6. Trump and his administration are out of control

Tuesday

Read Trump's words carefully. "if people were to be killed or something". Expect a few possible ICE sacrifices in the next few weeks in order to get his Insurrection Act. Trump, the scotus six and the Republican Party want a police state. They always have.

Democrats, progressives and the rest of the non-trumpers need to go scorched Earth on the right. Use every obscure law and every dirty trick. Trump and the MAGAs need to go.

But I have my doubts even that will do any good to stop what's happening now.
