We need to say it and then say it again and then say it again and then say it again. There needs to be a wall of sound about this.

Most of the TV news media is essentially complicit at this point, treating federal troop presence in American cities like just another new story and continuing wall-to-wall coverage of the coronavirus. It should be the other way around.

If you haven’t read anything about Germany in the ‘30s this would be the time to do it. You can start with anything by Tim Snyder.thriftbooks.com/w/on-tyranny…

I’m tired of writing negative words like “immoral” and “unethical,” so I’m moving on now to “obscene” and “heinous.”
While we supposedly don't have enough money to protect workers, children and the sick, hedge fund billionaires who lost out on their risky and reckless bets get trillions in secret bailouts. We must stop Wall Street bailouts and protect working families.nytimes.com/2020/07/23/busin…

YES. A thousand times yes.
It would be unacceptable for U.S. armed forces to be surveilling protests in an American city. I’ve asked the Air Force to explain these flights, including why this plane is circling Portland, what data it is collecting and who approved the mission. theintercept.com/2020/07/23/…

Claiming the social conscience of America, dedicating yourself to the moral repair of America, is the most patriotic thing a person can do - particularly if they’ve been successful. The American dream isn’t that just one person can make it, but that everyone can have a chance to.

The “stimulus package” we need is $2,000 a month for every person as long as the pandemic lasts. You don’t have to be an economist or a politician to figure that out; you just have to be deeply human. #directcashrelief

It’s really important when people deeply entrenched in the Washington establishment say things like this. Hopefully it will begin to break through.
This is a big deal: John Sandweg, the former acting director of Ice general counsel for the DHS, said Trump is using the agency as his own “goon squad.”
