Itโ€™s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

The American people are asking themselves why every member of Congress is ignoring the executive branch solidifying power to become a dictatorship while the American Gestapo beats and abducts people without due process.

While the military is being sent to occupy yet another US city.

Journalists at 3 Newspapers Quit Over Edits to a Charlie Kirk Story

*A Republican lawmaker objected to reference to Charlie Kirk holding โ€œoften racist and controversial viewsโ€ in local Alaska news
*The corporate owner took down the story and edited it
*The journalists resigned

This feels like more and more of our media now.

Itโ€™s true that sometimes the law holds back Trump and affords us some semblance of safety.

But the more we lean into the law as our shield, the more powerful it will become as a sword when Trump changes it in his favor and wields it against us.

Only mass antifascism, legal or not, can save us.

This is where we are.

This man is a professor. Who has written a book. About antifascism. Heโ€™s just one of many in this situation; and his situation is just one amongst a sea of varied horrors that MAGA fascism is unleashing on society.

But this is where we are. Donโ€™t look away.

Iโ€™ve received multiple death threats + doxing (including my home address) directly following harassment from Turning Point USA, Jack Posobiec, Andy NGO, + Fox News which called me an antifa โ€˜financier.โ€™

I have been forced to move my classes online.

The more America sees and hears from Stephen Miller, the worse it is for Trump and MAGA.

He's a total freak and loser, repulsive to the majority, and he's the shadow President and currently the most powerful, unelected person in the country.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whateverโ€™s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

USA couldโ€™ve boomed like Singapore had it declared itself a multi-racial nation and embraced it. It took less than 30 years (1989 Ethnic Integration Policy) for Singapore to achieve balance.
This has led to housing prices staying low- especially affordable (rent capped at 15% of income).

House Republicans think protecting the healthcare of everyday Americans is less important than their vacation.

We strongly disagree.

This will not end until voters boot out MAGA lawmakers who refuse to rein in Trump. We will not be safe from a dictatorial presidency as long as the SCt refuses to check executive overreach.

House of South Carolina Judge Criticized by Trump Administration Set Ablaze Authorities are investigating a fire at the home of a South Carolina judge who had reportedly received death threats in what could be the latest incident of political violence across the country.

So we donโ€™t know if Trump or one of his loon goon squad blew up the judges house, but we kinda suspect this may be the case.
With all the evil shit coming from this admin, why would we even doubt for a minute that heโ€™s capable of a mob style hit?
Remember Jan 6th? People died then too.
