This should worry everyone.
“US officials contacted by Reuters were surprised by Trump's announcement and unaware of any ongoing military operations to enforce a closure of Venezuelan airspace.”
Trump’s failing faculties could walk the US into war.

Look, every single “deal” reached by a university with the Trump administration is a moral stain that will be seen with deep embarrassment once we’re through this. But for Northwestern to do this now, when the administration is visibly weakened, is even more shameful and inexcusable.

This is one advantage of having the historical memory of authoritarianism, as I have from Brazil: you know that, when the regime is gone, the people who collaborated and acquiesced look terrible in retrospect. It may look reasonable and justifiable now, but believe me, it will age like milk.

My social media focus today has been a weird juxtaposition of celebrating one of the happiest days of my friends lives and some of the most horrifying current US political events.
For my followers, sorry for the seesaw back and forth. We will be focusing on happy thoughts for the rest of today.

Look forward to Bari Weiss asking "has identity politics gone too far?" while studiously ignoring the most virulent identity politics driving American government
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.

‘Remigration’ is a term that comes out of the European far right. Its use by the DHS account is a sign of democratic and epistemic collapse

It is a sign of democratic collapse because explicit white racism appears to be the policy of the US Government. Non white citizens no longer have the same protection under the law as white ones. We are all potentially identifiable as members of "disruptive populations"

It is a sign of epistemic collapse because the whole concept is based on pseudo-scientific notions of racial or genetic propensity for crime or violence, and has come up through the consppiratorial milieu of European Identitarianism ...

This is white supremacy and fascism. The official DHSgov account has been posting white nationalist messages for awhile. That it has continued for so long is indicative this is what the Admin wants to achieve.
The Trump gov's official policy is ethnic cleansing and genocide.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.
If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

Also, Hegseth is coming for Sen. Mark Kelly because he reminded troops that they have a duty not to commit crimes *like this one*
Making an appropriately big deal out of this blunts that attack and demonstrates the need for what Kelly and company did.

The reality, of course, is that Miller and a significant portion of Trump’s base are the ones who failed to assimilate to America’s post-WWII culture of multi-racial democracy & religious pluralism…and they are now using their power to destroy that once dominant (and still popular) American culture.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Part of the problem is people think what persuades them is logic and facts.
In reality, most people's opinions are shaped primarily what they perceive to be the views of the community they're in.
So if you hang out with Nazis all day, it starts to feel "normal."

This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).
It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.

Corporate Media is going to pretend that Trump is heartbroken about the two West Virginian National Guardsmen being shot in DC, but the entire point of moving a standing army into a peaceful city was to induce violence by The People to justify more violence by Trump on The People in retaliation.
