Donald Trump is calling for the jailing of his political opponents in Chicago. His DOJ lackeys have already indicted a NJ Congresswoman for conducting ICE facility oversight and James Comey. John Bolton's house was raided.
We must treat these latest threats seriously and all stand up against them.

News --> Steve Bannon tells me he fully expects Trump to use the Texas ICE office shooting as the hook to unleash law enforcement on liberal immigration groups by connecting political violence to anti-ICE rhetoric.

Trump’s Eruption of Rage at Texas ICE Shooting Hints at a Darker Story
To Trumpworld, the Dallas shooting appears to provide the perfect pretext to start silencing wholly lawful advocacy groups—for inciting “violence and terrorism.”

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

Now that Trump fired 17 Inspectors General, can we dispense with the notion that DOGE [sic] is about government efficiency?
Trump just told us -- he doesn't WANT efficiency, he wants graft.

Crime rates high? Stop gathering the data. Reject the climate crisis? Don't gather the data. Say anything that fits your narrative. Make up numbers. Ignore factual reality.
That's what we face. That's why we need to work hard to document what is knowable and true. To push back against the lying.

It's more important than ever to support independent media. It's a small price to pay for true information. Once the new administration is in office, the assault on truthful reporting will be unlike anything we've ever seen in the U.S. We must support truth if we want to keep access to it.

Important from Sen Chris Murphy: He says Dems are not functioning as an effective opposition to Trump's accelerating authoritarianism right now, and that this is dangerously complacent.
I pushed him on this, and we had a long exchange. In these four screen caps:

Chris Murphy: "I read the headlines about the Liz Cheney criminal referral and almost every single one of them in mainstream media played this straight as if it was a normal function of legislative power, instead of telling the truth, which is that this is made up out of thin air."
