Historians sometimes say that when societies are descending into fascism, it can be hard for the people to notice it in real time. Well, historians of the future, I’m here to tell you: We are noticing. Millions of us are noticing. And we are horrified and enraged.
Memo to Future Historians: This Is Fascism, and Millions of Us See It
From Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

ICE tactics in Chicago are escalating.

Crashing into a woman’s car so they can grab her is unconscionable!

Looks like ICE again has a big, hot mess on its hands. This time with the arrest of a Chicago TV station employee.
Witnesses say Debbie Brockman was just standing nearby when ICE roared up. She was later released from custody without charge....now this:

Border Patrol Chief Greg Bovino said today that Brockman has “charges pending.” He also posted a photo of her in the ICE minivan after she was detained.

I asked how she wasn’t charged right away if she assaulted officers and what the charges will be but he hasn’t replied.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

Dearest Martha,

The front lines in Portland remain bleak. Today the local coffee-shop/bookstore/meditation space ran out of oat milk so I had to have soy in my favourite new latte.

And the frogs, Martha. Oh god the frogs.

How did Biden lay the foundation when the deal started in 2017? Genuinely curious.

In under-the-radar news: a GOP-aligned former election official just bought Dominion Voting. He wants to mirror trump’s election directives. His other company, KnowInk, has been tied to multiple voting failures. Now he controls the machinery & our votes. That should scare everyone.

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.
