In today’s Letter, @hcrichardson.bsky.social makes it clear that ignorance is no longer an option. After Renee and Alex you’re either for a law based constitutional republic, or you’re not. The time to choose has passed.

What they are actually doing to those they say are illegal
Destroying Medicare
All the other shit they are doing
Bondi's letter—essentially offering to stop attacking and murdering citizens in Minnesota in exchange for the state's voter rolls—shows what Trump, Miller et al. are really after:

They want to fuck with the nation's elections so that they never have to cede power or answer for their crimes.

Direct the vitriol at congressional Republicans in power refusing to stop this. bsky.app/profile/gell...
Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

Frances Fukuyama: "I would liken Donald Trump to a ten-year-old boy who has discovered a flame thrower in his parents’ backyard, and has come to realize that he can burn up anything he wants with it. He’s now actively looking for other things he can set on fire."

The Trump regime's position seems to be that Republicans have the right to bear arms and everyone else has the right to get shot by them.

But they can stop or hinder the APPROPRIATION of all those billions planned for ICE.
FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

I apologize if it seems I mostly repost from HCR's feed...

Because she is one of my main sources of news about the Trump dysfunctionality.

I subscribe to The Guardian (US edition) and The New Republic and I'm about to subscribe to Mother Jones.

Did have to NYT but canceled last year re Mamdani.

That’s more money than the vast majority of Americans will ever see — much less donate.

I agree - and the house
.@briantylercohen.bsky.social How do you feel about Democrats’ chances to win the Senate in 2026?

Sen. @adamschiff.com: A year ago we would’ve both agreed it would be tough for Democrats to flip the Senate. But now I think we have a very clear, very viable path.

Unfortunately, the people who need to know about this don't watch the news
The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.
