I grew up understanding that one day I may have to defend the People from fascist authoritarian thugs. I didn’t really expect it would be my own government elected by gerrymandered voting, but here we are… #PunchNazis

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped spread the word. Thousands of Minnesotans gathered tonight for a vigil honoring Renee Good, who was murdered by ICE agents. Let’s get ICE out of MN!

To be clear: we are still at the (analogous) point where the Underground is being legally executed by the Nazis. That doesn’t mean the Underground is in the wrong…

Ya know, John Oliver made a good case against the existence of Conspiracy Murder as a crime… but the ICE brown-shirts’ murder of a woman in Minneapolis are a pretty good argument for it, today.

What the United States did in Venezuela is prohibited under international law, which bars the use of force as an instrument of national policy.

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

On an obviously unrelated note: on this day in 1942, Jewish resistance was attacked in their Kraków safe house by German forces. Resistance leaders Liebeskind and Tenenbaum were killed.

I’m not a member of any org that can be described as “Antifa”. But I’m 100% anti-fascist, in belief & action. As were my forebears, who fought against authoritarian regimes on behalf of the US. And I say this: anybody who’s anti-anti-fascist is a fascist, and guilty of treason. #ImpeachTrump

For most of my life I’ve thought the US govt was mildly incompetent and inefficient. Now, thanks to the Trump MAGA regime it is, apparently, a corrupt criminal enterprise at best.
I have so much anger and sadness. It will take so much work to restore the American idealism I grew up with.

Have you ever wondered when the “right” time to fight the Nazis began?

I can definitely say this: it was earlier than the mainstream acceptance of anti-Nazi force…
