The #Trump regime is using the govt and #DOJ to punish his political enemies. These kinds of tactics are right out of the Dictator's Handbook which all despots use to intimidate and jail active resisters to anti-democratic policies.
My weekly guest appearance on #TheJeffSantosShow cancelled today. Jeff is repeating a previous broadcast with excellent guests broadcaster #EarlIngram & author #HerbBoyd.

#ICYMI My #AprilFoolsDay article for the fabulous Seattle Star. The Star was a major newspaper in Seattle until 1947. It deserves your support and attention. Omar Wiley re-birthed the publication online, featuring talented #Seattle writers, cartoonists and poets.

I've studied so many concentration camps through history that held vulnerable people in just this kind of crowded squalor. You demonize people, you demand more arrests, this is what you get. It already has its own budget and its own momentum, and is on track to go much further, unless we stop it.
Thank you for sharing this.
They do like to support other dictators!
