This story is horrific. These agencies are filled with gleeful fascists who understand that they’re operating with almost total impunity.
Wouldn’t surprise me to learn that they didn’t even have a judicial warrant.

I have further expanded the https://www.maga-collaborators.net website.
It now tracks #colleges and #universities in addition to #law firms and other #corporations that are #collaborating, #capitulating, or #resisting the #Trump #regime.
Please share this link to help spread the word! I'll be adding to and upgrading this website regularly moving forward.
And please send tips to help fill in the gaps in the data to the email address listed on the website.
You're kidding right? Her work on cells and aging is a threat to US security? I guess that's true if it means longer lives for the fascists in charge.
"Immigration and Customs Enforcement has twice refused her lawyer’s petition for parole, contending that she is a flight risk and a threat to U.S. security."

Somewhere Barbara Streisand can heave a huge sigh of relief. It will henceforth be known as "the Vance effect."
RFK Jr saying the quiet part out loud…
In an article about autism, he talks about how autistic people will never pay taxes, hold a job, go on a date etc. “worthless”. Useless eaters.
This is straight up eugenics.
It’s also wrong. Many people with autism or disabilities can do ALL these things, but our worth should not be predicated on that.
Everyone has intrinsic value regardless of economic ability or contribution.

Dr Oz says being healthy is a patriotic duty
Worse, he says they spend 70% of Medicare & Medicaid funds on chronic illness & aren’t “getting their money’s worth”
This is the quiet part said out loud.
They don’t want to cure chronic illness, they want us to take the blame.
They don’t want to pay.
They aren’t even being subtle anymore. They’re making lists of people with autism. They deride those who can’t work or serve in the military.
“Wise decisions” would be universal healthcare. Universal basic income. Addressing poverty, food deserts and income inequality.
This isn’t “wise decisions”, it’s eugenics.

We are not sliding into or headed toward authoritarianism.

The Trump regime continues to double down on their eugenicist choices, nominating Casey Means, a wellness influencer, for surgeon general.
I’ve said for a long time that “wellness” is eugenics adjacent.
While there’s nothing wrong with a healthy lifestyle, no amount of green juice, yoga, meditation or sunlight can cure disabilities.
What’s worse, wellness “influencers” almost always blame the chronically ill for not trying hard enough.
Between Means, Prasad, RFK Jr and Dr Oz, things look bleak for those with disabilities (but great for anyone hawking supplements!)

"What Donald Trump did on Friday should make the hair on the back of your neck stand on end. Trump literally fabricated evidence in an effort to keep Abrego Garcia in a prison in El Salvador. You must understand that Trump would do that very thing to imprison anyone he wants to 'disappear' --including you or your family."

Looks like some white hat-hacking going on (or black-hat hacking for good) 👀
"Hackers targeted another app used by Trump officials and also stole passenger lists from an airline used to deport migrants."
REMINDER:
if a white person is using #woke to insult another white person; given that the word is from African American vernacular and it’s related to activism, just substitute the word for N*-lover.
as Toni Morrison liked to remind us, there is no #fascism without #racism.

Under the watchful eye of the fascist anti-vaxx regime, covid boosters are going to be restricted to those 65 and over or with “preconditions”.
Everyone needs the right to access Covid vaccines.
It’s not over. It’s still killing and disabling. And the vaccines are an important tool to keep folks out of hospital.
There’s three days left to have your say!
These folk respond to force & mass public outcry, so make your voice heard!

"For those of us who remain horrified by its actions, the White House is hoping we ultimately treat it like we now do mass shootings. That is to say, the administration hopes it becomes so commonplace that we hear about it, shake our heads in resigned hopelessness, and begin to accept it as inevitable."

It may be small & petty, but these changes are part of the erosion of democratic norms, softening people up for potentially more #authoritarian behavior.

ICE shot a journalist in the leg. A journalist.
They’re shooting people who are there to cover the protests as an essential part of the freedom of the press and the right to free speech.
It was apparently a non-lethal round, yet emergency surgery is required.
This regime has already silenced so many journalists.
Kicked them out of the Oval Office and filled it with “friendlies” (ie propagandists).
These are dark times:

there is a reason #fascism tracks all too well with all disordered behaviours of the Dark Tetrad. fascists ―like narcissists, sociopaths, machiavellians and sadists― do not care for shame. on the contrary, they are very aware of their evil doings and enjoy the fact WE know.
short of killing them, the most effective way to neutralize them is to destroy their power bases. IOW it’s the money, stupid.
