This is so f*cking scary! This is NOT Russia. This is NOT China. This is the US in 2025.

#AlexAlott was charged with allegedly assaulting a federal officer with an umbrella. Yesterday, she was exonerated because VIDEO disproved the accusation. But Daniel, who attended the trial to support her, was detained the same day that the trial finished.

THIS IS FASCISM. FILM EVERYTHING.

We are arresting people who were innocently jailed 43 years ago, because a prosecutor cheated, and when justice was finally done, they picked him up even before he could see his family.

How sick is your mind if you target people like that? What justification do you have to act like that?

Patrick Vaanhold @vaanhold.bsky.social · 4h

So much for going after the people who are a danger to the country. The man was convicted because the prosecutor cheated, which caused a deportation order? But instead of reversing the order when he was proven innocent, they wanted to look tough and make the numbers. Disgusting people. 🤮

Dan ben je toch werkelijk door en door verrot als land; iemand die je 43(!) jaar totaal onterecht hebt opgesloten (omdat de aanklager bewijs achterover drukte), oppakken nadat hij is vrij gelaten.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

But they get paid unlike people who do stil do their job like air controlllers.

I mean, how does the 7th circuit allow it.

Patrick Vaanhold @vaanhold.bsky.social · 14h

So how do they allow the National Guard to be in another state uninvited?

So "the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals" sort of agreed with Trump that there is some emergency situation in the US?

And who or what will stop this. This all happened in just 8 months! 40 more to go.

Patrick Vaanhold @vaanhold.bsky.social · 17h

Everybody already know this, and Trump and the DOJ will just go along with it. The biggest question will be whether the judge will allow it.

Dat is gevaarlijk, omdat de leugen van Van der Plas échte slachtoffers heeft. De studenten/activisten die worden beticht van intimidatie worden neergezet als een groot gevaar, terwijl ze iets heel normaals doen.

Door hen neer te zetten als intimiderend worden ze buiten het debat geplaatst.

Nadat dit bericht werd gepost deelde Van der Plas mee dat ze voor haar veiligheid niet meer deel zou nemen.

Haar partij noemde dit 'ondermijning van de rechtsstaat en de democratie', en dat idee werd gretig overgetikt door verschillende media, waaronder de NOS.

En dat is zeer kwalijk.

Snap ik, maar noemt u mij nou eens één project van die omvang, dat niet veel duurder uitvalt dan gepland. De lengte/duur van het project is daar natuurlijk debet aan omdat er in zo'n tijd enorm veel kan gebeuren.

What is it with these guys that they are lying as they breath?

Patrick Vaanhold @vaanhold.bsky.social · 1d

Not with a congress and SCOTUS like this. And they will do anything in their power to keep it this way.

Patrick Vaanhold @vaanhold.bsky.social · 1d

Ik hou niet van dreiging. Maar ik denk ook dat Wilders het niet heel erg slecht uit vindt komen. Hij hoeft nu nergens verantwoordelijkheid af te leggen voor zijn daden.
