They are extremely clear about the fact that they consider themselves to be at war with you. They do not equivocate about it. It's their stated policy.

Candidly, as a civ-mil watcher, this scene at Bragg is freaking me out more than anything else that's happened so far. Just an absolute collapse of professional military norms.

Periodic reminder that every day is STFU Friday Also, sharing the location of cops in the public performance of their jobs is ironclad First Amendment-protected expression If you're concerned something you've said has you on the Government's radar, call your lawyer instead of posting through it

Hello. I’d like to talk to the CEO of civil-military relations. I need a PhD in civ-mil affairs immediately. My nonpartisan institution appears to have contracted a case of being used for domestic partisan purposes.

This is the kind of thing that is going to happen constantly now that we have an unaccountable masked gang with complete impunity: Random scammers, stalkers and criminals are just going to pretend to be ICE, because why not?

Absolutely grotesque abuse of government power. Lying to educators in order to entrap children. No wonder they want to hide their identity.

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

This is yet another issue where @joshtpm.bsky.social has been talking for months about the need for preemptive planning and laying the groundwork for a response, and absolutely nobody seems to be listening.

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

We hear about how pro-immigrant side is extreme. There is literally nothing more extreme than this statement. Being willing to sacrifice the country’s foundations for an evil goal

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

Pam Bondi is thug scum. The Attorney General making these comments about a defendant in a federal criminal case is lawless. This administration’s unethical hacks continue to demonstrate that they want to be deposits.

no you see cops are an inherently higher caste than the rest of us, so being degraded to being an ordinary person is already enough punishment for his repeated victimization of society's weakest under the guise of law

They’re basically just trying to kill off US higher education as an industry at this point. Even a delay will pose a critical decision for thousands of prospective students whose futures are now in the air.

And the media has covered the issue as if that were the exact opposite, treating false accusations that Biden held off hurricane aid as newsworthy while burying the reality that Trump repeatedly botched disaster aid in his first term and promised to withhold aid again

one thing about the coverage of J6 and how its settled into our public memory is that is basically exclusively focuses on the mob and the attack on congress, which was a crime in and of itself but honestly pales in comparison to the coordinated attempt to abrogate the constitution that was happening

As a reminder, she didn’t even run a red light, something DHS harped on as her disobeying US laws. The cops eventually admitted they pulled over the wrong car.

They blame pollution but cut the EPA and clean air and water regulations. They blame poor nutrition but cut SNAP and programs to bring local produce to schools. They blame increased screen time while destroying public infrastructure that connects people. All while they take millions off healthcare.

Fascism sets in EXACTLY like this. Days go by. Nothing improves. The people wait with bated breath for SOMETHING or SOMEONE to help. Court orders, but no enforcement. Time passes. We become desensitized. Life goes on. Rights are chipped away. Life goes on. People die. Life goes on.

Trump is disappearing people, wants to strip people of citizenship, has assumed dictatorial budget powers, is ignoring court orders, tanking the economy, and taking open bribes left and right. Media: maybe the last President was sicker than he let on.
