But there have been two contrasting surprises: -- The speed and breadth of institutional capitulation -- The courage, ferocity, and resolution of regular people Our strength isn't our institutions. It's us. 361692487

ed lorah @edlorah.bsky.social · 27/01/2026This entire episode of PBS News covered MPLS, ICE, Alex Pritti, Kristi Noem, Greg Bovino, and Donald Trump; and not once did the words "fascist" or "fascism" come up. I also heard "shot" and "killed" in regard to Mr. Pritti, but I never heard the word "execution". Let's be precise with our words. 050

ed lorah @edlorah.bsky.social · 22/01/2026We were just talking about how absent the Democratic Party is these days as ICE and Trump's Cabinet of Super-Villains pile horror upon horror on our Democracy. Chuck Schumer has seized on "affordability" as the issue to run on in the Primaries, repeating the word the way Gollum speaks of his Ring. 010

ed lorah @edlorah.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Pete Hegseth gave an order to "kill them all". Was that because they were "narco-terrorists" or because he didn't't want to leave any witnesses alive. Especially if they were just fishermen. 110
