Yesterday, ICE murdered an American citizen.
The only way to prevent future horrors is to prosecute and ensure full accountability up the entire chain of command.

The government is saying that violence rules. That snatching foreign leaders and territories, and shooting US citizens in their cars at point blank range, is justified. That resistance is not only futile, it is dangerous. They can say these things. But they cannot force us to believe them.

The road to authoritarianism is littered with people telling you you’re overreacting.

These docs were clarifying to me as a barely engaged voter most of my life. They light a fire but negate the gaslighting at the same time—the government IS full of conspiracies but of deep pockets and invisible power, not as sensationalist as pedo sex rings, but no less vulgar and grotesque
For my weekly NPR TV column, despite the depressing state of politics, I still highly recommend Alex Gibney's HBO doc The Dark Money Game, which explores how an avalanche of money into politics led to a $61 million scandal in Ohio and threats to democracy. Plus more of The Rehearsal: loom.ly/csF3zhY
What's on TV: 2 new documentaries, a Western, a comedy, and 'The Rehearsal'
A new HBO film project traces how the Citizens United decision has reshaped democracy in recent years. Also this week, a new Netflix Western looks a lot like Yellowstone, and The Rehearsal is back.

Florida: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez (20) is being held in the Leon County Jail, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien."
Lopez-Gomez is a U.S. Citizen, born in the USA. He showed his U.S. birth certificate in court. The judge held him in jail anyway.
This is Fascism.
