Trump wants to deploy American troops into Mexico to create the authoritarian’s crisis feedback loop: War abroad — and the inevitable retaliatory attacks within US borders that will follow — will be used to “justify” civil rights erosions and state violence against civilians at home.

The threat of Trump using ICE to intimidate voters and the military to seize ballots has rightfully received a lot of attention. But we need to prepare to stop the unlawful militias too. They’ll be waiting excitedly for Trump to call on them, just as he did leading up to Jan 6.

@ KevinHincksCS : "The federal government is down 348,000 jobs. That's an 11.5% cut in the federal workforce. Despite that, jobs are gaining. It's ALL PRIVATE SECTOR. It's quite amazing, actually." The federal government is the smallest it's been since 1966. TRUMP EFFECT! 🔥 ht RapidResponse47
