New #Trump Order Among ‘Scariest Things I’ve Seen in US Politics,’ #CivilRights Attorney Says

The new order, he says, would essentially allow “random #fascist #vigilantes” to “sign up to be a #Brownshirt” for Trump’s militarized occupation forces.

"An executive order signed Monday by US President Donald Trump may permit 'random #FascistVigilantes' to help him #crackdown on protests across the country, according to one prominent civil rights lawyer.

"The new order, which comes amid wider concern about Trump’s #militarized takeover of #WashingtonDC, directs Secretary of Defense #PeteHegseth to ensure that each state’s #NationalGuard is equipped to 'assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety.'

Whose brilliant idea was it for #Trump to go to a restaurant in occupied #WashingtonDC??? These people really are delusional.

Ordinary people with phone cameras, first aid kits, and some courage are patrolling the streets of #WashingtonDC at night and fucking life up for #ICE. No special skills or equipment needed, just the spine to resist.

Yes, it makes a big difference in ways the article discusses in full. We are fighting cowardly morons. Ordinary people just have to stand up-- we are stronger, and we are the great majority of the country.

A bunch of veterans ran off #ICE at Union Station, and then educated the #NationalGuard about their right and duty to refuse illegal orders. Now there is also no National Guard presence at the station. These #veterans say they will continue their sit ins across the city until all federal forces are out of #WashingtonDC.

This was posted on Facebook by the owner of the boardgame shop where @V and I met and have spent many of our happiest times. As a fourth-generation Washingtonian who grew up listening to their relatives' stories of the Klan's march on Washington, the Bonus Army, the King assassination riots, and the "Murder Capital USA" era, I know #WashingtonDC has survived much worse than this, and I know it deserves so much better. #FreeDC

Every Sunday in the summer, at Freedom Plaza, there’s the twilight Milonga a la Libertad, filled with people dancing tango in the open air. It’s free to participate, and tourists often stop to watch a bit.
