I hear you, but I hope that doesn't happen. The Ballot Box is Trump's biggest fear.

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 19h

The people who want violent protests to happen are Trump, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Tom Homan, and other senior appointees in his admin. They are doing everything they possibly can to provoke people to violence and it is obvious that is what they hope for daily.

Identifying authorities in this manner should be against the law. But, with her in charge, where would that end up?

“I … met with the governor, met with the mayor, met with the chief of police, and the superintendent of the highway patrol. They’re all lying, and disingenuous, and dishonest people,” Noem said, because they wouldn’t back up her baseless claims that the streets were overrun with terrorists.

Why is “1984” so important to read today? “Because patterns repeat … It becomes relevant over and over again,” says @veronicarothbooks.com, author of the “Divergent” series #Velshi #VelshiBannedBookClub

Velshi Banned Book Club: George Orwell’s '1984' with author Veronica Roth

The influence of George Orwell’s “1984” continues to be relevant in today’s scary world. Any discussion of authoritarianism, surveillance, and the manipulation of truth invokes the dystopian landscape in Orwell’s novel. Reading “1984” is one of the first and most formative moments when American students are asked to consider government overreach and the fragility and malleability of their own minds. Veronica Roth, the author of another hugely influential dystopian series, “Divergent,” joins the Velshi Banned Book Club to discuss.

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."
