The 1930s and the 2020s are dismayingly alike. Only this time Germany is sane and we are shockingly mad.

Texas voters got silenced. The rest of us can’t let that happen again.

Let’s go, California!
Vote YES on Prop 50 and keep elections fair. 🗳️

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

These *men* showed up at this market and grabbed the owner for no reason dressed in plain clothes with no identification.

They threw him to the ground as a Combat Vet shopping there calls the police on them! There was no warrant and he was a citizen.

How W. E. B. Du Bois responded to government policing of "anti-American" sentiment during the 1910s:

"I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, 'We are seeking to have the Constitution of the United States thoroughly and completely enforced.' ”

Federal agents invaded even the offices of The Crisis and the National Association for the advancement of colored people and asked searching questions: " just what, after all, were our objects and activities?” I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, “We are seeking to have the constitution of the United states thoroughly and completely enforced.” It took some ingenuity, even for Southerners, to make treason out of that.

Trump is now working to secure one party rule--just like Mussolini and Hitler did. Trump's new executive order designating Antifa a terrorist group is the first step in Trump labeling the infrastructure of the Democratic party as terrorists. deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-n...
