This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.
America is on the brink of martial law.
Do not be silent.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.
America is on the brink of martial law.
Do not be silent.
Things to consider:
Document the violence & violations--on camera, w/photos, saving images--any way you can. Speaking as a historian- it will matter
Point out violations--w/images & text--even if you think it won't matter. It will. It needs to be called out & exposed
You are a witness.
Expose it.
She does!

But if his unelected aides are manipulating him to get their own authoritarian policies in place, that's sort of a bigger deal.

Document it!
Authoritarian theater

Meanwhile, his DOJ is disbanding a task force that took on cartels.
Trump doesn't care about stopping drug trafficking — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.
This is a power grab.
TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:
This statement is a clear example of what is known as “State Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.
I can’t get over this. Trump bailed out Argentina farmers with $20 billion of our tax dollars, then China turned around and bought soybeans from them instead of US farmers.
Not AMERICA FIRST, America got played.
“Untethered to the facts” is putting it nicely…

Last I checked, Congress makes the laws, not the White House.

Any account on TikTok asking for money is NOT ME.
Someone is posting the audio from our Saturday morning conversations, and pretending to be us.
I used to have an account -- but I don't think it exists anymore. I don't think I've ever used it.

Please report it.
Yup. That's it.

I do not have an account on TikTok under this name.

All I can say is that the account "joannebfreeman" isn't me. I don't have a TikTok account.
I just used this:

Yup.

PLEASE report these fuckers.
How dare they steal something public-minded to steal people’s money.
Hey -- folks:
If any of you are on TikTok, there's someone pretending to be me using "joannebfreeman" -- and supposedly, even asking for money.
IT'S NOT ME.
I've just reported them.
Please do the same.
