#Trump #fascists
"'. . . hope none of my Democratic colleagues become American corollaries to Alexander Navalny,' said the congressman Jared Huffman of California, referring to the Russian opposition leader and outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin who survived being poisoned before dying in an Arctic prison.
'[My colleagues in the House] are thinking about legal defenses against a weaponized Department of Justice,' Huffman added. 'They may have to be ready to be arrested and rounded up. They have to have family plans protecting themselves in ways I don’t even like to talk about publicly . . .
I have so many colleagues living under constant violent threats toward them and their families and their staff . . . These are dark times. We all have our eyes wide open.'
On the campaign trail and in social media posts, Trump has invoked the same names over and over again – among them the former Democratic House speaker Nancy Pelosi, the House member and senator-elect Adam Schiff, the special prosecutor Jack Smith, the former Republican congresswoman Liz Cheney and the former FBI director James Comey – and said they should be arrested and prosecuted for treason and other crimes."
