the boot.
I would like to think the Mad King proclaiming “I will continue to illegally raise taxes on the American people until the NATO alliance collapses” would be the type of statement to cause Congress to act, but I’m not sure there’s any red line the GOP Congress has anymore.

Re: Greenland, sacrificing soft power you can use to control the whole world for some land you already have access to is the work of meme-addled morons. That they think it will politically benefit them for the midterms is an extra layer of stupid

An interesting case of "high on their own supply"— Trumpists apparently *believe* that weaponizing the DOJ easily gets you indictments and convictions, because they're committed to not believing that the investigations under Biden and Garland were valid and backed by lots of evidence.

Gov. Walz to MS NOW:
"Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system … is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic.
"The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her."

This is the second time in less than two weeks that Tucker Carlson - an extremist who promotes antisemitism, white nationalism, and idiotic anti-government conspiracy theories - has been welcomed in Trump’s White House.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

"Once again, the federal government is telling us that what we saw with our own damn eyes is wrong. But this isn’t the usual lie—that all immigrants are criminals, or that melanin leads to blue city violence. This is a new one."
Why Renee Good Was, and Is, So Dangerous to Trump
There are many ways to define an enemy. One is someone who isn’t afraid of you.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Jamelle and I disagree on some things. (We've met. He's a very nice guy.) But this is Real Talk that irrational doomers need to hear and I'm sitting here applauding his willingness to take the wave of kookery that's gonna come his way for saying all this.
okay the actual last thing i have to say here is that a lot of you are responding with "you think guardrails and institutions will hold!" and that is a sign you aren't actually engaging with the words you're reading. (cont.)

When we say "explicitly neo-Nazi" we mean channels that fly swastikas and praise Hitler. That's the zone of internet where DHS is apparently finding inspiration for their X posts. It's ultra unlikely they would have ever encountered that song if they weren't in that space, imo.
Our researchers found at least 450 posts on Telegram dating back to 2020 that shared the song mentioned in this reporting.
Nearly all the posts we found were from explicitly neo-Nazi and white supremacist channels. And a review of our datasets found it hasn't circulated much outside those circles.
