Trump’s White House UFC fight is an elevation of brutality.
Fascism has appeal because its energies exist within all of us. We all have the capacity for hate and violence. What makes liberal democracy unique is how it asks us to transcend our basest selves.

No American president has ever named ships or institutions after himself—until now. Trump’s gold-plated presidency isn’t about strength. It’s about fear, ego, and unmistakable ignorance.

Maybe just me but to me it's incredibly obvious what these "birthright deniers" are up to. It's not an academic project, it's a political one, attempting to provide cover for conservative jurists who are now being asked to rule on this very question, and need a fig leaf of justification.

The unifying feature of every dystopian fiction novel though is that everyone is AWARE of what is happening and the consequences therein. Hunger Games, Handmaids Tale, 1984, etc. All of them begin NECK DEEP in the chaos. We are in the beginning. And people don't want to heed warnings

Republicans have gerrymandered for decades. Ignored Democratic offers to end it. Initiated mid-decade gerrymandering on Trump's orders. But now if Democrats respond in CA, somehow that's big news, and certainly not Democrats, especially black Democrats, who are disenfranchised all over the country🙄

A great example of how the @nytimes.com centers white Americans and Trump supporters in its anecdotal political coverage. You never see stories like this about Black Democrats whose cities are cracked in Republican gerrymandering to give them Republican elected officials.

The passage of Proposition 50, which redrew California’s congressional map, means that all of the state’s conservative north is likely to be represented by Democrats.
