Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

It has now become a pattern for the MAGA regime to arrest elected public officials such as Senator Alex Padilla and others, if you are still waiting too see if fascism has descended on the United States, well the wait is over, it’s now here and if you chose this, go fuck yourself.

It's quite possible that Whiskey Pete 1) is too stupid and 2) has no aides to figure out he needs to coordinate with LAPD, in which case this will become a clusterfuck very quickly. is he going to feed the Marines? Or are they supposed to live off the land?

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

I loathe Musk as much as anyone else but for a sitting president to openly threaten a private citizen over what political donations he or she chooses to make is a reminder of how authoritarian this country is becoming by the day - by the hour even!

NEW: Texas lawmakers quietly rejected a proof of citizenship bill for voter registration in a surprise move for the deep-red state. Advocates say Republican lawmakers backed off when they realized it could disenfranchise their own voters. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

What happened yesterday should radicalize you The LA ICE raid was full-on fascism The Abrego Garcia case is an abomination. We have a government that concocts charges against anyone it doesn't like, and pardons any criminal that supports Trump. And they are just getting started Free Kilmar!

New in PN: Law for lawlessness "In a brisk 4 paragraphs, the Court’s six GOP justices all but demolished the legal basis for the independent agencies. The decision highlights the lawlessness of the Court and is likely to further embolden a president who is very keen to place himself above the law."
