You know how like, when a trade happens with your team and so you go to the other teams subreddit to see their fans reaction to losing the player you’re acquiring?

If you’re an oilers fan, stay off the Penguins subreddit today. It’s like the liberation of East Germany over there.

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.

This is who MAGA is now.

A good read - and even more cements my belief that these killings are flat out morally wrong
The Trump administration’s military strikes on alleged drug boats are “blatantly unlawful as a matter of U.S. domestic law—and a quickly spreading stain on whatever is left of the executive branch’s commitment to the rule of law.”

Me on “extrajudicial killings” in the latest issue of “One First”:
188. Five Questions About "Extrajudicial Killings"
There is no obvious legal argument to support President Trump's expanding campaign of strikes against alleged drug boats in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean. And the implications are even scarier.

What are we doing - this shit is evil.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

This is the most compelling case I’ve seen yet that America is no longer a democracy but an authoritarian state.

Not a *soon-to-be* authoritarian state—a *current* one.
