Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

This opinion is bad news for the Trump administration, which is going to have to defend itself against Abrego Garcia’s claim he’s being vindictively prosecuted. But that claim is supported by some of the government’s own emails. Read the details here: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
