Some great advice from @theframelab.bsky.social on how to describe what Trump is doing.
“Trump is following the dictator playbook & creating a crisis. Authoritarians create fake emergencies to seize power & destroy democracy.”

Trump’s Fake Emergencies Follow Authoritarian Playbook
Trump is using fake crises to grab power, echoing tactics of autocrats. Americans must recognize the pattern and resist.

An Army vet heading to the VA took a wrong turn—and was detained by Marines in LA. While they acted professionally, their detaining him was likely illegal under the Posse Comitatus Act. It’s another line being crossed—and it puts our Marines in a bad spot. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...
Exclusive: US Marines carry out first known detention of civilian in Los Angeles, video shows
Marines deployed to Los Angeles carried out the detention of a civilian on Friday, the U.S. military confirmed after being presented with Reuters images, in the first known detention by active-duty troops deployed there by President Donald Trump.

I am immunocompromised & suffer from crushing fatigue. It would be almost impossible for me to attend a protest.
This video means a lot to me. I really want to be hitting the pavement & often feel guilty that I can’t do it.

Hey, if you’re not able to attend #NoKings events in person—whether it’s because of chronic pain, disability, mental health, caregiving, work, or just needing rest—you don’t owe anyone an apology.
Your voice matters.
Your safety matters.
And you are still a powerful part of this movement. 💙

With this unconstitutional regime, we won’t know their rules until we break them. Senator Padilla is proof of that. They do not allow members of Congress to do their constitutional duty. They will not hesitate to turn their power on everyday citizens if we stay silent.

I am as big a sucker as anyone for the fine-grained legal analysis, but I do sometimes worry it distracts us a little from the big, dumb, obvious points. This is appalling & precisely what the Framers were terrified of. Whether it’s technically legal if you squint right doesn’t change that.
The president of the United States in our time is not supposed to wield armed troops and even station marines on American soil because of political speech and assembly he doesn’t like, that is typically not allowed and no I don’t care if any of it is technically “legal”

This video from Senator Padilla's staff, shared to Twitter by Fox LA's Elex Michaelson, shows Padilla forced to the ground by men wearing FBI uniforms who then handcuff him behind his back. This is after he is forcibly removed from the Noem press conference for asking a question.
