With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

The lives of Americans and the others they are tearing down because of their obvious hatred, will not end well. The leaders are ensuring people are constantly off balance, ensuring compliance to any reality they present.
My hope is those that can really help, and their supporters make it happen

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.
