Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Short-sighted and harmful to all of our futures. A backward-looking non-plan, continuing a polluting past. No strategy for the future of these small towns that aren't self-sufficient. Just kicking the can down the misinformed road.
But unsurprising from this lot.

this is an absolutely insane news conference for the Attorney General of the United States to be participating in.

(note how Benny Johnson describes the Annunciation shooting as an act of political violence, which is a lie)

So greasy fascist lunatic Peter Thiel thinks Greta Thunberg may be the Antichrist?

Guess whose name appears in the Epstein Files that have been released, Peter? No hers. Yours!

So that, technically, makes you more evil than the Antichrist.

[Excerpt:] Tech billionaire Peter Thiel recently warned that Swedish activist Greta Thunberg & critics of tech or AI are “legionnaires of the Antichrist” in private lectures on Christianity that linked government oversight of Silicon Valley to an apocalyptic future.

Inside billionaire Peter Thiel’s private lectures: Warnings of ‘the Antichrist’ and U.S. destruction

In leaked recordings of private lectures by tech billionaire Peter Thiel he argued that “the Antichrist” is likely to take the form of a critic of technology.

Three cheers for MIT. When the White House tried to buy obedience with funding strings...MIT said, “Hell No!” Merit over mandates. Freedom over control. Finally...an institution with the guts to tell power where to shove its politics.

A restraining order was issued YESTERDAY by a federal judge barring detention of journalists in this district unless they refuse to reposition themselves and are given adequate time to do so, or there’s probable cause they’ve committed a crime.

I made a horrible decision last night and told chat that I’d do a 24-hr livestream if we raise $100k with these streams by the 19th.

So if that’s an incentive to tune in… there you go.

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”
