If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?

No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens.

Fascism is here.

From @theathletic.bsky.social: A range of baseball hats featuring all 30 MLB teams went viral when fans spotted the vulgar Spanish word the design accidentally created. The Texas Rangers hat has since disappeared from the online shop.
