He wants to dictate what the press can say.
What a university can teach.
Whom a company can employ.
And to whom the law shall apply.

He who wants all this is not a president,
But strives to be a dictator.
And all who succumb are not citizens,
But subjects.

Getting pretty sick of hearing "I'm definitely not a fascist... But I hate people who oppose fascists which I'm definitely not, so I must stop the people who definitely don't hate me"

I never imagined that the most dangerous moment in America's democracy would also be its stupidest.

On MLK Day, after promising to fulfill Dr. King's dream, Trump pardoned white supremacists.

On Inauguration day, after promising to uphold the Constitution, Trump issued an EO to end birthright citizenship, which the 14th Amendment guarantees.

That's what Trump's word is worth: Absolutely Nothing.

I love this so much!

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.

Underreported: Elon just picked the head of NASA—a massive conflict-of-interest that will damage a government entity that he partners with, depends on, and in some cases competes with. The nominated NASA director is a high-school dropout billionaire who is pals with Musk. He has no business at NASA.

The Trump ordeal has made one thing clear.

Too many of our checks and balances rely on norms, traditions and the honor code.

It works when those elected into power are people of honor and integrity who respect our norms and traditions.

Elect a lifelong criminal and it all goes sideways.
