The Nazis used the Reichstag Fire Decree, which suspended civil liberties and allowed the arrest of individuals without charges.

The Magas used the Alien Enemies Act to deport and imprison individuals without charges and hearings

The Nazis labeled Jews as a mafia, alleging they operated collectively to undermine and subjecate Germans.

The Magas label hardworking, legal immigrants as gangs that undermine and threaten Americans.

Patty Morin's murderer got due process and is in the United States while an innocent man is in prison in El Salvador without due process. Make sense of that.

Dedicated public servants who have been following the law and protecting our government's most sensitive IT systems were placed on leave for standing up to Musk.
 
This retaliation is disgusting and deeply troubling.

I'm buying a tesla when it hits $15k and getting a bumper sticker that says,

"Bought for Peanuts. THANKS WOKE!"

Since when was TDS a bad thing. I almost feel it's a benefit. Look what happened to those who didn't have HDS.

So DOGE is simply a rehaul of the government's tech systems and not really about operational inefficiencies. Who's profiting?

In his Inaugural Address, President Trump made inaccurate claims about the state of the economy, immigration, world affairs and federal and local investigations into his own conduct. Here’s a fact-check.
Trump Repeats Inaccurate Claims in Inaugural Remarks
In his Inaugural Address, President Trump delivered a more tempered version of election talking points. But in remarks afterward, he reprised his grievances about the 2020 election.

Is Trump planning war in his attempt to take control of strategic geographic locations like Panama, Canada and Greenland?
Trump calls in and Junior puts him on speaker. He says we need to take over Greenland because there are “ships sailing around and they’re not the right ships.”

Mark Zuck has kissed the ring. Not only is he replacing fact checkers with community notes, but he's also going after foreign governments that are a threat to US interests (ie, Trump), and he's moving workers to Texas. Sound familiar?

Ashli Babbitt was shot for endangering the lives of members of Congress. It wasn’t a peaceful bunch of grandmas. It was a violent insurrection.

Liberals need to stop supporting Democrats to show them that our support needs to be earned. The H1B rebellion by maga against Elon showed that principle, even though misguided, was more important than blind servitude. Where is our stand for principle?

2016-2020 was Trump’s learning phase—he faced resistance from Americans and US allies alike who saw the danger he posed. In 2025-2028, he’ll aim to dismantle alliances and empower mini-Trumps. Global democracy is now at stake.

MAGA works on shock and awe. That is, they anchor their position at an extreme to get what they want. Regardless of whether it's through immoral actions or threats. Until Democrats learn how to bring a gun to a gunfight, they will continue getting shot.
