We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.
But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan.
Here's a π§΅of the speech. It's important.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated'
The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.
My god.
βWatson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothersβ¦βIt was heartbreaking to watchβ¦seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.ββ

Trump offers Qatar, which gave him a fancy plane, a NATO-like security guarantee
Without bothering to go through Congress, the president signed an executive order this week vowing to defend Qatar in the event of a foreign attack.
This didnβt generate a ton of front-page headlines, but Trump this week signed an executive order rewarding Qatar with a NATO-like security guarantee β without bothering to go through Congress.
Is this the same country that gave him a fancy plane? Yes. Yes it is. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
