I want to highlight just how closely the Wurman-Barnett arguments in 2025 parallel those made by the United States against Wong Kim Ark’s citizenship in 1898. And rejected. I do not think this can be coincidence. Here’s a summary of the US’s arguments, via @jnovkov.bsky.social

You can tell that Zelenskyy is not actually a dictator because Trump isn't complimenting him.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

So if Russia invaded America, we should just surrender?

We are doomed to relive every stupid thing about the 80s. Only this it’s not just the mistakes of the 1980s corporate greed. It’s also the 1880s post reconstruction environment, and the 1780s love of slavery. :(

How about we also fire the worst 1% of the top 1%. That will weed out the most corrupt and criminal, such as this richest human here who dishonors the species by abusing his good fortune.

My take, essentially, is that we could be weeks or maybe even days away from the disintegration of the rule of federal law in this country. At some point this administration is going to stop obeying court orders. What then? Nothing good.

A sobering analysis of the historical roots of the top-down, tech-bro revolution against American democracy we've been watching unfold in real time since January 20. Saving democracy from this assault is not just a matter of winning back the house in '26. www.notesfromthecircus.com/p/the-plot-a...

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

talking about fascism being imperialism turned inward, the private security company reportedly providing protection to musk's doge team is triple canopy, formerly known as blackwater. literally the same mercenaries they used in iraq are now helping stage a coup in the u.s.

Markey held a press conference & then was denied entry into a federal building by that guard. That "guard" is a member of Triple Canopy private paramilitary organization that merged with Erik Prince’s notorious Blackwater group. Paramilitary now in control of our federal buildings.

This is not a U.S. Marshal, Federal Protective Service, or any other federal law enforcement officer. This is a private security guard from Triple Canopy. He has no authority to block members of Congress who have oversight of the EPA from entering the building.

The armed individual who blocked senators from entering federal property bears the insignia of "Triple Canopy", which merged with Blackwater in 2014. This is a mercenary paramilitary guard for Musk and his minions. Anyone wearing this insignia should be considered extremely dangerous. #resist

That’s not just a security guard, it’s a member of the Triple Canopy private paramilitary organization that merged with Erik Price’s notorious Blackwater group.

The Triple Canopy. Why is Blackwater blocking Congress from entering federal property?

Fascism is when Donald Trump bans 1600+ vetted Afghan Muslim refugees who helped USA against the Taliban—but now issues an Executive Order accepting white Afrikaner South Africans as refugees to the USA. It was never about justice or national security. It was always about advancing white supremacy.

All of the so-called "patriots" who are cheering the felon's dismantling of DEI is indicative as to why it was needed in the first place. That's right. There are people among us who never wanted women, the disabled, or people of color to have equal opportunities. True story☕️

One Roberts clerk, one former Gorsuch clerk, and one future Gorsuch clerk. All working for DOGE to help Musk usurp the government. Like I wrote earlier today, the courts are not going to stop this.

Trump is revoking Pres. Biden’s security clearance, plans to fire the Kennedy Center leadership and make himself the chair, and demands WaPo columnist Eugene Robinson be fired for criticizing weak Republicans who don’t stand up to Trump. This miserable mam is a blot against America.

Notable that Elons crew of incels and edgelords are full fledged men for the purposes of being given the keys to car to run the govt. But for the purposes of being accountable for their actions they’re just kids from good families with youthful indiscretions.
