And I am agreeing once more with ... Joe Rogan?! 😳
bsky.app/profile/ofth...
Rogan: "You don't want militarized people in the streets just roaming around, snatching up people — many of which turn out to be U.S. citizens that just don't have their papers on them. Are we really gonna be the Gestapo, 'Where's your papers?' Is that what we've come to?"

I completely agree with … {checks notes, checks them a second time, and then blinks several times} … Joe Rogan?
Rogan: "Its very ugly to watch someone shoot a U.S. citizen, especially a woman, in the face…It just looked horrific to me. When people say it's justifiable because the car hit it, it seemed like she was turning the car away."

Trump thugs are killing, brutalizing, and torturing American citizens. That is not an “immigration crackdown.” It’s domestic repression and occupation.

Yeah as much as I hate Trump, the states run elections and maybe he can say no elections and some red states will say yes, but we don't really have another method to get legitimate leaders. Even Russia and Iran have "elections".
