From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!)

Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."

Absolutely dangerous and insane that we're letting this happen. The courts letting Trump do this in L.A. in response to minor unrest -- and where Marines are *still* activated -- has emboldened him to do it everywhere. This is a clear, unambiguous breach of a founding democratic principle.
Trump is deploying 200 Marines to support his secret police force in Florida in actions targeting immigrants... as he increases the militarization of this effort.

Buried in the House’s budget reconciliation bill is a legislative provision that would undermine federal judges’ authority to enforce court orders by limiting their ability to hold government officials in contempt, a key tool for compelling compliance with court orders.
Trump’s Budget Bill Would Gut the Judiciary’s Power to Enforce Court Orders
By stripping judges’ ability to hold officials in contempt, the law would undermine their power to check Trump’s agenda.

Universities do not have to be "in sync with the administration and what the administration is trying to accomplish."
They are institutions of learning led by scholars who follow their research in search of knowledge. They support free inquiry and learning.
They are not political pawns.

Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.

96 people, including women who changed their names after marriage, were turned away from voting in New Hampshire under a new state law.
One voter had to make 3 trips to cast a ballot.
It's voter suppression – and the SAVE Act (in the U.S. Senate) would export this nationwide.

Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal.
Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration.
See how this works?

Vance's Easter visit to Rome clogged its streets with a 40-vehicle entourage. He also demanded the Coliseum be closed so he and his family could tour it alone. Tourists who properly booked slots in advance got screwed.
He's apparently the first to make that demand. Then he didn't bother to show up.

Their system told me there would be a two-hour wait time, told me to call back, and then just hung up.
