I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files.
Except in the United States.
Here: Zero shame, zero consequences.
We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

The SAVE Act sounds harmless, but it lets politicians kick eligible Americans off the rolls if they can’t dig up passports or birth certificates. Millions of citizens, especially young people and voters of color, could be denied a ballot over paperwork. #sheshed

Remember in November to vote out every member of the US Congress who has not defended the U.S. Constitution this year and indeed since the crimes before, during and after January 6, 2021 . We were warned about #PutinsPuppet & yet a 34X felon was elected as POTUS who then installed a felon’s Cabinet

I'm not one for false optimism. But what I witnessed today in Minneapolis was tremendous, both in scale and exuberance. It was a stunning answer to the federal assault on Minnesota, a show of solidarity that gives us something to hold on to during times that are unforgiving.
“Everybody Showed Up”: Stunning Crowds at Minnesota Day of Strike and Shutdown Against ICE
Extreme cold didn't stop the shutdown on Friday as some 100 faith leaders were arrested, residents stayed home from work, and an estimated 50,000 or more marched through downtown Minneapolis.

Multiple attorneys allege that for some detainees, including at least one U.S. citizen, the DH"SS" is denying their constitutional right to see an attorney.
This is a violation of the 5th and 6th Amendment rights to due process and the right to consult with counsel.

A month after the Epstein files deadline, only a fraction of DOJ records have been released.
Does no one have the power to confront this obstruction of justice or are we to be “ok” with the fact we now are ruled by a dictator.

“Can I go check a pulse?” a bystander said after Good was shot, his hands in the air.
“No! Back up!” an ICE agent told him.
“I’m a physician!”
“I don’t care!” the agent replied, before another came up and said they had their own EMS on the way.

It’s painfully obvious these goons have no idea what they’re doing. And they’ve learned nothing in the past week.
Imagine going to a doctor’s appointment and all hell breaks loose. They cut your seatbelt, and yank you out of your car.
Why is any of this necessary?
