It’s gonna be like $270 for five nights at the Super 8 plus $50 fee for early check in because I can’t stand and have nowhere to be between 11 AM and 3 PM. $50 cash deposit I do have. $50 in the bank I have. I think I can cover Uber.

So, $0/270 ATM

Protesters: We're being peaceful

Cops or feds and sometimes both at the same time: *do tremendous amounts of violence to those protesters*

The news: Peaceful protest turns violent

The courts: Oh well you can beat those protesters up when that happens, shoot em, gas em, stick em in a stew idc

Also this part isn't great because we all know things like placing your body between a fed or a fed's car and other people or just being near feds absolutely counts as being "obstructive"

It's not civil war. It's an occupation. The difference is notable bc it's not clear SCOTUS will back what Blanche is attempting.
How close is this to a real version of civil war at this point? Blanche is the second most powerful person in the United States Justice Department and he's shitposting on social media threatening a governor and mayor with terrorism charges.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche calls what is happening in Minneapolis an “insurrection” and threatens to go after Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey over their “terrorism.”

People need to stop pretending the U.S. government isn’t actively rebranding as a white supremacist movement.

🚨 The Trump administration has rolled out a coordinated campaign across departments, using imagery and messaging straight from right-wing and white nationalist circles.

This isn’t subtle.

BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally.

Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.
