Hey. Enough with the weird ass replies people.

Most of you aren’t even making sense, so shut it.

I believe that’s the center. The core of the problem. Agencies like ICE and DHS fight the body cams because they’d have a harder time pretending what they do is legal, and necessary. DHS should be deep in paperwork, but just watch.

Bodycams are about to see a harder deployed β€˜Street team’

Mike Johnson keeps saying there are plenty of instances of random people attacking ICE agents. I can find plenty of examples that show the opposite. Perhaps ICE body cams could provide the evidence he's looking for. Or perhaps it would only show more crimes against humanity.

Indeed. FBI agents have expressed concern, pointing out that ICE, DHS consistently ask them to turn off body cams or not to film them.

Is there ever a good reason why an officer or agent would fight the use of body cams ? It’s undeniable that the agents of the federal government would want that.

'Cancer doesn't care': Patients pushed past divisive politics to lobby Congress Hundreds of volunteer advocates put partisan differences aside and pressed Congress to help people with cancer. The advocacy came just before the stalemate that has shut down the federal government.

We have to.

We need hope, and reassurance. It is hope that is under attack.

In history, the invading army also decimates the land.

ICE is a newer organization. untrained in any way to interact with American civilians.

Next time, if a horrible piece of shit tells you he’s a horrible piece of shit, listen.

That’s the worst of it, honestly.

We’ll all be dead soon anyway. Between a planet saturated with poisonous chemicals, all the things that people like me knew for so long.

I just hope the next DJ plays music

Now look around.

Is America great?(again?)

National debt? Tripled.

Representatives and senators either having pissing contests, ignoring whoever was talking. Wasting time because they could. Because no one listened. But I’m only one. There are many more who have been true to what matters.

I bounced around places like mastodon, Lens, Torum, to name a few.

I was called neurotic, paranoid, told I was gaslighting. Unpatriotic, hyperbolic..

No one listened when I said the First Amendment was in danger. I was called batty, sick.

It has never stopped. Not for a single breath.

I’m just about done with this. I’ve spend the previous 10 years trying to tell people to get ready. For this, exactly.

I was pushed aside. Called a drunk, drug addict, crazy, stupid, out of touch, and so much worse.

In 2018 I started to leave this arena behind. No one seemed to care.

Yikes β€” WP reports Rubio turned over gang informants to El Salvador to get that deal to let Trump send immigrants to their hard labor prison without due process.

A lawless regime.

He is literally telling you he is a god.

How stupid are you?

Does god brag? Does God boast about things that never happened? Is god really as pitiful as this very sick old man? That’s how god *chose* to look? Your god is small.

Trump and MAGA's true driving force is now on full display β€” and it's chilling

This is a direct cause/cost argument. And killing civilians, well that’s the cost of living in a country that once valued small government.

If they tell you they know how it works, make them explain.

I’m ahead of myself though, first you’ll need access to the people you voted for. You can leave a message, get an email that’s sent to any inquiry, or the most likely ? They’ll throw it out unopened.

Ask your Representatives and Senators about the absolutely ridiculous temper tantrums of baby Trump.

EVERYONE.

Tell them that parts of our system have a direct and instant impact on civilians, because people who decide don’t know how any part of the process works.

They aren’t even looking at what the system actually does before canceling it. Which leaves the entire country vulnerable and in a deadly play. If you stop a program without looking, how will you know how to fix it??

Simple format.
Build replacement.
Vote
Destroy and build the new model

There is an actual domestic terrorist organization.

It is called ICE.

There is an actual secret society actively working against the ideals established in the constitution.

It is called Ordo Dei.

They call anyone against them unamerican. They are the real traitors to America.

Agreed, and I’ve been on it since 2016 too.

There isn’t an existing way to govern without authoritarianism. In the US, most of that group moved to the Right.

Now, they’ve had 60 years of pushing propaganda and Fox News brainwash.

It won’t be seen until there is blood in our streets.

Whatever you like. Although there is a character limit in the feed. The feed is exactly the same as any microblog service. Trust me. I’ve used them all. Starting in 2006.

The difference is just that Substack offers more features, but you don’t have to use every option.

As deadline for Trump's colleges compact looms, schools signal dissent Of the original nine schools that received the Trump administration's Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education, the majority have indicated they are not planning on signing.

College Administrators need to stand up here. We cannot let this happen. At some point, we’ll all be tested this way. Kiss Trump’s ass and grovel at his feet.

Or say, β€œNO. I am the Voice of what is real about America.”

Do not last your diplomas become worthless.

You should give SubStack a chance. It’s kind of like social media, with the atmosphere of a coffee house before Starbucks killed then out of spite.

It takes somebody special to choose to be a public servant. Even more special these days, a *faithful* public servant. I don’t know this man personally but I see a guy who understood this:

Doing the job > having the job

And that’s something *you* should honor.

Because Trump is personally invested in it now and US foreign policy is dictated by his fragile ego and self aggrandizement. We don’t operate on what is in our national interest. US foreign policy is based on whether Trump perceives something will benefit or hurt him personally.

Q: How much of our national debt has been paid down by Trump tariff/tax collection?

A: None. Not one cent. You’re an idiot if you believed this was ever about paying down our national debt. The national debt will continue to soar in order to support massive tax breaks for billionaires.
