Congress is failing us, as is the Supreme Court.

"Those who study the law and are experts on the balance of power warn that unless Congress reasserts its authority soon, we may end up unable to repair the guardrails that have held our government together for centuries."
The OTHER Democratic Demand for Reopening the Government
It’s about stopping Donald Trump and Russ Voughtβ€”and it can’t happen soon enough.

Stephen Miller on Fox threatens to arrest JB Pritzker for "seditious conspiracy" and says, "to all ICE officers: you have federal immunity in the conduct of your duties. And anybody who lays a hand on you or tries to stop or obstruct you is committing a felony."

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.

They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Autocrats want you to feel like pushing back is hopeless. It’s not! Trump is a paper tiger. Most Americans don’t want this authoritarian takeover.

Longest government shutdown in US history - 35 days (Dec β€˜18 - Jan β€˜19)

Second longest shutdown - 22 days+ (Oct 1st β€˜25 - present day)

Both shutdowns occurred under Trump.

How Americans let this criminal lunatic keep failing upwards will vex historians for generations to come.

I heard from people who have experienced ICE's terror campaign in Chicago.

People snatched off the street and disappeared. People dropping their kids off at school. People on their way to work. They're not criminals. They're the backbones of our communities.

Hello! I come to you from a place called Facebook, where zealous single-issue anti-Mamdani voters are a real thing. Also from a place called "the Upper West Side," which, same. So to anyone out there who thinks he has this in the bag: No victory laps yet. A good day to vote is TOMORROW.
