SCOOP: The top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its efforts to aid states in securing elections. The move represents the first major example of the countryโ€™s cyber defense agency accommodating Trumpโ€™s false claims of election fraud and online censorship.

Trump and his lawyers embrace the logic of dictatorship And they're not even trying to hide it at this point.

New in PN: Trump and his lawyers embrace the logic of dictatorship

"The arguments being made by the administration boil down to this: if Trump wants to do it, he gets to. Their stance appears to literally be that laws are irrelevant in the face of Trumpโ€™s wishes and the courts canโ€™t stop him."

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

Ken Martin gave a hell of a good speech here: โ€œAre we on the side of the robber baron, the ultra-wealthy billionaire, the oil and gas polluter, the union buster. Or are we on the side of the American working family, the small business owner, the farmer, the immigrant, and the students?"

Last existential post of the day I promise but this is a good thread.

I think it's good to remind ourselves that as big as the federal government is, it's still not actually that big.

Idgaf Iโ€™m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just โ€œweโ€™re not the bad guys.โ€

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿฝ

Immigration Chaos in Trumpโ€™s First Week - Documented Trump has kicked off a series of raids and deportations that belie his goal of prioritizing arrests of immigrants with criminal backgrounds.

Trump has pulled everyone off of their duties at FBI, DEA, DHS, ATF And the US Marshalls to chase down immigrants. That is about 5000 personnel taken off their other duties to, in most cases, sit around for 12 hours to placate the orange one.
