The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Trump threatens every country that doesn’t do exactly what he wants with a tariff. No one likes to be threatened or blackmailed. These countries will all start diversifying away from the USA.

Corporate Media: stop citing the Trump Regime. You know they are lying, so by citing them you are just amplifying their lies, willingly collaborating with them against US.

I call on members of Law Enforcement to remember their duty to protect and serve the American People.
Those who know what this administration is really doing and stand up to the tyranny. Those members of the FBI and DOJ that can blow the whistle on the corruption and lies.

There is A LOT of misinformation going around about the continued funding of ICE.
It ISN'T a done deal.
Yes, it passed in the House, but the Senate hasn't taken it up yet.
That's the way this shit works.
CONTACT YOUR SENATOR NOW AND TELL THEM TO VOTE THIS FUNDING DOWN.

A stranger from another country just asked me for a summary of U.S. activist resources & groups that they can copy & paste when they encounter other Americans online in order to help to mobilize resistance.
I’m moved to tears. There are people like this stranger everywhere. We must fight for them.

In a civilised society the military would turn on their despotic leader and remove him from power.
They would defend the constitution and protect the people.
