"Frey described a federal force that is five times [ !!!!! ] as big as the city's 600-officer police force and has "invaded" the city"

This is beyond insane.

"Our video probes how, while previous shutdowns were a byproduct of political gridlock, Trump has seized on the shutdown as an instrument for reengineering the state in Project 2025’s image."

"The Trump administration is using the shutdown to ramp up its commitment to the Project 2025 blueprint for government. Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget in the Trump White House, is one of Project 2025’s architects and tasked with deciding which agencies starve and which are permanently dismantled."

"In Stephen Miller, we see that Maga will not simply end with Trump. We must keep our eyes on him, contest everything he does and says. Because – while this may be hard to fathom – if the US ends up with Miller as its dictator, we are in even deeper trouble than we are with Trump, and it could last a lot longer."

"As Trump grows increasingly incoherent and emotionally labile, Miller grows more and more influential. He is the president’s brain, his discipline. Where Trump has no guiding principles, Miller is a resolute ideologue of white, western supremacy and a tactician of final solutions. Trump is easily lampooned, but Miller is the grimmest of reapers."

Greg Olear reports that he became aware of the horrifying events happening in Chicago on Oct. 2 from an email sent to him the next morning. But:

"When I ran a Google search, I found that no one else seemed to have picked up the story. The big legacy-media outlets were yammering about God knows what, none of it remotely as important as this illegal operation."

"Make no mistake: The ICE Gestapo raid was nothing less than an act of state-sanctioned terror—a loud-and-clear announcement that democracy, as we knew it, was officially over.

And still—still—I didn’t want to believe it.

But it really happened."

"Because who is going to stop him. Even if the Supreme Court does do the right thing in this instance, what’s the enforcement mechanism? Which is another problem we’ve faced continually in the last 10 months, because the Trump regime will say, 'You want to stop us? You and what Army? Because the Army belongs to us.”'
