Masked, anonymous men rove the country, beating and detaining anybody they care to, to meet their daily quota. Some of those people are sent to foreign concentration camps, without legal review. You are not allowed to fight back or resist in any way. These men are accountable to nobody.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Yazan. Yazan is only 17 years old and he wanted to study engineering when he grew up. Instead he is trying to fundraise for his entire family including his brother Louay, 19 and sisters Dana, 13 and Mayar, 10. He is also helping his parents ❤️

Virtually every MAGA Republican will now fall in line, and there won't be a passing second of introspection or contrition among those who credulously adopted the "Donald the Dove" nonsense, who, it should be said, helped bring us to where we are today.
