I cannot stress enough how much of a Def Con 1 moment this is. Federal judges fear that the President of the United States will stand down security for judges in retaliation for adverse decisions.

This is such a huge story.
This should be seen as evidence of the crisis: federal judges fear that Trump will order U.S. Marshals to stand down on securing the safety of judges whose decision they don’t like. This is just devastating.

Republicans are more eager than ever to embrace the Big Lie and have become even bolder in their willingness to engage in mass disenfranchisement to secure and hold power. If federal courts endorse the GOP’s scheme here, it will open the floodgates to similar efforts in the future.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him.

He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons.

He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.

He’s defying the Supreme Court.

Don’t you see what’s happening here?

This is one of several key developments I am watching this week. The others are the GOP effort to steal an election in North Carolina and the rolling capitulation of large law firms to Trump.

NEW: With today's filings, it appears the Trump administration has decided on a showdown with the federal court. At this point, a finding of contempt seems likely. Then we are in uncharted territory.

If the US had continued to support Ukraine, we may have been months away from the end of the war. The Russians would not have been able to continue to fight for much longer. They were making almost no progress, taking huge casualties.

Also Americans learned that Trump/Vance want all the professionals they're shitcanning to go work in factories and on farms. They say they want a Mao-volution?

Deporting American citizens—even those with criminal records—to foreign prisons is unconstitutional and violates core due process protections. The White House has stated it will decide who qualifies for deportation. Will protesting eventually be deemed a crime—and a deportable offense?

If you watched the Oval Office, Trump targeted two individuals whose only offense was saying the truth. Then he targeted a law firm because it sued FoxNews. It ended with him totaling the money Big Law firms that have capitulated owe him in pro bono.

We cannot give up. We must all commit to fight.

This is so blatantly un-Constitutional that it’s insane. It violates the amendment barring cruel and unusual punishment, cuts off access to due process and legal representation, and is effectively selling human beings into either slavery or death camps.

Citizens cannot, by legal definition, be "deported." What she's describing is kidnapping and forced imprisonment without cause. She and many, many others in this administration should face prison one day. bsky.app/profile/ones...
