There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Yesterday, Trump was threatening a reporter. Today, he coerced ABC to kick Kimmel off the air. He's also suing NYT & WSJ for reporting the truth. And it's not just media: he's threatening private companies, colleges, Congress—everyone. Enough. NONE OF US should cave. We ALL need to push back.

The only conclusion left is that the administration just wants to kill people because it makes them feel good and powerful, and because they are white supremacist eugenicists. Vance saying “I don’t give a shit” that bombing a boat of Venezuelan migrants is a war crime says it all.
