🧵"So this is how liberty dies..."
Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up.
I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

Stop calling it a “school choice” bill. It is a privatization bill. They don’t want your kids in their schools. Never have, never will. #TxLege

ICE agents are harassing and threatening Native Americans.
If this has happened to you, call my office at (202) 225-6190.
Trump said you can tell bad immigrants by what they “look” like. Tribal members look like the first Americans. Stop harassing them.

American Muslims voted 65-35 Biden Trump and 64-32 Harris Trump. This is per exit polling by AP and Fox in a joint project.
Majority of White Americans voted for Trump 3 elections in a row.
We need less propaganda and demonization of the American Muslim community and more unity against fascism.

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.
This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Thoughts for the long game on U.S. Education policy. It starts with setting high, common outcome goals, including learning real science and math, and standards uniformly applied across any/all schools receiving public financing. Then, we must fund schools to achieve those outcomes.
