It’s becoming increasingly hard to tell the difference between ICE operating in Minnesota and the FSB operating in Russia. It all makes much more sense when you think about it. Here is the FSB in Russia:

Yes, Trump is a mortal danger to our freedom. But focusing on him alone is a huge mistake. An entire political party has betrayed us. As Edwin Eisendrath writes: "Since Trump came down that infamous escalator, Republicans have missed every off ramp on the highway to fascism."
Republicans failure to hold Trump to account makes them no different than the Chinese Communist party,Putin’s United Russia Party, Mussolini’s fascists & Hitler’s Nazis. The party comes first. Not the people, not the nation, not democracy, not anything. My latest:

The question isn’t whether Democrats should or will impeach Trump. The question is why won’t Republicans?
Since Trump came down that infamous escalator, Republicans have missed every off ramp on the highway to fascism. They will protect Trump to hold on to power no matter the cost to Americans.

Dear World:

America is literally BORROWING the money we are using to terrorize the world.

STOP lending us the money. Dump the treasury bonds you have and stop buying new ones. Just STOP.

Our Congress is too pathetic to reign in the demented monster in the WH.

So please cut off his MONEY!

Norske samfunnsdebattanter som framsnakker Trump-regimet. Eller ber oss gi etter for deres krav om land og makt.

Det de i praksis gjør er å være tidlig ute med å kjøpe aksjer i ei framtid der en slik fløy styrer Norge. De investerer i autoritært styre.

La oss sørge for at det ikke gir avkastning.

Big Oil spent nearly $100M to get Trump elected in 2024.

Now Trump is returning the favor, giving them advance notice of his Venezuela attack and inviting them to the White House to discuss how they will divvy up control of the country's oil.

Oligarchy in action.

One of the (several) problems with the demand that bystanders and targeted people be immediately compliant with ICE agents is that fleeing ICE is incredibly rational. They’re violent, piggish thugs who disappear some people into horrendous gulags and shoot others in the face.

Chris Murphy is on point here and sounding the alarm.

They're going for martial law.
Murphy: "As their agenda becomes more unpopular, they then become more dependent on trying to rig out democracy and rig the next election, bc nobody is gonna vote these guys back in ... You gotta connect the dots here. What they are trying to do is rationalize violence."

GOV. WALZ: “Now that Minnesota has been taken out of the investigation, it feels very difficult that we will get a fair outcome. And I say that only because people in positions of power have already passed judgment. They have stood and told you things that are verifiably false.”
