ONE MORE STEP: Authoritarianism comes closer
One more step toward authoritarianism. Did you see what was flown off the Agricultural Building in Washington, D.C.? Photos of Trump and Lincoln for the 163rd birthday of the department. This is what dictators do such as Stalin, Saddam Hussein or Castro to mention a few.
We have people being taken off the streets by plain-clothed men. Officers wearing masks and arresting public officials. We need to remember the poem: First They Came by Pastor Martin Niemoller.
