1. Threats of violence
2. Consolidation of power
3. Forming a police state
4. Jailing opposition
5. Attacking the free press

Today AZ Senate Republicans amended #HCR2060 and made it even more cruel. They added language saying that DACA recipients, also known as Dreamers, can't rely on that as an affirmative defense to the new crime they're proposing, if the DACA program ever goes away.
