Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

ICE stormed a residence hall at Augsburg University, detained an undergrad, and aimed rifles at students and staff before admitting they had no warrant to be there. This is state violence. This is terror. And this is what Trump’s America unleashes on our communities.

Russia began and fostered the global "Anti-Vax" conspiracies as yet another way to undermine Western Democracy; to destroy us with disinformation, social division, and resulting disease and chaos. Foolish Americans who bought into Russian anti-vax conspiracies, like RFK Jr., are a threat to America.

ICE use of Border Control agents is disgusting. Most of these agents are criminals with a badge, running free rein on innocent people. Just like the prison guards ICE has hired. They are thugs and losers.

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law. This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

This week, MAGA figures claimed Kristi Noem "stared down" violent antifa protesters in Portland. Turns out they were talking mostly about a guy in a chicken suit. This episode opens a window into how MAGA propaganda works and MSM failure to handle it. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2016...
