- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

This is dangerous for women’s health care. We’ve already seen the consequences in states like TX, but I guess the GOP is intent on The Handmaid’s Tale.

If they treat citizens this way, imagine what they do to immigrants
The wonderful old-Twitter experience of a global group chat during a live event or breaking news is a thing you can't do on Threads bc of its trash algorithms and you can't do on X bc it's a Nazi propaganda weapon, but it's really happening on Bsky now and I hope more holdouts start to discover that

Independents blame Trump and the GOP for the shutdown by a 2:1 margin.
Trump’s approval with people under 30 has completely cratered.
63% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s management of the federal government.

The 1878 Posse Comitatus Act prohibits use of the U.S. military to implement domestic laws unless expressly authorized by the Constitution or Congress. Trump's regime is raising its middle finger to the rule of law!
Organize & non-violently fight back.

It’s only a matter of time before there is a Kent State or far worse episode.
We have a bunch of barely trained hop-heads encourage to unleash violence.
What happens after is anyone’s guess. But none of this should deter us from fighting for democracy and rule of law.
