They just arrested a judge. The only people who’ve been able to slow this roll.
What do you think happens next…?
The entire Armed Forces and Judicial Branch of the Executive is cronies from the Cabinet and AG down. If they feel like it they’ll mobilize militias to do their work for them.
Citizen cops. Watch out. You may not hate cops now, but you’ll understand what’s been wrong with the whole system real soon. “Good cops” will be placeholders for men favorable to the regime. They will be corrupted.
Bribes will become commonplace in day-to-day business. This will often feel counterproductive. That’s because it is.
Odds are this will play out quietly. Unless the Military does a surprise one, the Democrats aren’t putting forward anything capable of challenging the regime. Sorry AOC and Bernie, I love you but Coachella ain’t gonna cut it.
Build federated networks in your own life. The model applies. Organize horizontally not vertically/hierarchically. Find people making choices and doing things and help them.
Added predictions: the US invades Panama (again). Ukraine drags out. Recession settles in, staved off by markets hungry for short-term gains looted from Latin America, Ukraine, probably both. Probably around September a major bubble pops in the US stock market no matter what the tariff situation ends up being. Things get worse. Edit: Panama invasion may come as a result of this
So Trump is telling ICE to break the law? It looks like Trump is guilty of another crime.
It’s only a crime if you are pursued for it. Until that happens, which it won’t, the law doesn’t matter.
Aren’t police and laws great? They do a wonderful job.
Who’s gonna fuckin stop em??

Susan Collins just called: said he learned his lesson and it won’t happen again.
Fuck that bitch. Was the most laughably idiotic comment she could’ve made.
So far breaking the law hasn’t bit him yet. Why should he start following it now?
It’s not a crime if there’s nobody left to uphold the law.
