What a surprise! /s

That's how fascism works, slowly, one small step at a time so the majority of the public barely notice the change...they only notice when it's too late - when it actually affects their lives...and that's when the mid-terms arrive.

It'll be too late...not just for free america but also for Europe/UK where trump's foot soldiers, (vance, rubio, and foreign agents such as farage in the uk), are already busying themselves planting the seeds of fascism.

U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee in Washington

Seems pretty basic that should be in the headline

After law school, Nichols was a law clerk to [Nixon and Reagan darling] Judge Laurence Silberman of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit from 1996 to 1997. He then clerked for Justice Clarence Thomas of the U.S. Supreme Court from 1997 to 1998.

Nichols agreed with the Republican Trump administration’s contention that it was too early to block the order because it has yet to be implemented.

The ol’ “easier to ask for forgiveness than permission” law I guess.

he and his entire family would have to show up at the polls in FL. That could be fun....

Agonal breath is right.

Barely wheezing at this point
