Wow! Just watched S6 E13 of Deep Space Nine, Far Beyond the Stars. It’s a tour de force from all involved. Simply one of finest episodes of storytelling in the entire Trek canon.

Trump is seizing control of the investigative and prosecutorial powers of the state by staffing them with the most conspiratorial and blindly loyal nominees : Gaetz/Bondi, Patel, Gabbard.

Political retribution is his priority. The rest of governing he doesn’t care about.

Here is Trump’s nominee for FBI Director Kash Patel calling for “offensive operations” to jail Americans who they consider “the enemy.”

“We will go out and find the conspirators... Yes, we are going to come after the people in the media."

Things the U.S. already did to/within itself:

Slavery/Civil War
Over 100 years of Jim Crow shortly thereafter
Trail of Tears et seq
Manzanar
"Operation Wetback" (sorry)
Chinese Exclusion Act
McCarthyism, Hollywood blacklist, Hayes Code
Kent State
...

This is not meant to be a comfort btw

Hey kids, any Friday plans? There’s kind of a four loko & cheeseballs vibe going on tonight, am I right? That reminds me, Data, drop whatever you’re doing and find out everything you can about the possibility of a fifth loko. No Wes, I’m deadly serious. If it’s out there, we need to find it.

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

Nichols: You have the makings of a not so slow motion authoritarian takeover of the United States government. And people ought to be really concerned about this.

Oh WOW lithub.com/leaving-corm...

Been hearing a lot of things about this platform - how should I use it? Looks great!

Another failure of Merrick Garland. An utter and complete failure.
