Eric Swallwell (D-CA) says it’s coming to an end and House Republicans are privately breaking, that a “jailbreak” is brewing the moment the Epstein files hit the floor, and that Trump’s aura of fear is finally cracking.

Jeffries: “Republicans acted with great urgency to swear in two right-wing members of congress to do in the American people… What is the delay with respect to Representative-elect. Grijalva? Anything to do with Republicans continuing effort to hide the Epstein files? Inquiring minds want to know.”

I think Trump would rather Congress never vote to reopen the government than let Adelrita Grijalva trigger the Epstein Files discharge. And I bet he doesn’t have a plan other than the Insurrection Act.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

James Comey is not a GNAT to be gotten rid of.

Trump’s turned the DOJ into a revenge machine — staging show trials through Pam Bondi and a beauty-pageant lawyer. This isn’t law & order. It’s a dictator auditioning for absolute power. ⬇️

Trump’s Political Persecution of Comey is Flagrant Criminal Abuse of Power

The indictment of James Comey is just the latest example of Trump weaponizing the Justice Department to go after his political enemies.

At the same time, he’s doling out favors to his supporters and allies – including white collar criminals. Watch: https://youtu.be/NflcWXdV-B0?si=QTTJev6Fml50pYgP

This is really informative; I have not thought enough about Miller's theory of things and it's good to see it laid out as well as Pritzker and Newsom's counter.

Greg Sargent @gregsargent.bsky.social · 16h

JB Pritzker and Gavin Newsom are doing something new and important: They understand Stephen Miller's theory of fascist power politics, and they've developed a theory on how to combat it. More Dems need to reckon with Miller's understanding of the moment.

New from me:
newrepublic.com/article/2014...

Inside Stephen Miller’s Secret Plan to Normalize Trump’s Dictator Rule

He wants to supercharge searing civil tensions to get low-information voters to embrace their inner authoritarian. Exactly two Democrats appear to fully grasp this.
