"Fascism Doesn’t Always Arrive by Force. Sometimes It Comes as Law" A visit to the National Holocaust Museum in Amsterdam showed me how changes in the law were used by the Nazis to push their agenda. It’s a warning from history we must heed before it's too late. @kimwehle.bsky.social for Zeteo:

Texans RB honored two Palestinian sisters, "Lana" and "Bana," by writing names on his eye black during a game. This follows a previous incident where NFL ordered him to remove the name of another Palestinian child, "Wafaa Akila," from his eye black under threat of being barred from playing.

ProPublica dropped the first story in a new series on corruption in Congress, and it starts with Sen. Susan Collins. A defense contractor illegally funneled $150,000 to a pro-Collins PAC. The company’s CEO later pleaded guilty to unlawful campaign contributions.

I think the arch nonsense is more about claiming a ludicrous security purpose in the litigation like he did for the ballroom. But the general point is true: he has absolutely no intention of a peaceful transfer of power in Jan 2029, and planning and preparation for that is no doubt already underway.

Protesters gathered near West Anderson Lane and U.S. 183 after an ICE officer shot 28-year-old Wilber Rafael Garces Perez in North Austin. People arrived with loudspeakers, music, and signs demanding answers about why the officer opened fire. Police used chemical agents to disperse part of the crowd
