It's clear that Trump is not just targeting criminals in his deportation efforts. This is so incredibly troubling. A loved one can leave the house...and whooossshhh...disappear, likely never to be seen again.

We aren't "sliding towards authoritarianism," we're watching an authoritarian in action.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.

No one knows why he was detained.
Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained
Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

Whether it comes from mayors or presidents, threats against press freedom are threats against freedom in general. We all have a duty to support journalism against the authoritarian impulse. ICYMI Bill Lueders: www.thebulwark.com/p/press-free...
Now Is the Time to Stand Up for Press Freedom
Bad-faith lawsuits, ugly smears, and even violence against journalists are becoming more common. To that, we must all say, ‘Enough.’

The 100 lowest-paying major US corporations spent $522B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2023.  

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned just $34k. 

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $14.7M.

See the problem?

Republicans have been out to gut Social Security for years because it’s one of the most popular and successful programs ever created.

Those who claim to care about the debt while pushing for trillions in tax cuts for the rich and corporations don't really care about the debt. Hello?
Unelected billionaire Elon Musk attacks social security, which keeps millions of seniors out of poverty, as “the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time”

The heartlessness is limitless
