Ethnic cleansing. πŸ™ƒ

There are only three political positions in America today

1) I like the fascism

2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)

3) I oppose the fascism

The rest is details

None of them is real.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

HASSAN: That's incorrect

It has always amazed me that this was a major priority for over 77 million US-Americans

A post from Elizabeth Warren (@SenWarren
) on X reads: "I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism. It’s disgusting and dangerous. If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign. Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness. To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you."

What RFK Jr. said was reprehensible. He should be ashamed of himself and step down.

I will say this - EVERYONE with power seems to be desperately hoping that unpopularity does the work that consequences need to do

Mindless zombies. They get their marching orders from the propaganda outlets, which are alas very good at feeding them the messaging in a variety of ways hammering the word of the week or month home again and again.

We in the Resistance need to get better at messaging this way.

Use this fire of outrage to create a new solidarity, a united front against the clear and present danger of this fascist regime. They have made themselves our collective enemy.

Focus together collectively, on defeating and ousting these soulless grifters.

Most of us who are NOT currently MAGA --and indeed that is the majority of Americans--ultimately ALL share one unifying quality: absolute rejection/abhorrence of this dangerous, violent and evil regime.

That also means folks who some refer to as "Blue MAGA".

Or folks who voted for Jill Stein.

Enough of the blame game.

Stop with the finger pointing and purity tests and needing to be righteously angry at all others who don't share your exact ideology.

Let go of the circular firing squad of the Left: it's a weapon of the Right to sow dissent amongst their opponents.

Stop falling for it. Don't reject people with whom you need to cultivate solidarity right now. Which means nonvoters. πŸͺ‘

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

If the government detains someone and doesn’t say where they are and holds them incommunicado, it’s legally enforced disappearance. My article: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Everything was visible for Americans to make a decision, we chose as a society that it would be better to have a fragile, deranged, racist over moving the country forward. That so many people made that choice speaks volumes about who we are and how far we have to go.

We need a focused, succinct platform of a few ideas as the intent of protests--can't just be "we're mad as hell and we're not gonna take it any more." Build momentum with specifics: #1 demand accountability from ALL branches & the military to honor/ uphold the Constitution-or else, General Strike!
