A federal judge just asked the government if they're the cause of the violence in Chicago - whether this is of their own making.

Jon Seidel @jonseidel.bsky.social · 19h

Perry asks directly whether the feds started the alleged violence in Chicago.

She asks whether it matters if the inability to execute the law was "caused by the federal agents."

Hamilton: "No, your honor."

Lots of similarities between 1933 Germany and 2025 USA.

We know what happened in the 1940s. They did not.

That knowledge and another big difference could change our trajectory…if Republicans in Congress act in accord with their oath and common decency.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Today, Senator Kaine and I will force the Senate to vote on the administration’s decision to blow up ships in the Caribbean.

If a president can unilaterally put people or groups on a list and kill them, there is no meaningful limit to his use of force.

Understand what they are doing: using the massive power of the state - including military power and the power to imprison - to carry out a campaign to eliminate their political opposition.

It's growing in seriousness by the hour.

So here’s my overview on “Operation Freaky Friday,” ICE’s newest program intended to target unaccompanied minors—CHILDREN—by coercing them to deport by way of cash bribes.

Monsters are running this country.
