This might be the most nakedly corrupt document I’ve seen on DOJ letterhead — and I wrote a history of Watergate!

This is — literally — unheard of in federal prosecutions. We can’t prosecute him because he’s a candidate for office? Wow.

🧵 I've read more than 60 books on WWII and authoritarian rise in my lifetime and, like many others, I've been screaming about Donald Trump's fascist tendencies for years now. But what, exactly, does it mean to be a fascist? And, is that an appropriate label for the current US President? You tell me!

On Monday, Trump fired Travis LeBlanc and every other non-Republican member of the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board—a bipartisan watchdog meant to prevent government surveillance abuse. Now, the board has been effectively gutted.

IF (big IF) we get through this, both Congress and the Courts need their own enforcement mechanisms. We cannot TRUST that the Executive branch will act with fidelity and transparency. Until then, if the courts can't stop them and Congress won't stop them, is it now upon the people to stop them?

Who is going to uphold the rule of law in the US? The courts do not have an ability to enforce their judgements. Congress has no police force and the Sergeant at Arms has limited ability to do much. Is it the people now who must act? @democracydocket.com

These graphics are significantly wrong, @wired.com TYT is 4x of Hasan. Probably was in August, too. And Lindy Li writes on the right, not the left. Completely untrustworthy. Geez. www.wired.com/story/visual...
