As we get more reports of ICE thugs detaining Americans, it should be noted that Timothy Snyder made it crystal clear from the onset of ICE raids that NO ONE would be safe.
People tell ICE: "I'm an American." They illegally detain us anyway.
Bc WE already let them erode due process for immigrants.

My son was in preschool when Republicans first promised to have a better plan than the ACA.
He’s a sophomore in college now.

The difference between the people Trump is turning on us from ICE vs the Nat Guard is that the Nat Guard signed a contract during very different times & are obligated to obey orders.
Those motherfuckers in ICE voluntarily chose THIS job, THIS year, precisely knowing it would demand violent cruelty.

Hospitals aren’t collapsing by accident. They’re being engineered to fail.
Private equity buys the building. Mega-systems strip the services. Washington pulls the funding. Consultants rubber-stamp the shutdowns.

Anne Frank & Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. were born in 1929. Viola Fletcher, who just died this week, was already 15 when they were born.
But while we were just with Ms. Fletcher days ago, Anne Frank & Dr King are portrayed as ancient history.
Remember, "The past is never dead. It's not even past.”

Musk turned on a feature on X that showed country of origin.
He disabled it a couple hours later when it was revealed how many MAGA accounts aren't in the U.S.
Foreign bot disinformation machines exposed.
Seems like Twitter could have done that feature 15 years ago & we wouldn't be here today.

Any other president would be facing an impeachment vote tonight.
By reacting to this in this manner, he’s admitting that he’s ordering our military to commit illegal and unconstitutional acts.
"Their crime? Recording a video that reminded members of the military that they are not supposed to obey illegal orders."
Can you imagine if this had been proclaimed by a democratic president?
One of these outbursts would have been a scandal of the century.
How can he just continue like this?
