In a country that venerates its Founders, I wonder how they would've reacted if redcoats had stopped a woman on horseback for following them; detained her at gunpoint; and made her pee on the side of the road.

Just kidding, I don't wonder; we know what they ACTUALLY did to redcoats for less.
Maria Santay, a U.S. citizen and community observer, live-streamed masked ICE agents detaining her after they boxed in her car from all sides and smashed her window. Local police showed up and did nothing.

She was denied access to a restroom, and forced to pee in the parking lot while handcuffed.

Love the "this shit again" look on this person's face while being harassed by an agent of the most powerful government on earth; it's beautiful
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.

Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

I love the conceit that calling for a violent overthrow of the government is now a life in prison offense to these people, whose hobby for my entire 47 years on this planet has been calling for the violent overthrow of the government

I have spent the last four hours trying to get a series of ios, android, and PC devices to talk to a printer - a task I did 25 years ago and many times since - with no success at anything but ruining half a ream of paper; meanwhile my employer is demanding I find ways to use these companies' "AI" 👍

Republicans: everyone must be able to carry any gun at all times,
up to and including high powered rifles, to protect themselves against tyranny

also Republicans, without batting an eye: carrying a gun is unquestionable justification for federal agents to shoot you dead in the street

I'm really looking forward to hearing from the same people who have spent decades yelling about the Second Amendment that this shooting was somehow justified because the observer (allegedly) had a gun.

It turns out, it was never about *all* of our liberty.

Been thinking a lot recently about how the much-vaunted Founders would have reacted to pols saying things like this; or "we must remain non-violent, the bad guys WANT you to melt ICE officers"; or "we need to tolerate these abuses just a little longer, because elections are coming."
JD Vance: "I'm headed to Minneapolis where we're gonna talk with ICE agents and local officials about how we turn down the chaos. My simple piece of advice to them is going to be if you want to turn down the chaos in Minneapolis, stop fighting immigration enforcement."

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

We have an executive branch that's on a crime spree against the American public. The other branches of government can use their constitutional powers to put a stop to this. If they decline to do that the only other remedy is in the declaration of independence

Are we talking a *minor* electrical issue, or a Swissair 111 kinda deal, cuz I have some bubbly on standby
UPDATE

Air Force One is returning to Andrews due to a “minor electrical issue.”

The President and his delegation will board a different aircraft and head to Davos.

I bet the rest of the world's security services are entirely too bitch-made to carry out a black op on a head of state in a known location; European intel and covert services are just too weak and soft to do real dirty work. Not worried about getting proven wrong; they're too scared to even try.

I have never been a fan of this guy but there’s gotta be some kind of code where people sitting on their asses posting shouldn’t come after people who are actually in the streets
I don’t have time nor inclination to think much about this right now but in the last 12 hours or so a ton of people in the left of this site have suddenly been attacking me, including with carefully edited screenshots of old tweets, and I’m pretty confused what’s happening.
