I’m old enough to remember when “America First” meant staying out of foreign wars & no govt overreach & protecting citizens & respecting the sanctity of life

They have no values. Stop pretending it’s a political party & not a cult whose leader will never ever be wrong

They will murder you.

Looking back, everyone will one day realize that all that woke stuff was right. Unfortunately, being right won’t erase the suffering.

Local people protested, people raised money and showed up for court support. Local press covered what happened which is how folks on here came to know this happened. Local people didn't abandon her.
They shot an undocumented man here on a busy street in the middle of the day.

They put “5 shots, 7 holes” (agents bragging words) in a Latina woman. Lied about the reasons. Charged her with attacking them then dropped it all.

There wasn’t enough outrage.

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

All promised after January 6, 2021 to stop funding lawmakers who tried to overturn the 2020 election.

And all have broken that promise.

Walz: "If they have emails showing that I have committed fraud, you should get those! Why aren't they putting them out there? Why aren't they turning them over to prosecutors? Right now they're hiding behind a veil of innuendo. They're protecting the biggest fraudster in the White House."

We cannot forget who was complicit on January 6th.

Ted Cruz fanned the flames of insurrection.

Ken Paxton provoked the rioters before the assault.

John Cornyn refused to investigate the attack.

They have forfeited their right to represent us in our nation’s Capitol.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Crockett: "Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate. As we sit here on January 6, I do want to be clear: somebody else was trying to be a Maduro of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful."

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

They have a legal right to monitor you, invade your spaces, take up all the resources and air, and you aren't supposed to say shit about it because you're part of the outgroup that doesn't qualify for safety and privileged protections.

If you have spaces away from them, they lose the opportunity to harass and bother you, which they see as a legally protected birthright due to their class status

And they also rely on it as a way to keep their feet on our necks, lest we have some community discussions about them, but without them.

Imo, this is tied to the quote about how conservatism relies on

1. ingroups are protected by law, but not bound by it

and

2. Outgroups are bound by laws, but not protected by them

Part of their protection is making sure you're never allowed to be away from them. You aren't allowed to be free
