Rep. Crockett puts a major part of the United States' constitutional dilemma simply in this < 2 minute speech, putting blame where it squarely belongs.
And near the middle she highlights the consequence:
"... this is why we are failing as a country..."

Republicans only care about “following the rules” when they can weaponize them. But the second it cuts both ways, they go mute.
Pam Bondi and the DOJ have failed to comply with the subpoena and discharge petition — and y’all have nothing but excuses for them.

The article Mr. Reich refers to here is a pretty dang sobering read..
I want to share with you a piece from a German documentarian on the chilling parallels between ICE and Hitler’s Brown Shirts (reproduced with his permission). Please read and share.

The brutal Minnesota occupation—the Global War on Terror transplanted from Kabul or Baghdad to US soil—has a lot of people asking basic q's about ICE and CBP, so I wanted to explain the agencies' problems and what changed to bring this war to our streets. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...

"There comes a point when euphemism becomes collaboration."
Backstory: For boomers & their predecessors "collaboration" was a heavily tainted word, from WWII.
Younger generations have embraced the word for innocent, everyday team work.
Now, the taint returns. It means embracing an immoral enemy.

Worth noting losses to federal science extend well beyond these programs, e.g., to Dept of Agriculture, Dept of the Interior, and elsewhere. We've lost 30% of our federal colleagues at the USGS National Climate Adaptation Science Center in the past year.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Näinhän se on. Puolustusselonteossa ei haluttu nähdä tosiasioita. Eikä näköjään haluta nähdä vieläkään.
Tosiasia on se, että Yhdysvaltoihin ei voi enää luottaa. Ei ole voinut vuoden 2016 jälkeen. Eli kymmenen vuotta.
Trump ei ole tauti vaan oire. Tämä pitää ymmärtää.
