In an interview with Christiane Amanpour, historian Robert Kagan says all major US institutions have buckled before Trump. Only the people are resisting, he says, citing the scenes from the streets of Minneapolis which utterly infuriate Trump and his cronies, driving them to lethal violence.

Per @sbg1.bsky.social you have to go back to 1798 to find a congressman prosecuted for exercising his right to free speech www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

There needs to be some serious accountability for the colossal harm to life these absolute demons have caused, and will cause. Life in prison is the moderate option.
