Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Investigations are now underway into officers and ICE agents who fired crowd-control munitions at dangerously close range. In case after case, the situation only escalated when force was used against peaceful protesters.

The New York Times making it sound as if the United States is just about to join a super-prestigious club, when it's really slipping (slipped?) into the company of countries ruled by extrajudicial despots.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Remember when rightwingers warned us about tyranny? Said they were stockpiling guns to stop a government that silences dissent, targets citizens, violates courts, and uses propaganda? Well it’s here. And the “patriots”? They’re cheering. Turns out their guns were for obedience to it.

Love this!
