Threatening to arrest an elected governor for political actions. Targeting parents at elementary school graduations. The national guard is deployed against the state's wishes. Pledging to "deploy" Marines onto US soil against our own citizens.
These are not the actions of a democracy. Dark times

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Will defer to lawyers, but deploying active duty Marines to suppress domestic dissent is almost certainly a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act and illegal. It's very possible this would represent an unlawful order that military leaders would not be bound to follow.

I'm having a hard time understanding how I'm just supposed to go about my daily life when people are disappearing off the street and my country has stepped off the cliff of fascism.

Exactly. This is the moment of no return
Basically: I don’t think people understand that 36 hours from now it’s possible that America will have a formalized system for abducting enemies of the regime and stashing them in foreign gulags, indefinitely.

Here's the message received loud and clear by American Jews:

If a powerful Jewish politician with his own security detail can be firebombed in his home during Passover, the rest of us plain old Jewish working people are presumptively unsafe, and our homes are targets.

I've been quiet for a while, but back. Happy Passover! Just trying to survive every day in this dystopia

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

There’s never an excuse to hold a baby hostage.

Glad we can at least agree on that.

Can't track crimes against us if we don't exist in any legal or documented way. That's. The point.

It's been a coup
We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.
