I see how this works now: "I love Hitler" is always a joke, but wearing an inflatable frog costume is invariably a prelude to chaos and violence. Got it.

A president who is crashing the economy, destroying public health and terrorizing immigrants keeps slipping in the polls. He could:
A) stop his bad behavior to stem the slide
or
B) try to crush free speech to cover up his failures.
Right now, he’s choosing B.

Trump's DOJ deleted a study about the rise of far right violence in America.
Meanwhile, Trump baselessly smears so-called "far left" critics and threatens to unleash the government on them.
Make no mistake: Trump's sole focus is suppressing dissent & consolidating more power.

At a profound level, MAGA's immigration policies are simply a way to transfer taxpayer dollars to private contractors whose job is to terrorize the American people. Fundamentally, leaders are using our own money to destroy our democracy.

Trump: Violent crime in Washington, D.C., is “totally out of control.”
Fox News: “Crime is throwing the nation’s capital into chaos.”
Actual statistic: Violent crime in D.C. is at a 30-year low.
The takeaway: Republicans invent their own reality to scare gullible people and promote a police state.

This seems to be a good moment to remind folks that it was a singularly bad idea to elect a convicted felon - a man found liable for sexual abuse, who bragged about grabbing women, and consorted with the world’s most notorious pedophile — to the presidency.

Trump’s attack on the American mind — on education, science, libraries, and museums — is an attack on the capacity of Americans for self-government.
Democracy depends on people knowing what’s occurring around them and having the capacity to deliberate critically about it.
