This is what fascism looks like.
This is a demand for unconstitutional, arbitrary power. There is no offense against the United States here. The FBI has no role to assist the State of Texas in becoming an authoritarian enclave.

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.

Exclusive: The White House is preparing to step up pressure against big banks over perceived discrimination against conservatives and crypto companies with an executive order.

The White House has instructed NASA to terminate two major, climate change-focused satellite missions. They've been collecting widely-used data, providing both oil and gas companies and farmers with detailed information about the distribution of carbon dioxide and how it can affect crop health.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "We're here in IL, the land of Lincoln... When he was a state senator in 1840, broke quorum by jumping out of a window in the statehouse. I believe my colleagues and I are participating in a long tradition of standing up to bullies, civil disobedience, of good trouble."
There is one way through and one way only: stand up for your beliefs, fight back in every way conceivable, don’t back down, be loud about your values and make clear to everyone you won’t be bullied. Anything less is to fail to meet the moment and your responsibility as an American and a human.
There's a whole lot of folks in politics and media who low-key believe they can get through this era unscathed if they just keep their head down and don't piss off Trump. And some have multiple degrees earned by reading texts that specifically warned about the foolishness of this strategy. Tragic.
I stand in support of the Texas House Democratic Representatives. They are using the only tool they have to protect the voters of Texas who have overwhelmingly spoken and don’t want politicians gerrymandering our state again.
