Pete Hegseth gave a speech in front of a backdrop that almost perfectly matches Nazi imagery. Meanwhile, Trump calls opponents “vermin” who he will “root out,” and says the blood of our country is being poisoned. We are far past left vs right. Our choice is democracy or fascism.

Trump’s not coming to Mobile for Tommy. That’s just an afterthought. Pretty clear that he’s in Mobile to campaign for another personal vanity project to have the new Mobile Bay Bridge that Tuberville voted against, named after him. At least Trump didn’t divert bridge funds for self promo TV ads.

Per @legaldefensefund.bsky.social and @splcenter.org, there have been insufficient investigations into these Black people's deaths especially in states with histories of racialized lynchings. For example, local law enforcement that investigate have a long history of racial bias and violence.
