I will do everything in my power to make my fellow Americans see this. We think “It Cannot Happen Here” because we have a REALLY flawed historical understanding of how autocracy happens. It CAN happen here. In fact, it already is.

Important thread. Please take a few moments and read. And think.

Hell yes.

There are lots of distractions, but focus on what matters. “The government’s chief human resources agency issued a new rule on Thursday making it harder to fire thousands of federal employees…”

Wish I could have attended this at my alma mater. 'Can It Happen Here? Did It Happen Here? A Debate about Fascism”

The answer is yes. It can and it is. uchv.princeton.edu/events/can-it-…

I feel far more confident about Biden’s chances than I have in months but far less confident about the health of some of our most important institutions than I have in years. The fact that the media is behaving like this is a normal election… It’s a travesty.

This is the future Republicans want–a future with higher healthcare costs, no retirement benefits, and restricted access to reproductive rights.

I am running for Congress to stop them. huffpost.com/entry/rsc-budg…

Unfortunately, Trump isn’t really isolationist. He’s pro-authoritarian. You think he’d want to withdraw from NATO if he weren’t pro-Putin?

Perhaps the most famous example of certain businesses benefiting from dictatorship is from the Third Reich. 'A new book, Nazi Billionaires, investigates how Germany’s richest business dynasties made fortunes by aiding and abetting Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich...' 5/

Tapper looks exhausted. Everyone is exhausted. But this isn’t acceptable. You can’t let these bad actors push out misinformation to hundreds of thousands of people.

Daniel Miller Honestly, establishment Republicans like Chris Sununu are the weak link in our democracy right now. They know better but lack moral character.

This is an ESSENTIAL read w/ many important voices. I do think it's missing a key point, however. Most in corporate America are in denial, but I think some people know exactly what a Trump 2.0 could bring and think they can BENEFIT and PROFIT from it. 1/🧵

Civil servants deliver our mail, keep our water safe & air clean, and advance public health.

Far-right extremists don’t value this work and want to replace civil servants with partisan loyalists. That’s why it’s important President Biden announced new safeguards: apnews.com/article/federa…

You don't think there are corporations that benefit from dictatorship?
You don't think there would be a new breed of oligarchs that benefit from fascism?
You don't think there are incredibly smart and soulless people who will see ANY political future as an opportunity? 2/

To repeat, a Trump 2.0 would be massively destabilizing to the American and world economy. But there are people who know what such a regime would bring and probably think they can benefit from its corruption. History indicates they might be right. 7/7

This is one of the many reasons why I love Nicolle Wallace
