They want to scare people into not showing up.
Show up. Exercise your Constitutional rights. Be in community with all those who believe in democracy.
I know everything is getting worse and Trump is trying to dismantle America, but all of this is a sign of a very weak, desperate Presidency that realizes it's unpopular and has lost the majority.
The economy sucks, the Epstein Files aren't released, and people didn't vote for a MAGA dictatorship.
"A war from within" ????
The President of the United States is openly talking about waging war against US cities because he doesn't like their mayors and governors.
This is how a dictator talks.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Some of the most powerful corporations in America have sided with an authoritarian regime in order to protect their short term profits — the fundamental rights of everyone else be damned.
Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.
