It took civilization thousands of years to build the global and broadly successful #economy that we enjoyed right up until about 4PM EDT today.

It took about 2.5 months to destroy it.

So congratulations #Republicans on bringing forth the largest (and perhaps most #regressive) #tax increase in the nation’s history. America’s #billionaires thank you for your support.

Under #fascism , opposition is #terrorism.

This happened to an attractive young white woman traveling on a valid Canadian passport. Imagine what they do to impoverished and terrified brown people arriving with their families at the #border with only their stories of #torture, persecution, and loss.

Canadian woman #incarcerated entering the country to go to a professional conference, despite holding all the appropriate paperwork.

And she's still there, eleven days later, in horrible conditions this country usually only reserves for the poor, the Black, and the brown.

The only upside here is that the improper #arrest of an attractive young white Canadian woman for imaginary #immigration violations might start to open some people's eyes.

[Edit: typos]

If you're a senior career manager in the #federal #government, and you receive an "order" from Elno cutting your funding or requiring you to fire people, it seems to me that you have two options:

1. Comply

The upside of compliance is that you may get to keep your job very slightly longer (don't worry, they'll get to you eventually). The downside is you're destroying the very agency you've spent your career building. And (take my word for it) laying off your colleagues is no fun. Also: everybody will hate you.

1. #Resist

The downside of #resistance is that you'll probably get fired. On the other hand, you'll be able to look yourself in the mirror, and you will have refused to follow an illegal order, as simple ethics and morality demand. Plus you'll have a hell of a wrongful termination suit.

Either way you're eventually out of a job. Why not do the right thing now, when you can make a difference? #Democracy is depending on you.
