Now I know what ICE will tell the world when I am taken

I was born during my parents' tour of Germany

My dad joined to escape segregation in North Carolina

I joined, too

There's only a handful of countries they can send me to where I won't be killed for MY service...

this is an explicitely nazi administration and anyone who still supports them should be viewed as such

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

"We took the freedom of speech away"

~Trump said that shit & meant it

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 3h

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

Who's on first?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 2h

Q: Are you going to work with your administration to designate antifa a foreign terror organization?

TRUMP: You mean anti-terror?

Q: Antifa

TRUMP: Antifa?

Q: A foreign terror organization

TRUMP: Would you like to see it done? I'd be glad to do it. Does everybody agree? It sounds good to me

This is obviously hateful, but for people indifferent to the hate, just a big waste of money. You have the Secretary of Transportation cheering the destruction of functional public infrastructure.

Will Stancil @whstancil.bsky.social · 7h

Just openly cheering the destruction of any representation of gay people in public space. They think their power is totally unrestricted, and the entire country will support them rolling back society to the 1950s, or maybe the 1850s

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 9h

His masked agents already are grabbing people off the street.

Separating children from their parents.

Creating fear.

Taking people for “how they look.”

How about a happy thread…if you can, show me a photo of a time you were happy, or you captured a moment of joy or beauty.

I think we could all use it!

Napped so hard when I came in from work I couldn't tell if it was AM or PM when the clock read 6:30.

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.
