So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not?
Naming someone is not doxxing them, and moving them to another city to kill more is conspiracy against rights.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?
ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.
I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

Trump sold the oil from a seized Venezuelan tanker for $500,000,000.. Where is the money? He deposited it in a bank in Qatar where Congress can't get to it.
He stole the oil from Venezuela, but he stole the money from America.
Why has Congress not impeached and imprisoned him for his crimes?

Jack Smith is testifying publicly. This is courage.
The evidence didn’t fail. DOJ policy paused accountability for a sitting president. Today puts the record & facts on camera: evidence, process & what accountability is supposed to look like, even when power tries to intimidate it out of existence.

Even though this is obvious, it’s hard to keep in mind.
