Like so many of us, I *clearly* remember watching the violent attempt to overthrow democracy, live, in real time & unedited on TV after reading, hearing & seeing months of clear, intentional steps toward that goal on this day.

Seriously.
i find it funny when digital rights activists, particularly in the US, speak out about the problems with US tech and even advocate digital sovereignty now, as if their advocacy and opposition to government and regulation didn’t help usher us toward this terrible reality in the first place

I do not believe in the death penalty for humans.

I do support the death penalty for corporations.

When they murder people, let's dissolve them. Break them up, destroy their technology, nationalize their assets.

I have never seen anything more impotent than the EU right now. The US just invaded a nation for its own financial benefit, murdered dozens, disappeared the de facto leader, claimed governance and the oil - and has openly said Greenland is next, and our leaders are here going "oh well yeah haha"

US policy: presidents breaking the law can be held accountable wherever they are but not those ones, illegal immigrants are to be kidnapped and deported but this one is kidnapped and imported, piracy and naval blockades are good but not that one, international law applies unless we don't want it to.

Stop saying that all Schumer and Jeffries ever do is write strongly worded letters. Bullshit. They're not strongly worded at all.
Imagine being the person brave enough to leak this in the hopes that media attention could stop it and then the media just……buries it.

How are voters meant to understand how serious things are if in lieu of shouting fire AND going into building with hoses, you're simply posting fire safety suggestions on social media?
Not introducing articles of impeachment is a message that Trump hasn't committed impeachable offenses.
Nightmarish. CBS News is now running straight state propaganda. They handed Hegseth all three segments and are now tweeting flattering sound bites.

The US invasion of Venezuela is a clear violation of international law and the UN Charter. Celebrating the capture of Maduro, Donald Trump went further, calling it an “attack on sovereignty” itself.

Countries the world over must work together to rein in the United States before it’s too late.
