Rent, groceries on minds of US military families in Asia Pacific as government shutdown continues Americans with the U.S. military in the Pacific are concerned about how they will afford groceries and rent if the shutdown continues.

One week into a federal government shutdown, U.S. service members, DOD civilian employees and their families in Japan and South Korea were taking stock and asking how much longer, with affording groceries and rent the main concerns.

This is the sh*t we're up against. Absolute proof that the *regime wants to start a civil war* & is doing everything possible to instigate it w/fake photo rep, fake AI, by any means necessary. This tells you the desperation to hold on to powerβ€”& expand it.

Who is going to stop him? In before times, there were checks, balances, & guardrails. Now? Nothing. He owns SCOTUS & ignores other courts. Elected GOP in Congress & states won’t cross him. Executive Branch is wholly his so he controls/ignores all 3 branches.

I know & agree completely as to who the real enemy is - most of the talk we’ve had about splintering has been an intellectual exercise helping us blow off steam. That said, it would no longer surprise me if there is a schism

What are you thinking for the 2-3 countries? I’m in New England & have discussed this with friends off & on since term one. We’ve mostly leaned west coast as one country, the Northeast as another one, & the rest as the third. And ideally the west coast & northeast would work together

On August 27, 2025, Petitioner was arrested at the Carson Car Wash in Carson,
California by uniformed Customs and Border Protection (β€œCBP”) officers and unidentified
plainclothes federal agents. See Pet. ΒΆΒΆ 16, 48; Santiago Decl. ΒΆ 3. During the arrest,
Petitioner sustained severe leg injuries. See Pet. ΒΆ 48; Santiago Decl. ΒΆ 5. He was
handcuffed and transported by CBP to the emergency room at Harbor-UCLA Medical
Center in Carson, California. Id.
At the hospital, Petitioner was admitted under a β€œblackout” procedure for patients
in law-enforcement custody and was registered under the pseudonym β€œHar Maine UNK
Thirteen.” Santiago Decl. ΒΆ 7. Federal agents remained at Petitioner’s bedside during
admission, transfer to non-public treatment areas, and throughout his stay, keeping him
handcuffed to his hospital bed. Id. ΒΆ 6.
On or about August 27, 2025, CBP transferred custody of Petitioner to ICE. See Pet.
ΒΆ 48. He remains detained at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center under the supervision of ICE,
which has contracted with Spectrum Detention Services (β€œSpectrum”) to provide guards.
See Santiago Decl. ΒΆ 8; Pet. ΒΆ 48.
Since that date, two to four uniformed guardsβ€”either Spectrum employees or ICE
agentsβ€”have been continuously stationed in Petitioner’s hospital room, monitoring him at
all times, including while he sleeps, eats, uses the restroom, or receives medical care. See
Santiago Decl. ΒΆΒΆ 9–10.

ICE has been paying private security for 24/7 guards to watch a guy with no record whose leg they fucked up so badly he has been in a hospital for over a month, and we wonder why people were handing Tom Homan bags of cash.

No.

Americans reject this extremist insanity.

Constitutional checks and balances by our co-equal judiciary are not β€œinsurrection”.

Judges exercising their constitutional powers is not β€œterrorism”.

Conservative and Liberal Americans will defend our constitutional order against military rule.

Locals, CPD, press, a few protestors and legal observers remain on scene but the feds are gone. Air is still foul from all the chemicals. One protestor found one of the gas cannisters feds were deploying into the crowd

"The American people are capable of turning the tide against repression even if that feels hopeless...the history of the first red scare teaches us that a better future is possible and worth fighting for."

Broadview Police Chief Thomas Mills said ICE agents are draining the resources of his department and the community by making false 911 calls. He has demanded ICE turn over the names of all federal officers involved in each incident, and said he is ready to take ICE to court.

One reason you can tell the tech industry is not a real business is that a real business would be absolutely thrilled to find out they can keep selling an existing product without putting new money into development.

The inept Trump administration is too stupid to stop creating evidence that can be used to show the court that the indictment of James Comey was not because he was guilty of any crime, but so the vengeful Donald Trump could humiliate him and make him suffer.

People are asking: Why is Trump screwing American farmers so badly when they’re his most loyal voting bloc?

Maybe because it’s a cheap land grab. Run farmers out of business, then he and his billionaire buddies buy up millions of acres for pennies on the dollar.

Are the farmers catching on yet?
