When our freedom is threatened because the rule of law that guarantees it has been hijacked by a lawless, tyrannical regime, WE THE PEOPLE don’t check to see which side we’re on before we fight back.
We’re on each other’s side. We have each other’s backs.

They Said Red America Would Stay Silent. Then It Roared “No Kings.”
From the plains of Wyoming to the pews of Georgia, millions stood in defiance of tyranny. Inside are the voices, colors, and conviction of a nation finding its roar.

Rand Paul talking like an actual libertarian
Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

A lot of people and organizations have stayed on X because many members of their audience are still there. But for most of them, their engagement is steadily falling. Even for bigger accounts. This is by design. They’re wasting time when they could be rebuilding elsewhere. It’s sunk cost fallacy.

25 dead so far across Texas from flooding. Local authorities are blaming poor forecasting.
It’s all so tragically predictable and criminally negligent.

NEW: Mass layoffs began today at NOAA.
Workers were fired by email at the agency which runs the National Weather Service, National Hurricane Centre & Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre.
Services are already shutting down.
The most dangerous regime in the world for US citizens is now their own.

Jared Wise is a former FBI agent who on Jan. 6 called Capitol police officers "Gestapo" and exhorted fellow insurrectionists to kill them.
Now he is "..a man... responsible for the department’s official effort to exact revenge against those who had tried to hold the rioters accountable."
