"There is no database tracking when ICE agents use force against women. But a growing number of videos captured throughout the first year of the second Trump administration offer some insight into the violent encounters that women have experienced: broken car windows, yanking, shoving, pepper-spraying and shootings, all of them out in the open and available on social media."

"And yet something is happening. Trump’s blatant abuse of power really does seem to be radicalizing moderates and causing Trumpers to experience cognitive dissonance (a mental collision of diametric beliefs). I haven’t seen Republicans this anxious since a mob sacked and looted the Capitol."

Good luck with the project of trying to talk sense to the cultic true believers. And I say that sincerely, even as I'm dubious.

John Stoehr interviews former MAGA Rich Logis, who has founded a group to try to help MAGA folks to come to their senses. Stoehr writes,

"Trump can send his paramilitary (ICE, CBP) to execute frightened widowed mothers but still expect at least 33 percent of the population to back him. (The most recent Gallup survey that I have seen shows his approval rating to be 36 percent.)"

"This immigration-hating regime is even rounding up native people, whose ancestors lived on this continent long before Europeans came and killed 95% of the indigenous population while gobbling up the land from coast to coast. …

When we say 'This is Not America,' that is a lie."

“'Abolish ICE' is no longer just a far-left slogan. God knows why Americans reelected Trump — but they clearly didn’t envision masked goons knocking down doors and disappearing people."

"Let’s go for the gold and disband the Department of Homeland Security. Spread its functions around the rest of the federal law-enforcement apparatus. And put Kristi Noem out of work. ...

The DHS is an extraneous agency, born out of tragedy and political opportunism."

"Trump and his enablers have made a grievous miscalculation about the level of support for their dictatorial tactics. A strong majority of Americans oppose what ICE is doing and how it is conducting its operations."

"Trump’s ability to bend reality to his will is the foundation of his political success. It’s how he has survived so many moments that would have ended other politicians’ careers.

But it is not working this time.

In what may be the most high-profile failure of the Trump media machine, the American people are not falling for Trump’s lies [about Renee Good's murder].'

"Ultimately it comes down to the Republican Party, the MAGA base they’ve radicalized, right wing media, and the oligarchs financing it all. They are the real problem. If Trump disappeared tomorrow, they’d be looking for someone else to carry out their fascist agenda."

"Yeah, no, no, I'm not down with you grabbing the guy who works with me at the restaurant and out of the kitchen and dragging him out or dragging him out of Home Depot. I think they've been surprised at the pushback they're getting from people they presume should be with them should be also fearful of Somali immigrants and fearful of brown people. And they're like, yeah, no, I'm not down with it."

"When ICE is on the rampage, crowds of brave Americans, summoned by texts and whistles, quickly gather to stand against the masked men with guns. As the outrage grows, people of common decency — like the federal prosecutors in Minnesota who chose to resign rather than pervert justice by going after Renee Nicole Good’s wife — are taking a stand.

So what’s happening now is both horrifying and inspiring."

"The assault on freedom and civil liberties is open, lurid, and impossible to deny. While our institutions and our elites have failed us, ordinary Americans are rising to the occasion. If Minneapolis is a laboratory of democratic destruction, it has also become a laboratory of civil resistance — organized civil resistance, of a kind we haven’t seen since the civil rights movement."
