You want to know what it feels like to live in Minneapolis right now?
Watch movies set in East Germany during the cold war.
I think the comparisons to nazi Germany are less apt than Soviet Germany. Though, it's a distinction without a difference on the ground here, they're attacking Americans.
We have to stop reacting.... when we see/hear "a &/+ b" we need to anticipate a very dark "c", not the one we imagine, ... stop believing in peoples "better angels" .... we must take "a&b" to its darkest place and prepare from there.... thinking "that would never happen" is not an option... it's possible at least 3 or 4 of the maga supremes may have thought "that would never happen" and look where we are now, we have to go to the dark places these monsters inhabit and kneecap them.. or as my Italian grandfather would say "make them walk straight the rest of their lives" for us, metaphorically, for him , not so much
The bond market's where it's at. That was the source of his original TACO.
That market cares about very fundamental things that are arcane to most of us. The fucking with Powell is very, very big. He has hired a mad-dog law firm to go back after Trump and his shit squad. The loss of the dollar's place as the world's reserve currency could also cause shifts in the markets to safer havens. We're talking institutionals and sovereign wealth funds. Those hombres don't play.
Description of “actionable accountability “ is very comprehensive and reasonable. This president is such a coward who enjoys watching others behave in aggressive, violent ways. It is a vicarious sense of accomplishment for him. Very dangerous man.
I agree with this, but I'm not sure how any of these suggestions will become reality, with a spineless, cowardly GOP, and the MAGA cult that will never, EVER, abandon Dear Leader Trump. Have you watched Fox lately? There is Sean Hannity insisting that anyone with eyes could see that Renee Good was trying to run over the ICE goon that murdered her, as he throws softballs to Goon Leader Greg Bovino who talks about a four-ton missle that Renee was using as a weapon. And the MAGA cult keeps cheering for this sort of crap. I'm not giving up; just saying it's going to be a difficult road ahead.
Write your elected folks right now,this morning, Democrats and Republicans,senators and representatives, and tell them what you want. Copy them on this substack. Share it with friends, and ask that they also contact their elected folks. If they don’t hear from us, they assume that whatever they do or don’t do is fine by us. Masked men with guns terrorizing the population is definitely not American, and must be stopped right now.
You are right. On the other hand, if your senator, like mine, is Ron Johnson, or someone like him, then you know from experience that he or she doesn't give a shit what an anti-Trump voter thinks.
He may not give a shit, but he needs to hear it. His electability could be threatened if enough people are unhappy. I would promise him this..that if he is silent and submissive, and supportive of ICE thuggery and Trump lawlessness….You’ll vote for ANY primary challenger to him for ANY elected position that he ever aspires to. And even if you’re not a Republican, you can vote in a primary, even if you must temporarily change registration. These folks are not invincible.

Agreed. And we cannot directly, kinetically, attack Trump's thugs. This has turned into asymmetric warfare. It's sand in the gears time.
I'm wondering if the stock market could knee cap him... his oligarchs will be demanding in ways we cannot be

ICE is a terrorist organization and we need democrats to say so. Schumer and Jeffries are leading us all to our deaths by lack of fire and fight.
100%.

Anyone deemed inconvenient. Says it all. How and when are we going to be able to rid ourselves of these vermin? Can’t be soon enough.
