Nancy
I believe in what I was taught in AMERICAN PUBLIC schools. The Constitution rules us, not a king. No one is above the law. We have a first amendment that guarantees me freedom of speech and the press, voting rights, civil rights, and human rights. (h/t YS)

- Reposted by NancyThe danger of “we already knew who/what Trump is, so we don’t need to keep up with the latest outrage,” is that it can obscure the ratcheting steps by which he drops even faintest veneer of democratic practice. In general, each rhetorical escalation marks an IRL increase in state violence. “
- Reposted by NancyI’m not reposting Trump’s latest obscene racism, because it’s widely posted. If you don’t know what it is, look. It’s not news in terms of telling us who he is—if you didn’t know this by now, you’re not going to—but the blunt openness of it is a rhetorically violent escalation, & that is news.
- Reposted by NancyStephen Miller went from doing TV hits 24/7 to the witness protection program. Not that I mind, but it’s pretty obvious someone has figured out that his face, his voice, his words and his deeds disgusts every non-MAGA cultist in America. I’m sure he’ll be back though.

- Reposted by NancyDo you know how many times this administration has threatened me in the last 365 days? Do you know how many of those threats it has carried out? They are using FEAR AND INTIMIDATION to keep us in line, not actual legal force. We shouldn't fall for it.
- Reposted by NancyBecause they constantly make arrest threats, and they haven't been able to successfully charge or hold anyone. You can either run in blind terror or you can realize it's a bluff and call it.
