To repeat: I have studied a lot of cases of autocratization over the past 15 years. Wrote about them, taught about them, consulting about them.

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.
It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

Nothing radicalized me, I was born with basic empathy. The world decided that was radical.

I found it easier to understand Speake Mike Johnson once I realized he's not just a "flawed Christian."
He is the new Roy Cohn, another duplicitous closet case always eager to advance the agendas of genuinely awful people.
