We need to face facts of history: the entire political and legal system in America is and generally always has been set up to protect a minority against the majority, and Trump and his puppeteers do NOT want this to ever be changed.
NB: the minority in question is "extremely rich white men."

The President intends to tell the US military to murder US civilians, and is using the FBI to threaten anyone who wants to stop him.
The FBI has requested interviews with Democrats who appeared in a controversial video reminding U.S. service members of their duty to disobey unlawful orders, deepening the Trump administration’s campaign to punish some of its fiercest critics.

Exactly. For example this gem from 1999 is now returning as Starmer policy.
Imagine Winston Churchill suggesting Jewish refugees fleeing the Nazis need to hand over all their jewellery so Winston can give tax cuts to Henry Ford, an American billionaire white supremacist.

Taking asylum seekers jewellery is a hardy Labour trope.
In 1999 Mike O’Brien MP immigration minister proposed legislation to take asylum seekers valuables worth over £2,000.
Asked if that meant taking asylum seekers jewellery in committee he said, ‘that is exactly what we will do’

The way Labour are talking about migrants validates far right narratives of dehumanisation *at a time of far right riots and racist violence*. The leadership group responsible needs to be removed right now as a matter of public safety. This is simply a factual description of the situation before us.
Honestly, the potential case for getting rid of Starmer before was the lack of any political project and absence of charisma. But now No.10 is creating a moral imperative for the PLP to act as well.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

There's one central rule in working against autocrats - if they see you as weak, if you attempt to appease, you are creating a permission structure for them to escalate, to take more.

With our big election win last week, and Trump's clear political and physical decline, Dems should be more ambitious now, and fight even harder, for the country and the American people. Voters saw us fighting for them & we were rewarded across the country 👇
