Newsom shapes everything around the brute fact that Trump is serially breaking the law and using government sponsored violence and intimidation to entrench authoritarian power. He accepts this as the core fact of our moment.

When The U.S. Government Tried To Replace Migrant Farmworkers With High Schoolers
In 1964, a program that brought migrant Mexican laborers to the U.S. ended. So the U.S. recruited American students to pick crops instead. When they saw their living conditions, strikes ensued.

Holy shit. 👀
he just argued that “5 million of whose who lose Medicaid have two types of insurance so if they lose one they’ll still have the other.”
I haven’t looked into the 5M figure but I’m guessing a big chunk are Medicare/Medicaid dual eligibles.
Medicaid pays for NURSING HOME CARE.

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

Hospitals and nursing homes will close, people will go without care, insurance premiums will increase across the board.
This will not stop at Medicaid, cuts to Medicare will happen as well.

The purpose of a democratic political system is to channel the will of majorities and limit the rise of tyranny.
But, our system channels the rise of tyranny and limits the expression of majorities.
Authoritarianism is here because our system failed. The system is the foundation of the problem.

The dividing line this incident offers is as stark as possible, either you oppose fascism or you don’t
"Over the weekend, agents of the government entered a legal resident’s home without a warrant and arrested him, and then flew him a thousand miles away without notifying his family or lawyers about his whereabouts for a day. If you read about it in any other country, you would know what to call it."
