They can and will go after those assembling all over the country protesting the scorched-earth campaign to turn this country into Russia compliments of the ersatz president, Elon Musk, and his illegitimate Putin puppet pretending to be president.

They can and will go after educators standing up for LGBTQ+ students.

They are already going after members of the LGBTQ+ community.

They can and will go after teachers accused of teaching a "woke agenda".

They can and will go after members of the media who refuse to bend the knee to propaganda. This already started in a big way two weeks ago.

They can and will go after those not sufficiently "Christian" or "American".

Again, quoting Joyce Vance:

If we are willing to turn a blind eye when other people are at risk, we lose. If we cede our democracy to the Trump administration out of fear--fear that what they are doing to other people, they might do it to us--we lose. There is no reason to believe they will stop; they will be emboldened. For people who believe they have the ability to sit it out without being affected personally, just how much are they willing to watch happen to others while they continue on with their own lives? Freedom is worth the hard work it's going to take to keep it. We have to all pull together. This is one of those moments.

"Then they came for me"--and there was no one left to speak for me."
