I love how delighted Robert Reich is by A Bug’s Life.
The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today’s robber barons use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

trump is the manifestation of both constitutional mechanisms and anti-constitutional politics. he couldn’t survive without both.
How did the constitutional order deliver us Trump? His historical legacy is literally people who despised the US liberal democratic order and tried to break it: the Confederates, fascists, Nazis. His power extends from his supporters' willingness to flout the rules. This just makes very little sense
It’s very important that we hold two ideas at once: Trump has taken us outside the constitutional order, AND that the constitutional order delivered Trump.
The American political system is incredibly outdated, unrepresentative and undemocratic—it needs to be changed.

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Atlantic: What would happen if you accidentally got the wrong person (re: deportations) - a legal resident, or even an American citizen?
Trump: Let me tell you that nothing will ever be perfect in this world.
This should chill you to your core.
We will not be acceptable casualties to fascism.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

I do not read anything in the Trump White House's appeal to the Supreme Court that would, as a practical matter, prevent the government from legally disappearing *anyone* to a foreign torture prison by "mistake" ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...
If the Trump Administration Can Disappear Kilmar Abrego Garcia, It Can Disappear Anyone
The White House is asking the Supreme Court’s conservative supermajority for a Fifth Amendment pass.
