That means we’re not powerless to stop it. But we have to start laying the groundwork to change who’s in power right now.

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

I conducted unannounced oversight of the Northwest Detention Center. What I witnessed was devastating. Trump is detaining our neighbors, coworkers, & loved ones without guaranteed due process & no accountability. That's not American; that's authoritarianism. I will fight back with everything I have.
