Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

The fact that a reporter was inadvertently given access to this in real time shows that Pete Hegseth & the rest of this crew are bumbling incompetents who are going to get a lot of intelligence officials and others killed at some point. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Ahead of Germany’s election, with anti-immigrant sentiment rising, they released viral videos showing life without immigrants. History proves that when a country starts erasing certain people, it doesn’t end well. 🧵

Dear Trump voters, You weren't just fooled by Trump. It was Republicans in Congress. It was FOX News. Remember when David Pecker of New York Post testified that they used to let Trump shoose the cover stories that they made up? It was organized to fuck you over. Now you know. Join the fight.
