I am 55. I wander the Earth. I now call Portland, OR, my home. There is so much to explore in life. To the mountains, prairies, and high desert. Across the seas and into the depth of the oceans. Outward to the stars. Full of life and peoples.
The problem is that what is happening is largely unprecedented in American history. A federal government willing to commit illegal actions violating people’s constitutional rights, ignore/defy court orders, send military troops into US cities without cause. Hard to imagine what a solution would be.
i think if you post like this without offering concrete steps people can take to prepare for and respond to interference or without any acknowledgement of the success (or lack thereof) of this strategy then you are basically engaged in voter suppression.

This is Trump broadcasting his intentions to subvert the 2026 elections right here. This is impeachable.
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

There was a major international outcry against Boko Haram and actions were widely condemned, the repercussions were nearly instant. Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell remain the only 2 people convicted of sex trafficking young girls. Who were their clients and why have they not been charged?

Worth reading. Very eye opening. ICE and CBP should definitely be abolished.
Thanks to @govpritzker.illinois.gov for setting up the Illinois Accountability Commission to document the abuses of Trump and Stephen Miller's invasions of cities. And thanks to @vermontgmg.bsky.social for this detailed testimony about CBP's history and culture: drive.google.com/file/d/1o4z6...

Also, will DOJ charge ICE agents who disrupted church services with civil rights violations using the FACE Act?
Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

The Greenland War seems like ages ago.
Ronald Lauder is the father-in-law of Trump's fed nominee, Kevin Warsh.
Warsh looks reasonable and well-qualified compared to other options, but not unreasonable to assume that the guy who persuaded Trump to capture Greenland might also promote his son-in-law.

It’s time to place the DOJ under the control of SCOTUS and out of the executive branch. Trump has amply demonstrated the problem with DOJ being controlled by the President. That does not require a Constitutional amendment btw. Just an act of Congress.
Blanche: "My team has certain communications with the White House. Let me just be clear -- they had nothing to do with this review, they had no oversight of this review, they did not tell this department how to do our review, what to look for, what to redact."

Right now, everybody should asking themselves who is next? President Obama perhaps? Because Trump posted multiple times on Truth Social that President Obama should be arrested. This is just the beginning.

Oh you know, Tulsi was visiting a dear friend down the street and saw we were about to do this little raid and decided to tag along. (Her friend didn’t come.)
Q: Can you explain Tulsi Gabbard's role in DOJ activity regarding the Fulton County search?
BLANCHE: She happened to be present in Atlanta. I saw the same photo you did. She doesn't work for the DOJ or FBI.

This. Wearing masks gives them anonymity. Which hides their identity. One of the fundamental problems with social media platforms as well. Anonymity is not safety.
the reason DHS officers wear masks is because it allows them to commit crimes with impunity. there is literally no legitimate reason for it.

I am open for conversations as long as they are respectful and civil. You respond with substantive argument, and I will respond with counter arguments. All good. But if you come into my threads to mock or ridicule me, that’s just an automatic block. Especially if you call me “My dude.”

Funny how local law enforcement wear, their names, badge number, and no masks every single day. But that’s tonight for the feds…🙄
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."
