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

Then imagine you did that, providing medical interventionsβsaving lives.
Now imagine someone ending it. Putting children at risk of death and harm.

Masked Federal Agents Are Undermining Trustβand Democracy
Federal and local law enforcement wearing masks is just plain unamerican. Itβs a cowards move, and shows the fact that the kinds of deportations happening and the methods are, shameful and unpopular.
