And we are surprised? Horrified, yes.
Trump appears to have relied on a deluded conspiracy theorist for advice on national security. A loopy influencer has carried more weight with the president than a four-star general, writes @arusbridger.bsky.social.

This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.
It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

Trump is doing exactly what he said he was going to do. He’s doing it more chaotically and more quickly and more thoroughly than imagined, but no one should be surprised at all who was paying attention. The fact the business community got played is a sign of their own poor political analysis.
“.. At the end of last year, the attitude was, ‘Full on, this is going to be an exceptionally pro-growth agenda and it will be executed in a clear way.’ All of that has gone in reverse.”

Think it’s important to highlight how everyday violence of the U.S. criminal legal system is making what ICE is doing possible: this man was convicted of a crime at *16*; he was *pardoned*; when ICE came decades later they claimed the conviction made him a felon w/ no recourse against deportation
Rodney Taylor is a beloved Georgia barber who came to the United States from Liberia with his mother when he was only two years old. He applied for citizenship but was denied. But this year, ICE arrested him, locked him up, and has scheduled him to be deported to a faraway country he's never known.
