Trump’s move to end DEI in schools and colleges was thrown out by a federal judge who declared it an unconstitutional violation of free speech rights in the classroom. But lots of schools and universities have ended the programs anyway, the kind of cowardice that threatens our basic rights.

The path is very clear: Republicans are creating a system to allow anybody—you, me, whoever—to have their citizenship revoked, sent to a prison camp in the Everglades, then exported to a labor camp in a third-world country. That entire pipeline could be in place in 24 hours.

To be really clear: The reason members of Congress can't just walk right in is because of the guns. Armed DHS personnel won't allow entry. In other words, DHS is using armed force to *break* laws. Democrats need to wrap their minds around that. Accept that the frog is boiled.
