THIS IS HOW YOU FIGHT FASCISM!

In fairness, China's pronouncers of state propaganda have a much better game then America's.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

Authoritarianism

offered a powerful response showing how institutions should act when fascism takes over:“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.”– President Alan Garber

Fascism is when a leader uses the power of the state to control or coerce private institutions—like Trump has tried to do with universities and private companies such as Apple. His attempts to dictate what schools can teach or how businesses should operate are textbook authoritarianism. Harvard

This is truer than we think

This is how it’s done. At least someone understands the assignment.

Trump is threatening to revoke Harvard’s tax-exempt status—but there is no legal merit for it. His threats are empty.

Musk and his staffers are weaponizing federal data to remove immigrants from housing and jobs. This sets a dangerous precedent—one that won’t stop here. The information they’ve collected will soon be used against all of us.

A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in. The attempts were 'near real-time'...

"Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts..."

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that the Administration must work to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home. He was wrongfully deported. 
 
I joined @vanhollen.senate.gov in calling on the Administration to immediately comply with the court order and bring him back.

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

Brave, courageous, powerful statement from Abrego Garcia's wife, Jennifer. Watch, cry a little, share and let's keep fighting everyone.

Meanwhile, the administration has quietly slashed DOGE’s so-called “savings target” from $2 trillion to just $150 billion. Because it was never about savings. It was always about control.

Your data. Your life. Their weapon. We see it now for what it is.

DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance.

Over the weekend, we released new details—and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. What’s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isn’t a government efficiency program. It’s a data weapon aimed at the American people.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

As the 14th Amendment clearly states: “Nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” Our government needs to remember that.

We’re not sure what separates the Trump admin from the “terrorists” it claims to be fighting. You watch whats happening and can’t even process it—what the hell is going on is all we can think. Our Constitution grants everyone within this country the same legal protections, regardless of citizenship.

‘Treated like a criminal': US citizen says he was detained returning from Canada Bachir Atallah, a real estate attorney from New Hampshire, says he and his wife, Jessica Fakhri, were stopped crossing from Canada into Vermont

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action.

"It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us."

The judge also mandated that three DOGE officials, including acting administrator Amy Gleason, be made available for depositions within 24 days.

In one of the main Freedom of Information Act lawsuits involving Elon Musk and his team of analysts in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a federal judge accelerated the case timeline this evening—ordering DOGE to produce details about its structure and authority within two weeks.

Breaking, per NBC News @garygrumbach.bsky.social --

Judge Paula Xinis in the District of Maryland has ruled that the United States Government must return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by April 7 at 11:59p

If a 9/11 truther walked into your office and demanded your boss fire you, everyone would call the cops.

In Donald Trump’s administration, it means you’re out of a job.
