I think Trump has made a fatal error that could hasten the end of American Fascism under the right circumstances. I’m not saying it’s a done deal by any means, and I’m not saying there isn’t intense danger ahead, but it really feels like he stepped right into a motherfucker of a mess.

They’re killing people in the concentration camps. The kids they’re not killing are going through some of the worst trauma humanly imaginable.
This is what’s happening outside the people we’ve seen murdered in broad daylight. Lock the fuck in, people.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets.
Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party.
This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

I am hearing that on his deathbed Dick Cheney received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada. Even now he looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his prophet!

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.
Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

We will need Nuremberg-like trials
ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.
Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.
He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

There will be a point at the trials when the prosecutors are going to want to prove a depraved indifference to human life, and man are they going to be spoiled for material.

The trauma of this event will reverberate in everyone who witnessed it. The tragedy of the American Right is that they don't *believe in trauma,* and so all they do is turn it into outrage and revenge.
"Feelings aren't facts," I heard once. But unexamined feelings lead people to distort facts.

Trump’s FBI Raid of John Bolton’s Home Looks Like a “Five Alarm Fire”
Thus far little is known about Friday’s law enforcement action against a top Trump critic. But we’re seeing an escalation of authoritarian power on many fronts that has grown unmistakable.

SUBWAY GUY DID NOTHING WRONG
AG Bondi says a DOJ employee has been fired after he was arrested for allegedly throwing a wrapped Subway sandwich at a federal law enforcement officer in Washington, D.C.
Following his arrest, the man allegedly told one of the arresting officers: “I did it. I threw a sandwich.” wapo.st/3Uq59TN
