William Lindsey :toad:<p>Trump "intends to send those he hates to foreign prisons beyond the reach of U.S. law. He does not care — he will not even seek to discover — if those he sends into these foreign hells are guilty of what he claims. Because this is not about their guilt — it is about his power."</p><p>~ Ezra Klein</p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/DOGE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DOGE</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/tariffs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tariffs</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/AbregoGarcia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbregoGarcia</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/power" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>power</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>authoritarianism</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <br>/6</p><p><a href="https://view.newsletters.cnn.com/messages/17449825320140797757c9a82/raw" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">view.newsletters.cnn.com/messa</span><span class="invisible">ges/17449825320140797757c9a82/raw</span></a></p>
William Lindsey :toad:<p>And the puffed-up pomposity of Trump and his pretend-macho bully men is, as Myra Adams reminds us today, mirrored by his female disciples, his "MAGA mean girls" like Pam Bondi and Karoline Leavitt, who "have been 'liberating' America from its Constitution every day since Jan. 20."</p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/power" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>power</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>authoritarianism</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/masculinity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>masculinity</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gender</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/PamBondi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PamBondi</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/KarolineLeavitt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KarolineLeavitt</span></a><br>/5</p><p><a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/5254962-maga-mean-girls-are-trumps-loyal-foot-soldiers/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">thehill.com/opinion/campaign/5</span><span class="invisible">254962-maga-mean-girls-are-trumps-loyal-foot-soldiers/</span></a></p>
