So much of this country’s culture is incurably malignant. It’s as if we are two different species.

I want to see a hell of a lot more of “draws unified backlash from the press”

The Trump administration is waging all out war on science and knowledge—from climate change denialism to vaccine conspiracies to defunding institutional pillars—despite its unpopularity, because they don’t expect to compete in free and fair elections.

Remember we're already in a world of Kavanaugh stops based solely on ethnicity. If you are from a targeted group, this can happen to you no matter what your citizenship status is. What if you forget your wallet at home? You could end up in detention for days or worse.

Do you want to live in a "papers, please" country?
