As I see it, MAGA political culture is intensely tribalist. The MAGAs view their opponents, not as fellow participants in a democracy, but as enemies best to be crushed by a strong, abusive leader who won't be constrained by legal, moral, and humanitarian scruples.

Oh, it was Zelensky that started the war? Like when a bully claims their victim started the fight because their face hurt his fist?

An ICE officer using an axe to smash into a 'suspected' immigrants car and drag them away. No proof, no warrant, just like the Gestapo.

Another day, another set of Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilians, this time in the city of Dnipro. If you can help Ukraine, this fundraiser is supporting the purchase of engineering equipment to help build protection against Russian drones in front line areas. www.paypal.com/donate?campa...

Nobody has seen or heard from Kilmar Ábrego García since he was deported to El Salvador. Today a US Senator went to El Salvador, he even saw the Vice President, but he wasn't allowed to see Kilmar Ábrego García. Donald Trump is desperately trying to cover this up.

1. This is a thread about Horticultural Extrapolation. Not something you're likely to have thought about, but it's time some people did. What is it? It's projecting the mechanics of fruit and veg growing onto the entire food system. It's surprisingly common, and frequently leads people astray. 🧵

If as a Democrat you can't draw a rhetorical through-line from Trump's abuse of IEEPA to bypass Congress, weaponising tariffs as his personal extortion racket, and his using ICE deportations to El Salvador to bypass immigration courts... ... you are bad at politics. Get out of politics.

Trump Turmoil China now faces up to 245% tariff on US exports. Trump administration has ignored court judgements, bullied universities, banned books, arbitrarily arrested people; shut govt depts, demanded control of Canada, Greenland, Gaza, Panama. Still no sign of Congress waking up.

Communities are organizing ICE patrols using radios and megaphones—but what we really need is an ICE alert website where people can share details of ICE activity in real time to help protect and inform one another.

"President Trump is trying to do something new and he is to be commended for his approach. It is up to other countries now to reduce their distortions so that we move ever closer to a world of no tariffs and no distortions" How did that work out with Brexit?

Trump plans to offer lower tariffs to 70 countries in exchange for cutting economic ties with China, the WSJ reports. That would mean: * blocking Chinese goods from transiting through their borders * banning Chinese firms from setting up operations * stop importing cheap Chinese industrial products
