Rest is Rebellion

Amid the chaos of national politics, the power of the local is easy to overlook. But showing up in local organizations, processes, and politics can be a powerful way to change things for the better.

Remember when wearing a tan suit was the biggest presidential scandal? #iceout #scandal #epstein #crypto #crook #felon #rapist #releasethefiles #burnthepatriarchy

Sure. More than 20 years after the first complaints are filed with only 2 convictions. Nope. Not covering up or protecting anyone. Let them all rot.

How does there seem to be absolutely no response from the latest Epstein files drop? What is wrong with this country and how do we fix it? #BurnthePatriarchy

They can all rot in hell. Disgusting, hideous humans. Power protects power. Burn it to the ground.

HOW WE ALL BECOME MINNESOTA: BRITTANY PACKNETT CUNNINGHAM

Definitely worth the listen. Please. open.spotify.com/episode/0OeR...

Take a break? Step down. Impeach. Arrest. Those are the only options for Noem.

“Tragically, two American Citizens have lost their lives as a result of this Democrat ensued chaos,” F47 said.

The administration lying all day was almost the worst part. #Impeach

We ALL know what we saw.

They understand the importance of it.

NO LIES 👇 DETECTED.......

Anyone can buy ICE BP knock off vests on Amazon and put on a gator. They can lock and load, climb into a black SUV and start terrorizing a neighborhood with no repercussion because local law enforcement tell us they can’t require someone who claims to be federal law enforcement to prove it. ENOUGH

What a fucking idiot. This is why we have NATO. This delusional idea that if you need protection you should be owned by your protector is so 1900 imperialist.

The idea that we needed a court to rule on that is ludicrous.

Women Made Up Nearly All The Job Losses Last Month. Here’s Why Men joined the labor market at a rate three times greater than women in 2025. What the latest jobs report means for the workplace.

Not surprising given a federal government doubling down on patriarchy and misogyny. Women are being left behind. Again. www.forbes.com/sites/hollyc...

If you don’t feel an urgency now, you’re a good Nazi and you will never stand up. Get out of my way. #NOICE #ENDICE

10/10
This was not present-day America.
This was Germany in 1933. Before the camps were full. Before the war. Before the word Nazi carried its final meaning.
When people say “don’t call MAGA Nazis,” history replies: if the shoe fits…

9/10
Ordinary people adapt. They avoid certain topics. Stop defending risky friends. Learn when to look away. “Politics isn’t my business,” they say. Life continues, which becomes proof, to them, that nothing fundamental has changed.

8/10
Observers argue endlessly about what’s happening. Some say the leadership is moderating. Others warn it’s getting worse. Many insist it can’t go too far. This is a modern society, they say. There are courts. Laws. Institutions. Traditions. Surely there are limits.

7/10
Teachers are dismissed. Civil servants are replaced. Clergy are warned to stay out of public life. Some comply. Some don’t. Those who don’t begin to disappear. Each step is labeled temporary. Emergency measures always are.

6/10
One day, certain businesses are marked. Not closed by law. Just boycotted. Doctors lose patients. Lawyers lose clients. Shops stand empty. It’s framed as discipline, not discrimination. Just a message. Just for now.

5/10
Newspapers still print every morning, but something shifts. Certain stories disappear. Certain words stop appearing. Editors learn which lines not to cross. Reporters learn that curiosity has consequences. Everything sounds calmer. Flatter. Safer.

4/10
Uniformed men begin arriving at night. Not everywhere. Just enough that everyone hears about it. People are taken without warrants or charges. The phrase used is “protective custody.” It sounds bureaucratic. The bruises don’t.

3/10
Then someone nearby vanishes for a few days. When he comes back, he looks hollowed out. He won’t explain where he’s been. People lower their voices when his name comes up. Someone says, “He must’ve done something wrong.”

2/10
There is violence, but it’s described as controlled. Temporary. Only aimed at “dangerous elements.” Most people don’t see themselves in that category, so they accept the explanation. It’s easy to believe danger is reserved for others.

I should have mentioned, this summary was based on the true story of Nazi germany written by Erik Larson in his book In the Garden of Beasts.

I love that tattoo! It’s beautiful and inspiring. Thanks for sharing! Celebrating your victory!
