A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.
How ICE Already Knows Who Minneapolis Protesters Are

DOGE got our Social Security information and bank account data. Palantir has access to passport, Global Entry, TSA privileges. As in the Hamdmaid’s Tale, the Trump regime can now control every one of us by locking up our bank accounts and revoking access to travel. This is war. None of us are safe.

Jeffrey Epstein's ties to politicians, business titans and other figures
The U.S. Justice Department's release of millions of internal documents related to Jeffrey Epstein has revealed the late financier and sex offender's ties to many prominent people in politics, finance, academia and business - both before and after he pleaded guilty in 2008 to prostitution charges, including soliciting an underage girl. Evidence in multiple legal and criminal cases has also shed light on these connections.

Quote from Trump just minutes ago:
"The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places.... The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting."
In modern history, there's never been a bigger threat to our Constitution and our way of life than and his enablers.

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."
