Let’s survive this 1000-alarm fire together. Also, not to be morbid, but if you’re going to protest—get a will, health care proxy & power of attorney. If you’re unable to act, you’ll want to appoint someone you trust to act for you. (Free legal advice.)

So it's a race against time: How quickly does the megalomaniac lose strength versus how quickly he destroy everything around him. The one thing you can depend on is that the megalomaniac gets more destructive and dangerous over time before he's done.

The good news is, as @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social points out, megalomaniacal leaders ultimately blow themselves up politically or militarily. The bad news is that the longer they survive, the bigger the figurative blast radius.

The way things are going in America, it should be clear we don't have much time. We certainly don't have three years. We need to help ourselves by pushing for impeachment and removal as hard as we can and carrying it out as soon as humanly possible.

If you are worried about Trump stealing the midterm elections, do the one thing that will make the biggest difference, support and follow Marc Elias in his never ending court fights. He is winning. He is a hero.

*The only way* to stop tech fascism is to take control of the technology industry and infrastructure.

That is the ONLY way.

It is FULLY possible.

We tried the carrot. Here’s the stick.

#ICE is ramping up attacks against immigrants and American citizens— and #Palantir is their surveillance backbone.

Go to www.purgepalantir.com/the-palantir-payroll/ for the list of dirty politicians trading our rights for Palantir $$$ — then call them out.

I just finished reading and it is so much worse than I even imagined. Palantir effectively controls some of our most sensitive data - from nukes to the NHS - and Palantir is loyal to the US.
NEW: Our investigation for @thenerve_news reveals not only that Peter Thiel’s Palantir is completely enmeshed in our critical national infrastructure.

It’s also the ‘cloud support’ for our nuclear weapons system 🤯

People held at the Fort Bliss immigration detention camp in Texas report guards have crushed their testicles, beaten them, broken their teeth, and more.

We're demanding an end to this inhumane treatment and to immigration detention at Fort Bliss for good.

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all.

Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

They let this little angel die in excruciating pain!

They just stood around & let her scream in pain and cry & SUFFER.

Not just the rank and file, the whole chain of command let babies suffer & DIE because of the color of their skin.

In what way is America safer by her suffering and death?

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

These days it’s: ’What are we gonna do about mass Gestapo shooting American citizens?,’ Norton said.

”What they're doing in Minnesota with the strike needs to expand.”

”We should be talking about a national general economic strike until this is over.”

After the killing of Alex Pretti by CBP agents, Chuck Schumer announced "Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included."

Now we must ensure Democrats hold the line to block more funding for ICE and CBP. You know what to do. 👇

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Fundamentally they're using Minneapolis as a training ground for gestapo tactics so they can stop the midterms by declaring martial law

These are the ones we know about. We have no idea what is going down in the concentration camps. At least one person by medical examiner reports was strangled and was deemed a homicide.

I’m not sure who needs to hear this, but what we are seeing is NOT (just) a training problem. It is a VETTING problem.

Law enforcement *disproportionately* attracts sociopaths. Layers of screening and oversight are needed to give the kind of power these goondas have. It’s broken.
If I hear one more big name former prosecutor attorney call for better training of fascist military forces that are killing people, I am going to yeet my phone into the sun.

As I said yest, there are legal commentators who are built for this moment, and PLENTY, including those on MSM, who ARE NOT.

PLEASE STOP SHOPPING AT TARGET. THEY ARE LITERALLY SUPPORTING FASCISM.
Target is HQ’d in MN & lost 35% of its value after it capitulated to Trump & gutted DEI—a $16B loss.

Now, as ICE murders Good & Pretti, as ICE arrests 2 Target employees (who were citizens)—Target does NOTHING to stop ICE.

Let’s continue our Target boycott & gut the remaining 65% value. Who’s in?
