Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.
Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Reminder to any and all Canadian politicians who haven't yet understood this about Trump. Indeed, as long as we keep trying to figure out how to cater to his whims so we don't get harmed too bad... we'll be getting harmed bad.

Funding cuts to Medicaid and other programs included in the sweeping tax-and-spending bill would hurt low-income households financially more than the tax cuts would boost their finances, according to nonpartisan analyses of the bill.

Cuts to Medicaid and anti-poverty programs wipe out gains low-income households could see from policies like no taxes on tips and overtime, nonpartisan estimates show.

Policing in North America was born to enforce the concentration of power in colonizer hands. Without prioritizing the voices and the realities of the peoples Police corps and Prisons here were designed to suppress, the immoral treatment of minorities will readily persist, mandated by the powerful.
entire system of migrant detention in US was built around detention of Haitians in 1990s.
entire logic of US border control dating to 1800s is built on anti-Black control of free mobility.
cops, borders, prisons all rely on racial apartheid. no cages & no cops means no walls.

They promised to root out waste and abuse and found none, and in the process wasted money and abused innocent people.
They promised to deport 20 million people but are not getting anywhere near that, so they are desperately arresting anyone they can get their hands on whilst wearing face masks.
