LA RESIDENT: “The cruelty is staggering. People are hiding in their homes from the federal government like Anne Frank. If you’re a Christian and you’re still supporting this you’ve lost your mind. You’re not gonna get a job because of what they’re doing. Absolute brutality.”

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

On 6/12, DHS Sec’y Kristi Noem said “We are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.” This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.

I'm not sure what "usage" means. I get a lot more out of reading this site than Twitter, which is just a stream of white supremacists and spam. And I definitely get much more engagement posting here than I did after Elon took over. It works fine, even without randos yelling slurs at me.

It's been 81 years since thousands of Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy—confronting authoritarianism with courage and resolve. And because of their sacrifice, freedom prevailed. We remember them—today and always.

Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.
