Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

1/ ❗Really chilling. Thanks to Sen. Mark Warner, for releasing Memo from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to FBI leadership ordering the purge. -Memo is a clear abuse of power and weaponization of DOJ -Memo bolsters FBI lawsuits filed today. VERY clear the list is for retaliatory purposes

Sen. Fetterman, @fetterman.senate.gov, I’m a constituent. Your phones in WB and DC disconnect when I call, so I’m contacting you here. Please against Russel Vought. He is dangerous to our nation. This is not the time to play nice with the GOP. This is the time to stand up for democracy. Thank you.

We the people must fight back. Many of our elected leaders seem a little “timid”. They will be remembered! Don’t come to our unions and look for money and people power in the next election. If we have to take our government back, “in the streets”, we will clean the whole house out. Not just the R’s!

Irony is dead in this moment along with common sense. Trump who squawked “but her emails” incessantly, let Musk (unelected/not a govt employee) send his crew of kids in to review classified information & plug devices of unknown origin into the government computer system, compromising everything.

Note that Donald Trump thinks that Karoline Leavitt, who hid the full extent of her campaign finance debt for years and who had ties to convicted fraudster Guo Wengui, is worthy of security clearance, but not military hero Mark Milley. Here's her tie to Wengui. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
