Fanone: There’s absolutely no legitimate justification for the way that many of these agents are behaving and the military-style show of force.
If we ever do right this ship, this organization has lost all credibility. I would hope we would completely abolish ICE.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

On Feb. 2, I published this Lucid essay, "A New Kind of Coup" about the Trump-Musk partnership. From my work on coups and #Strongmen I knew intuitively that this was an autocratic innovation.

Step up, stand up, speak out.
This moment is hard — I don't dispute that, but this isn't the time to be afraid.
Make your voice heard, whether it’s at a town hall or on the phone, so Donald Trump and Republicans know how sick and tired you are of them cutting your services.

BREAKING: Chief Justice Roberts issues a rare statement:
"For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose."

Trump is not just betraying the brave people of Ukraine and our European allies--although he is certainly doing that. He is also betraying the people of the United States and his oath of office. Defending Ukraine and repulsing Russian aggression is critical to US interests.
