The Pain Is the Plan
MAGA is actively seeking to immiserate the country in order to cement their power over the rest of us.
"One of the best takeaways those of us on the left or the center can hold is that tariffs, the annihilation of the safety net, aggressive tax cuts, and all of their other fiscal policies are not about enrichment as an end unto itself: theyβre about impoverishment as a means to reinforce hierarchy."

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity.

Journalists often go on hand-fed ride-alongs with agents.
Seldom, though, do they get into the cars of everyday people protecting their communities from those same agents.
We just did exactly that, in ICE-occupied Minneapolis:

Take a second to really think about this: After one of its agents murdered an American citizen, the Trump-Vance administration is now straight up ignoring the judicial branch's order to let the legislative branch conduct basic oversight over said agents.
