@heidilifeldman @JonChevreau #ICE is the modernday #Gestapo, no question. Never in my wildest dreams did I think the country where I was born, grew up, and believed in its greatness, would become just another #authoritarian #shithole police state with full-on censorship, roving goon squads scooping people of the street and disappearing them, and so many other horrors.
Shakedown #Politics, Sabotage, Self-Enrichment: How to Talk About #Trump & Musk's Authoritarian Activities

" #Trump & #Musk are not merely creating another #autocracy along the lines of #Hungary or #Turkey, with inspiration from South African #apartheid and the #JimCrow South. They are innovating the #authoritarian playbook with their power-sharing agreement and their chainsaw & wrecking-ball tactics."

#Trump suggests sending #UnitedStates #citizens to a prison in a foreign country known for #HumanRights violations without #DueProcess.
This is no longer a #ConstitutionalCrisis.
The #USA is an established #authoritarian #MafiaState.
…Most of the #intelligence community, including the #CIA & the #NSA, agreed w/that assessment.
Only one agency, the #FBI [#KashPatel], partly dissented. It maintained the gang has a connection to the admin of #Venezuela’s #authoritarian president, Nicolás #Maduro, based on information the other agencies did not find credible.
#Trump doubling (tripling? quadrupling?…) down on #illiberal #authoritarian #StochasticTerrorism toward the #judiciary even going after conservative #SCOTUS Chief Justice #JohnRoberts (see pic).
#Trump and his unchecked actions are proving our point that this is not a nation of #freedom or #justice for the #workingclass. It is a nation of #authoritarian rule in which the #market and #capitalism take presidence over health of society. With all its oppression and exploitation world wide #capitalism is still failing in real time.
The answer is #socialism and #communism in which the workers are empowered to seize the means of production for their benefit and to abolish the ruling class.
So to be clear, Donald Trump ignored a federal judge's orders when he attempted to invoke a wartime act from the 18th century to illegally deport thousands with no due process under the auspices of being gang members (with as little proof as "too much skin art") and therefore "international terrorists", claiming that the Chief Justice has no authority over him, disobeying the court order, and continuing to commit his crimes.
Trump's border czar stated, “We’re not stopping. I don’t care what the judges think — I don’t care what the left thinks. We’re coming.”
The normal route for a law abiding person who doesn't agree with a judge's order would be to follow the order then appeal it, to a higher court if need be. There were plenty of legal options available to him (which I will add, are blocked to those who are less privileged).
The only truth Trump stated was that "no one man has authority", because unlike the Trump administration, no one man in the legal system has the last word. Although Trump's attempt was to make this assertion against Judge Boasberg rather than himself.
Instead, when questioned why Trump disobeyed a court order, he responded by calling for the judge to be impeached, calling Judge Boasberg a "Radical Left Lunatic of a Judge, a troublemaker and agitator", indicating that he was "sadly appointed by Barack Hussein Obama", despite the fact that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court who rebuked him for this blatant disregard of the law, Judge Roberts, is a conservative institutionalist appointed by George W. Bush.
“For more than two centuries,” the chief justice wrote in an issued statement, “it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.”
"This is wartime." "I can tell my enemies by the way they look, and that makes them a terrorist and enemy of the state." "The court of law has no authority over me." "Anybody who disagrees with me is a radical left lunatic."
It's extremely important to note how any challenge to his authoritarian rule is labeled as "the left", by both Trump and his entire administration, as "the radical left" if the challenge is strong enough. Rather than from democratic and legal systems and a constitution which have been enshrined in the nation for centuries.
If anyone from "the left" had any hope that Trump's regime could be tamed or controlled, it was because they believed that his Presidential powers could still be put in check by the laws of the land. Trump is dead set to prove that hope wrong.
This is authoritarian fascism in full display.
@alienghic @hannu_ikonen after the #bolsheviks decided set a stop to the true #communists in #Kronstadt in 1921, there not been anything that resembles of #communism
