So, the *COMMENTARY* to words, (if you saw the deleted video) not a direct talk *to* Trump

The social commentary to the video, the commentary, I concurred

Good morning,

Trump is a global disgrace, and causing harm to our republic, and it can’t be ignored

Good morning

They get to stay, but not deploy, it’s temporary…

Is that where it sits?

Perry: The federal government is "temporarily enjoined from ordering the federalization and deployment of the National Guard of the United States within Illinois."

That's it. Thanks again for following.

Dave Byrnes @djbyrnes1.bsky.social · 1d

New: U.S. attorneys moved today to dismiss felony assault charges against Paul Ivery, an intellectually disabled man who was arrested at a protest outside the Broadview ICE facility on Sept. 27.

Ivery agreed to waive his Miranda rights while in federal custody.

The dictator forcing indictments on folks for personal grievances is not what, even at our worst as a *democracy*, this country was founded on
