This is what tyranny looks like.

Trump has turned the Department of Justice into his personal attack dog to go after his political enemies.

If there was ever any doubt about where things are headed…I am so angry. I can’t stop thinking about what could have been.

“.. the debate inside the administration has shifted recently, from whether it makes sense to invoke the act to more deeply exploring how and when it might be invoked ..”

Donald Trump really wants us to believe:

There’s not enough money to fix ACA healthcare premiums

There’s not enough money for Air Traffic Controllers

But there’s somehow $20 billion available to bail out Argentina?!

Bonta: Just minutes before the hearing, we got word that the Texas National Guard has been federalized.

We asked the judge to issue a broad order — one that applies to every National Guard unit in every state — stating that none of them can be deployed to Oregon.

She issued that order

“He takes food and health care from the neediest and tries to, in his words, traumatize people—then he calls himself a Christian,” a neighbor told Mother Jones. “Pretty despicable.”

Russ Vought is Trump’s shutdown hero. His neighbors think his work is "abhorrent."

The people living near Trump's "grim reaper" of government cuts have put up signs letting him know they stand with federal workers.

Keep fighting!

Governor Gavin Newsom @governor.ca.gov · 4d

After a federal court blocked his attempt to federalize the Oregon National Guard, Donald Trump is deploying 300 California National Guard personnel into Oregon. They are on their way there now.

We are taking this fight back to court.
