It is a dangerous situation when supporters of a party with absolute control of all branches of government still feel aggrieved, victimized and marginalized. It can justify all sorts of abuses. I hope this attitude shifts after MAGA takes power, but I’m worried.

But, ironically, the President can launch nuclear weapons without any due process, killing hundreds of millions, maybe billions, of people. No mortal—Democrat or Republican— should be given that sort of unchecked power.

No, you can’t just deport people without legal due process. No, you can’t just fire federal employees without legal due process. No, you can’t just impose across the board tariffs without Congress. If Trump tries, he’ll get SUED — slowing or stopping him entirely.

To re-iterate what should be widely known but isn’t—there are no nuclear checks & balances. The president has sole launch authority. In some scenarios, top officers at Stratcom might not even know the launch order has been sent. It is a true nuclear monarchy, and it is obscene.

@RadioFreeTom I have MAGA keep telling me over and over that there is a nuclear strike authorization chain of command that can hold Trump in check. That he cannot singularly order a nuclear strike. If nothing else, military will refuse to turn key because they'll discern it is an illegal order

…With an impossible-to-calculate ROI bc if it works you never have to use. However, militaries initially built for deterrence (USA post WW2) find adventures (Iraq) when their mission suddenly is over. Plus also opportunity cost of reduced investment in schools, hospitals

“Control immigration” Anne Frank’s father applied for a visa through the American consulate. Had it been granted swiftly, the entire Frank family would have been saved. It’s okay to admit that the world is complicated, folks. Immigration can save innocent lives.

The Netherlands has a Holocaust museum and an Anne Frank House and still manages to host a pogrom because Holocaust education isn't the answer. The answer? Enforce your laws. Control immigration. Stand up for civilization.
