The Deportation Nightmare Begins Whatever Trump intends, this will spiral out of control

The attack on immigrants โ€” which I don't think Trump can moderate โ€” will make America poorer as well as uglier paulkrugman.substack.com/p/the-deport...

Between the earthquake/tsuanmi scare, the UnitedHealthcare shooting and the South Korea martial law stuff this week, it feels like Bluesky is getting more and more critical mass around breaking events that made Twitter so sticky and useful.

Not a good sign that NBC news cut into a football highlight show last night with "BREAKING NEWS" about a presidential pardon, while Trump's attempts to end our country as we know it go mostly unmentioned.

another hot take on "listen lefties, you need to get out of your filter bubble and debate right wingers on social media to prevail in the marketplace of ideas"

in US & UK & elsewhere, the right wings are operating as cults. you can't debate them, they're not fact-based, they don't live in reality

This is the rallying call that I've needed to hear since November 6th. From Roxane Gay in today's New York Times www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/o...

There is something deeply amusing about musklings coming here and realizing thereโ€™s no algorithm to boost their rage bait, which was their main advantage.

Final thoughts today. My conclusion is that many in the US have no idea what's coming for it. Can't/won't believe. 'The institutions will hold'. 'There's always the courts.' Let's hope so. But the plan is shock & awe. Think high-profile scapegoats, a climate of fear, institutional cowardice.
