"Kirk’s violent rhetoric helped shape this world, and yet, it has been deemed “civil” by those on both sides of the political divide. This is the mark of a sick society, one that is perfectly fine with an unconscionable body count as long as none of the disfigured, barely recognizable faces are ones we know from a screen."

Trump is taking decisive steps to crush administrative safeguards and preempt legal challenges,
allowing his administration to rapidly consolidate a surveillance state with diminished privacy rights.
Aided by recent Supreme Court decisions, Republican lawmakers, and quickly eroding due process rights,
the administration is ensuring that the data and sensitive information of each person in the U.S. can be used against them.
