Think through your self defense. Trump's fascist dictatorship is at war with us.

The US Constitution: "Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them" or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort."

Treason is the first grounds for impeachment. 8647

This is truly horrifying.

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach…with Antifa."

The House impeaches. The Senate tries. The Senate can convict and remove. Moreover, the Congress can reduce Bondi's federal income to $1/year. That should happen immediately. If Trump tries to pay her anyway, the Congress has still more grounds for impeachment of the President. 8647

Merrick Garland green-lit the search of Mar-a-Lago. It happened in August 2022 three months before Jack Smith was appointed. Jack Smith was in the Netherlands at the Hauge prosecuting Kosovo war crimes when Mar-a-Lago was searched. Eric should have listened to my podcast.

Failing to share this helps the child-raping fascist dictator. Do not help the child-raping fascist dictator. Instead, share this, demand the release of the Epstein files, and 8647.

This is out of hand. These agents are there to cause trouble and violence, not to keep people safe. These are the scenes that play out in war torn, destitute countries - not America.

🚨 ICE said Marimar Martinez “rammed their vehicles.”

Bodycam footage says otherwise.

It shows an ICE agent ram his own vehicle into hers, sneer “Do something, bitch,” and then shoot her.

We can never believe anything ICE accuses anyone of.

Alan Howe @alanhowe.bsky.social · 2d

Meaning: "If there is no other way to keep the Epstein files hidden."

MAGA and the GOP are pedo cults devoted to protecting the men like Trump who raped children. Release the evidence and prove me wrong.

Understand what they are doing: using the massive power of the state - including military power and the power to imprison - to carry out a campaign to eliminate their political opposition.

It's growing in seriousness by the hour.

Trump on pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell: Haven't heard the name in so long. I’ll take a look at it. I’ll speak to the DOJ. A lot of people have asked me for pardons.

Reporter: But she’s convicted of sex trafficking

No President should ever stoke this kind of division and dehumanize the other half of the country in this way.

The image shows two X posts. The first, by Juliette Kayyem (@juliettekayyem
) from 1 hour ago, states: "'Take care of' is not subtle. This weekend the ground has shifted and no person can deny what the president, unpopular and unfit, intends. To remain silent is to welcome this. They can both sides or claim they didn't hear, but there is no wiggle room about his plans now." The second, by Aaron Rupar (@atrupar
) from 6 hours ago, quotes Trump addressing the Navy: "We have to take care of this little gnat that's on our shoulder called the Democrats." The post includes a photo of Trump speaking to a group in Navy uniforms, with a caption noting he "called the Democrats. They want to give all of our money to illegal."

When you hire people to act out Nazi propaganda, you are a Nazi. Watters is a Nazi, working for Nazi state television. Do not be surprised or confused about this.

Do you want to live under Trump's fascist dictatorship, or are you going to fight back like our patriots in Chicago and Portland?

Decoding Fox News @decodingfoxnews.bsky.social · 3d

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️
