THE DATA ON DATA CENTERS - they are busy terra forming and transforming Loudoun County like it was a subdivision of their business, blithely ignoring the fact that we don’t want any of it, & won’t surrender our lives to some imagined “Sputnik-like” race against Russia.

Well, well... Now hear this, Marines. ICE came for a family member of one of your own. A mother of two. You're on the wrong side of history. Your identity will destroy you, for your participation. You need to put down the guns. Or wait for more. 💯We told you, he doesn't care about you or family.
