#TrumpIndicted on federal charges!!It’s significant that Trump, who’s always declared himself above the law & transformed the GOP & its base into a party of fascist lawlessness & violence– culminating in the Jan 6 coup attempt – faces serious charges & multiple investigations 1/7
The joy at the prospect of seeing this fascist criminal face any accountability, for anything & the hunger to see him behind bars is righteous. It reflects an enormous reservoir of popular sentiment that could be turned into necessary action to change history #TrumpIndictment 2/7
But we must not pin our hopes on a mechanism that cannot and will not address the reasons we so badly want to see Trump locked up.
Now is a time for vigilance, not complacency. #TrumpIndictment 3/7
This fascist mvmnt has barely been named in the media, much less repudiated by a mass mvmnt of millions standing up against it. It is a vicious 21st century🇺🇸 fascism – in the most powerful & dangerous nation in the🌎 that’s been normalized & accommodated for over 7 yrs now. 4/7
Every crisis Trump & his fascist party gets through strengthens the U.S. fascist movement, leaving a core of battle-tested and even more dangerous, genocidal, revanchist lunatics in power to set the terms for all of society. #TrumpIndictment 5/7
We must not be lulled into submission by this or future indictments and prosecutions of Trump. Whether or not Trump is able to remain the GOP presidential candidate, this indictment cannot and will not stop this fascist movement. That is up to us. 6/7
It’s critical right now to spread the understanding of this fascist movement to the millions who righteously want to see Trump behind bars, & to actively oppose this fascism in every sphere of life.
Stay vigilant. In the name of humanity, refuse to accept a fascist America. 7/7

Make no mistake. The Oklahoma #abortion ban is a Christian fascist bridge between #SB8 in Texas & the expected overturning of Roe v. Wade later this spring. This is not just any abortion ban. A thread.

vox.com/policy-and-pol…
Besides its extreme viciousness, this ban closes off one avenue of relief for women in Texas, who have fled the state to seek abortions in neighboring states. Think about how the Fugitive Slave Act attacked the means of enslaved people to reach safety.
These #SB8 copycat laws, each state trying to outdo the other in its violent subjugation of women, are designed to do no less. And these Christian fascists will not stop. They will figure out every workaround & criminalize them even more viciously.

🧵 One year ago, we saw Donald Trump call forth and unleash fascist mobs to storm the U.S. Capitol. This was a violent coup attempt – the culmination of a rolling coup Trump had been announcing and carrying out for months.
While it failed in the immediate sense…1/
#January6th became a dress rehearsal & rallying cry to further harden a now battle-tested fascist movement and Republi-fascist party. 2/
This vicious coup attempt morphed into a comprehensive strategy of election subversion & voter suppression, while Trump’s loyal mobs, to this day, continue to storm the public square with threats of violence and terror. 3/

THREAD on why we must PROTEST Federal Crackdown on Portland!
NO MORE POLICE MURDER of BLACK PEOPLE
NO FASCIST POLICE STATE
NO FASCIST MILITARY WAR on the PEOPLE
NO FEDERAL AGENTS SWEEPING up PROTESTERS
TRUMP/PENCE OUT NOW! #PortlandKidnappings #TrumpPenceOutNow 1/ 14
This week, in an ominous escalation of fascism, the Trump/Pence regime sent federal troops from multiple agencies to storm the streets of Portland, Oregon and crush ongoing protests. #PortlandKidnappings 2/14
Dressed in camouflage with no identifying insignia, agents rolled up in unmarked vans, arrested people without telling them where they were going or why they were being taken into custody, deployed tear gas & shot 1 non-violent protester in the face.#PortlandKidnappings 3/14

Y’all wanna refuse to accept a fascist America? Here’s a thread from our new Statement of Conscience. #TrumpPenceOutNow #OutNow
Silent No More, We Say:
The hour is late. For over three years, the Trump/Pence regime has brought an unrelenting barrage of insult, injury, and atrocity, with catastrophic consequences for all humanity. #TrumpPenceOutNow
There are times in history when a people must reach deep into their collective conscience and act with unprecedented moral courage to stop the crimes of their government.

It’s not “craziness” when Trump talks about an upcoming Civil War. It’s fascism. Past time to take him seriously: almost 3 years of evidence from concentration camps along the border to a Muslim ban to an emboldened & deadly white supremacist movement. (THREAD). #CivilWar2
This Regime makes a mockery of truth, they are foreclosing the right to dissent, and they trample over the rule of law. They have been relentless — and they aim for a full clampdown. Trump and Pence will not give up and neither will the millions who support the fascist program.
The fascists have their people in the courts and even if the courts should rule against them, they may well defy the courts. And if Trump IS able to stay, he will almost certainly not only take revenge but try to make a further huge leap toward all-out fascism. #CivilWar2

Arpaio was convicted of violating constitutional rights in defiance of a court order re: racial profiling. A pardon means that's OK. #thread
Convicted for willfully disobeying the law after a court ordered him to stop singling out drivers based on ethnicity &detaining w/o charges,
he is actually guilty of decades of torture & brutality. Prisons run like concentration camps. theguardian.com/cities/2017/au… #ArpaioPardon
