DHS Hunts Down 67-Year-Old U.S. Citizen Who Criticized Them in Email
The Department of Homeland Security is using a little-known tool to go after its critics.
Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

This is false and you should delete it. I canβt imagine what is to be gained by continuing to cast doubt on a survivorβs testimony, when theyβve already been deemed to be credible. Theyβve been through so much already.
This is why victims donβt come forward. This is how perpetrators walk free.

Much evidence has been presented. The victim has been demonstrated to be credible. Hard evidence of the crimes has been verified.
Meanwhile, there is no evidence that refutes his account. So the balance of evidence is vastly in favor of Sascha.
Crimes have been prosecuted on less.

The evidence of CSAM that Sascha is in has been independently confirmed.
It feels like thereβs an impossibly high bar for what it would take for some people to believe his story. People have been convicted on less evidence than has already been found.
When people doubt victims, abusers win.

It reminds me of how 30 years ago the story of Sally Hemmings finally broke through, and as more and more other stories joined it, the public understanding shifted from "some slaveowners formed romantic relationships with their slaves" to "r*pe was an integral part of the machinery of slavery"

I read this, and I almost regret it. What do you even do with the knowledge that Epstein wanted and was trying to engineer societal breakdown via far right populism bc he thought it would benefit his sex trafficking business?

Abolish ICE.
Thereβs no reforming it.
Thereβs no compromise.
Thereβs only one way to rein in ICEβs terror campaign. Abolish it.

There has to be an investigation into the many individuals who committed heinous crimes alongside Epstein.
There should be a special prosecutor, or a congressional investigation, that looks into the crimes and the ongoing cover-up. It has to happen.

How exactly is believing a credible victim hurting anyone? By urging people to listen to the full extent of the abuse so we can hold those responsible accountable and seek justice for the survivors?
Instead, do you suggest every victim must have airtight documentation before coming forward?

Yes, it is. Snopes has even updated their article to say that they havenβt been able to *confirm* the allegations but that much of the testimony has been corroborated.
Victim testimony is evidence. Just like receipts, phone records, blood samples. Accept it or not.

It verified him as being credible. It verified his story about having been recognized as a victim in a widely circulated CSAM/snuff film.
NOTHING he has said so far has been refuted, while supportive evidence HAS been found. That doesnβt automatically make it true, but it does make it credible.

It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.
