Remember how Americans used to wonder how in the world Germans in the 1930s could let their country be taken over by a hateful, violent Nazi regime?
Now they’re showing just how easy it is to do.

Let’s get this straight.
Mike Johnson is FOR the extra-judicial daily arrest quotas of 3,000 immigrants by unidentified federal agents—
But AGAINST a federal mandate to wear masks in public during a global pandemic that killed 600,000 Americans.

Let’s ask her about Trump deporting people without due

All of this because Trump wants to set some record for deportations. Ironically if he had left DHS intact they would have deported many, many more people by now and Dem’s couldn’t have done anything about it because it would have been done legally.
Everyone should watch @repyassansari.bsky.social speaking truths about Abrego Garcia to Laura Ingraham last night. She told Fox viewers *five times* that Trump is defying SCOTUS and that his renditions are illegal/authoritarian, which they never hear.

The most notable fact about US politics at the moment is one that, for reasons of politesse, almost no one is allowed to say out loud, namely: the Republican Party has gathered to itself all the biggest losers and assholes in America. That's the real "sorting" -- all the worst people, clustered.

A note on JD Vance's repulsive response to the deportation of a Salvadoran in "error": The whole point of his stunt is to show that Trump feels free to remove people even when the law *doesn't* justify it.
