Homan went on CNN to complain that ICE’s attempts to arrest Chicagoans has been hampered by the people’s knowledge of policy—largely because of the city’s “Know Your Rights” campaign. Fascists rely on your compliance. On your ignorance. They depend upon your fear.

New White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her first press briefing today and told a number of demonstrable lies (about condoms for Gaza, the criminal records of undocumented migrants, and more).

fascism is stopped when enough people say one of two things:
1) "nah, I'm not doing that"
2) "nah, you're not doing that"
a lot of people want to imagine how they'll say the second thing, but you should *really* start practicing the first one

Harlan Crow and a few billionaires have provided Clarence Thomas with:
-38 destination vacations
-26 private jet flights
-6 helicopter flights
-Yacht voyages
And we're going to let Thomas rule on Moore v. US, which could permanently shield billionaires from a wealth tax?
