Confidential records obtained by WIRED & @propertyofthepeople.org show the ag industry deploying moles to infiltrate activist meetings, while functionally serving as FBI informants, in a shadow campaign to brand the animal rights movement America's biggest bioterrorism threat.

How the Farm Industry Spied on Animal Rights Activists and Pushed the FBI to Treat Them as Terrorists
For years, a powerful ‘Big Ag’ trade group served up information on activists to the FBI. Records reveal a decade-long effort to see the animal rights movement labeled a legitimate terrorism threat.

What is going on? This is insane. Trump just shared a completely unhinged conspiracy theory claiming President Biden was “executed in 2020” and replaced by a robot clone.

A rich con man twisted due process to escape justice, then turned around and sent an innocent father to a political death camp without even a shred of the same respect for the law. This isn’t “just one man.” It’s a test of who we are. And I refuse to accept that this is what America is becoming.

It's genuinely hard to express to sort of normal not politically plugged in non-lawyers *how* lawless the Trump administration is, and I think that's some part of the problem.
You sound like you're hyperventilating, but it's just a flat description of what is going on.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came.
Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

The EO targeting former Trump cybersecurity official Krebs is equally chilling, since Trump claims as Krebs’ crime his denial that the 2020 election was rigged. Trump, as he does, is flipping the script: election integrity is denialism. And *now* it’s a crime.

EOs targeting 2 former Trump officials aren’t getting enough attention. In invoking treason, Trump puts death penalty on table for Miles Taylor. In revoking security clearances for Penn because Taylor taught there, he gives Penn a choice: suffer or join the punishment by banning Taylor.
