Dictators need war to stay in power.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Here’s a hot take: I don’t want to see lawmakers posting holiday pictures from their mansions — I don’t care which party. Keep that shit to yourself.

The FBI has requested interviews with six Democrats regarding their video, which reminds troops to follow the Constitution. The Trump administration saw the now-infamous video as treasonous, called for them to be hanged, and is weighing court-martialing Sen. Mark Kelly. trib.al/8q3Jp04

This thread makes my gut clench, and I’d really love to know how many academics are *not* seeing this, and where they are and what field—because I already know it does ring true for many. I don’t teach undergrads at the moment (which I am not happy about) so I rely on others to know how f’ed we are

He only looks smart because his lies have overwhelmed a political culture that didn’t know how to respond to them. If I were a Trump fan, I’d start worrying about what happens when that stops. trib.al/A5Fl9FU

The other reason is they constantly insist they have brilliant ideas that are being oppressed like they’re all like Copernicus or something when in reality they are uniformly the dimmest bulbs out there.

The reason people don't like conservative students is that whenever they're inconvenienced or annoyed they throw a tantrum and call in national media to terrorize their peers.

It's coming.

Either we have a constitution, or we don’t. If Trump can invade countries without any congressional approval without consequences, we definitively do not have a constitution. We, the people, simply cannot allow him to get away with ruling lawlessly without consequences.

If Trump does go through with his threatened invasion of Venezuela without Congressional approval, that should absolutely be grounds for immediate impeachment proceedings. We would need mass, popular mobilization calling for his removal from office. It has to be a red line.

This is essentially Vinay Prasad, who has an MD, declaring his intent to use the government to torture children to dead via preventable disease by knowingly withholding the cure. To call this despicable is an understatement.

We now know that the man who shot the National Guard troops worked with the CIA for years in Afghanistan in a covert unit that was accused of the widespread killing of civilians. This raises so many questions about why this guy travelled from Washington State all the way to DC to shoot soldiers

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing. And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Think about all the evil assholes in this administration. They *all* expect to die of old age, obscenely wealthy, surrounded by family, because that is how the US has allowed *every single previous evil asshole* to live after doing their atrocities. They learned they will never be punished.

WOLFERS: “When a politician says: we’ll deregulate health insurance and send you a “freedom account” check, ask: freedom to buy what? If insurers don’t offer real policies or can cherry-pick only healthy people, that money is a coupon for a store that’s not open.” #MedicareForAllNOW

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

Something about the shooting yesterday doesn't feel right. It feels too convenient. A vetted Afgan national that was granted asylum, randomly shoots a National Guardsman near the WH for no reason right when the NG was set to leave DC because there was no violence. Now the NG is not leaving DC.

"Even if the U.S. were at war with the traffickers, an order to kill all the boat’s occupants if they were no longer able to fight 'would in essence be an order to show no quarter, which would be a war crime,' said Huntley, now director of the national security law program at Georgetown Law."
