    Omar gets it. This will escalate and escalate and escalate… This is the fascist playbook happening before our very eyes.

    There is no good outcome to this situation, and it will affect the entire country before the midterms.

    Arm yourselves. Now.

    Armed goons breaking in doors. No warrants

    Murdering observers and calling them terrorists

    Disappearing people including Us citizens

    Attacking schools.

    WE ARE ALREADY IN MARTIAL LAW

      If they’re just breaking down doors on anonymous tip, how long till people start ambushing them? They know they don’t have the data to back up a warrant, so they clearly aren’t putting much time checking where they’re invading.

    But if there’s not enough agitation they’ll keep provoking…

    It’s like telling a kid “the bully just wants a reaction” ignoring that the bully isn’t just calling names, he’s causing serious and permanent harm.

    They’re breaking into random houses with no warrants, murdering people on the streets, not allowing local law enforcement to investigate anything ICE does…

    What the fuck is the endgame to “don’t react” besides “they do anything they want”?

    Right now in 2026, who is going to reign in trump so the people don’t have to?

      She’s not saying “don’t react”, she’s saying “this is the only explanation for this behavior”.

      She’s not saying “don’t give the bully ammo”, she’s saying “this is bullying behavior”

      Just in case you need it for a crossword puzzle or something later:

      With a g, it means to rule as a king.

      Trump reigns right now.

      Without a g it’s the control straps for a horse, or using said controls.

      Congress ought to rein him in.

        Maybe they meant “who’s going to rule over Trump?” and to that I say: the people, when they finally wake up.
