When it's too late, all the establishment and corporate bootlickers will realize no matter how much you try to placate MAGA, it's never enough. It's a fascist movement that doesn't care about rules or reciprocity. It's about gaining power by any means necessary. It's all projection all the time.

I’ve said it before but it is embarrassing that so many intellectuals spent years in small factional battles over the propriety of calling this fascism.

The notion that cutting thousands of public servants from the Forest Service, and thousands more from the National Park Service and BLM, is somehow going to make this country better off is just lunacy.

What? Biden blocked the purchase of US Steel by Nippon to keep it an American company. Trump allowed the sale to Nippon, stating the even though Nippon owns it, US Steel will remain a US company. Wharton needs to take Trump's degree back.

What ICE is doing is not deportation or detention. It's kidnapping. It's human trafficking, delivering individuals to companies/countries in transactions for financial gain. We need to upgrade our language. Words matter.

Amazon planned to display cost of Trump's tariffs. Trump complained — Amazon backtracked. This of course comes after Bezos donated to Trump's inauguration and Amazon bought a Melania documentary. And remember that Amazon is being sued by FTC for antitrust violations. Hello?

Ten years of Trump going on TV and just fucking saying whatever, and still nothing like an industry set of best practices to deal with it. Put someone on the set with a laptop to look stuff up, pause the interview, whatever. He'd walk off but so what. Amazing to still be at "agree to disagree."

This vague and subjective wording is deliberate. So basically, if you live in a neighborhood or city that is gang infested, you are a target simply for the crime of living in poverty. You could have a friend, family member, who took the wrong path, and be jailed simply because you know them….

Great talk from @mskellymhayes.bsky.social on being in college in an era of autocracy and cruelty. I'm showing this to my daughter, who is about to graduate high school. If you've got an older teen or young adult in your life, this is a recommended read. organizingmythoughts.org/must-reads-a...

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

If someone is arguing against due process, just ask them if they believe someone is innocent until proven guilty. It's the same thing.

they are running up against, as all bloodthirsty anti-immigrant parties do, the problem that many migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers are not actually lying about having life-threatening reasons for leaving their home countries, and thus "deterrence by cruelty" converges to "murder and torture"

The entire POINT is to cultivate an obedient press and docile population that accepts accusations without pushback. The fact that the administration’s accusations are increasingly overtly ass-damp is a feature, not bug.

If you’re charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump personally helps bring you back to the US. If you’re a working-class father of three charged with no crime, Trump says it’s not “up to” him.

This administration sent 200+ fathers, sons, and husbands to be tortured in a foreign prison for the rest of their lives. 9 in 10 have no criminal record. None received any due process. If you aren’t outraged, you need to check your fucking humanity.
