@fpwellman.bsky.social: Bovino doesn't just go home. Kristi Noem doesn't get to ride off into the sunset with Corey Lewandowski on her horse. Stephen Miller doesn't get to order federal agencies to break the law and then move over to Fox News. Investigate, prosecute, punish. No one is above the law.

Vital steps that we can all take now to help stop fascism: - Get out onto the streets in large numbers each day; and - Identify leaders among us who can create a Project 2026 or 2028. In other words, a platform, a plan, a shared vision that we can all rally around. #StopFascism #Unite #Liberate
