When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

Just so I am keeping everything straight…the government can’t tell you to wear a mask because FREEDOM!!!!, but it can decide you are a “terrorist” and send you to a foreign gulag without due process and throw away the key. That right?

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Hey, do you know what you call a guy who never admits a mistake, who becomes President of the United States by never admitting a mistake, who then convinces his entire presidential administration to never admit—let alone correct—any mistake, leading to innocents getting life sentences? A sociopath.

Thank YOU for coming out! This is exactly why we do this. One objective of these rallies has been for people in red and swing areas to start seeing and finding one another. There is power in numbers. We also bring local organizers onstage to speak and highlight local issues. It’s been great 💜

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

I don't care how many junior staffs Hegseth or others throw under the bus. Hegseth HIMSELF was on the Signal group chat. He used his fingers to enter the sensitive military info into the chat. He bears 100% full responsibility for that -- no matter how many scapegoats he finds.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Authoritarianism

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

Yeah, it's the people describing him as the father of an autistic child who are "sensationalizing" this, and not the people who are insisting this guy with no criminal record is actually some sort of Super Terrorist Voltron who's worse than Osama bin Laden, MS-13 and Pablo Escobar combined.

Just so we’re clear, everybody calling Kilmar Abrego Garcia a “terrorist” or a “gang member” are lying, and they know they’re lying, and they repeat it for purposes of confusing people who don’t follow this stuff closely into accepting what was done to him.
