I never imagined I’d live through America turning its weapons inward. The Constitution ignored. The world stepping back. Chaos sold as order. I’m here to witness, name it, and fight it. The Lincoln Project: “The worst of us are killing the best of us.”
ICE is what happens when Bush’s 2003 immigration enforcement is treated as a national security project: militarized posture, expansive authority, detention as routine, and oversight that can’t keep up. The result isn’t just enforcement, it’s intimidation, and it reshapes civic life through fear.

When this country begins the long work of rebuilding from the damage of fascism, we’ll need leaders who tell the truth, accept responsibility, and govern with intelligence and moral clarity. I believe Pete Buttigieg is that kind of leader.

If your daily intake is “people are being harmed, and it’s ongoing, and it could come here,” your mind and body may respond like you’re living inside an alarm system. That’s not you being dramatic. That’s adaptation to perceived threat. It is real.

When the brain perceives ongoing danger (even through news), it activates the fight/flight system (adrenaline + cortisol). When there’s no “resolution,” many people flip into freeze/collapse: fatigue, low motivation, shutting down.

If you’re checking ICE stories repeatedly, your brain learns:
“I must stay alert or I’ll miss the next disaster.”
That constant scanning creates mental overwork and sleep disruption, even if you’re technically “resting.”

When you’re repeatedly exposed to suffering you can’t stop, the brain can slip into learned helplessness (a classic pathway to depression).
Not because you don’t care, but because you care so much and the events feel unstoppable.

Moral injury is what happens when you witness actions that violate your core values and sense of what’s right and there’s no accountability or safety. This often produces anger + grief + disgust + despair, and it’s uniquely draining.

Repeated exposure to violent stories can create secondary traumatic stress especially when the victims feel relatable or the threat feels close to home. Recent reports about ICE shootings in Minneapolis and the intensification of enforcement have escalated fear and distress nationwide.

Stephen King has been an absolute inspiration for speaking out against the fascist regime.

Los Angeles has had National Guard support backing ICE since June 2025, and around 250 remain. I’m tired of being told to normalize this. We are living in a fascist state.

The Nazi Third Reich regime’s secret police were called the Gestapo; short for Geheime Staatspolizei, meaning “Secret State Police.” In the U.S. Fourth Reich regime, the secret police are called ICE, meaning “Incarceration, Censorship & Eradication.”

While we’re acquiring things that don’t belong to us, I have declared myself the title of state bird of Missouri. I know, seems weird right? But these are weird times in the Reich.

When KKKrump disbands Congress and the Courts, putting MAGA conservatives out of their jobs, do you think they’ll finally notice that they have been enabling a dictator? Or will they continue to say this is simply business as usual?

I’m so very proud of my nation as our president teaches our children how to use the middle finger to hard-working Americans.

KKKrump Walk of Fame star in Hollywood defaced: “terrorist” “pedophile” “traitor” “tyrant” - it should be removed. No normal citizen would want a star for Charles Manson, Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot, or Idi Amin. So why honor this Fascist? This Benedict Arnold?

We could talk about all the ridiculous things he does instead of governing with a coherent narrative. But today I am beginning to realize fumigation won’t be sufficient. When he is out, the whole place will have to be razed and rebuilt anew. Only complete destruction by fire will expel the evil.

Actor Ronald Reagan, backed by Nancy, elected President. 👿 Greed has always been part of our history, but Reagan advanced cowboy individualism, economic inequality, increased natl debt, was anti-union, cut social services, ignored AIDS epidemic, & more. He played a big part in where we are today.
