This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

A New Hampshire real estate attorney and American citizen returning home from Canada says he was detained at the border without an explanation and "treated like a criminal."

Headline: ICE came for their neighbor so these Tennesseans formed a human chain to protect him

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

Jesus, this testimony from Tiffany Flick, who has since resigned from her position at SSA, about what happened when DOGE arrived, is hard to read. But everybody should read it. Because this is the reality of what’s happening.

UPDATE: The charges against her have been dropped “in the interest of justice” (she bit one of the brownshirts that assaulted her) and the private security firm has lost their license to operate. I hope she sues them into oblivion.

U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention?

Every day, I give up

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

The American flag at full mast with the word #RESIST underneath which means don't comply in advance and stand in the way of those who would subvert what the flag represents. We do not kneel to a would be king.

Do not comply in advance. Stand in the way of those who would subvert what the flag represents.
We do not kneel to a would-be king.
Be the friction that slows their progress.

We've reached the first inevitable crossroads.
The question, which is clearly answered in the Constitution, is: "Does the executive branch have to obey the judicial?"
What happens if the executive branch says "my ball, my rules"?
Stay tuned.

Congress is who creates these agencies and only congress can defund or disband them.

This will never stand in court.
