to all of the Democratic senators who voted yes, on Bondi, how are you sleeping at night knowing that our government is kidnapping, torturing, and imprisoning innocent people?

I don't think liberals/leftists should flee the country, because the US is still the world hegemon. There's no running away from a power like this, it has to be stopped from the inside.

If you're a politician and legitimately afraid of death threats or retaliation for standing up against the current administration, you are not qualified for your position, and quitting to make way for someone who isn't a coward is the only net positive you will ever contribute to this country.

They won't be. Left untouched, the Dems will just do the same thing they've done for the past several elections. This is something we have to demand collectively.
The next Dem nominee has to be serious about SCOTUS reform, none of this “forming a committee to study it” nonsense

The Supreme Court has ruled, temporarily at least, and perhaps permanently, that the United States government can deport anyone, including a US citizen, to a foreign country and then maroon them there on the grounds that they no longer have control of them. Fascism is here.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Most people in the United States who have never faced housing insecurity have no idea how easy it is to evict someone in this country.
Before the pandemic, every US state evicted more people annually than all of mainland Europe COMBINED.
Many states don't even allow counterclaims in evictions.

In most societies, the rich and powerful acceded to the rule of law solely because they realized that, as soon as ordinary people feel they’re getting screwed without any chance of peaceful redress, that’s when you get the pitchfork-wielding mobs.

A lot of people seem to be under the belief that the post-war factory jobs their parents and grandparents had were good jobs because they were masculine and tough instead of, say, protected by a union under a progressive tax rate and a massive surplus

I think people reeeeealllly overestimate the role of trade and industrial policy in US dominance of heavy industry in the 1950s and really underestimate the importance of having dropped high explosives on every facility in Japan or Germany capable of manufacturing a ball bearing

Reminder that
(a) the current share of U.S. workers in the public sector (working for government agencies) is at historic lows
(b) It was not until the 'post'-Civil Rights era, when Black workers gained footing in public sector jobs, policymakers began to frame public sector workers as "waste"

I am laughing at the idea of institutional trust right now. Like the idea that any American should trust authority. Completely out of the window. Every single bastion of public trust has failed. The future is in the hands of the first person who can meaningfully eject this guy at nearly any cost.
