Educator and mom seeking liberty and justice for all. Democracy hopeful. Proud Harris/Walz voter.
Bovino’s rant fits the authoritarian indicators in our assessment: empowered security forces acting with impunity, militarized immigration raids, executive overreach through federalized enforcement, and loyalty-driven ops unmoored from oversight. His tone isn’t an outlier but a symptom.

Excellent reminder of all the ACA provides us. And about the GOP-nothing-plan that doesn’t exist.
Forget extending the tax credits, now the Republicans are talking getting rid of the Affordable Care Act completely...

What does freedom mean to you?
Have you asked your low info voter friends that?
Have you told them what it means to you? Does it mean masked men brutalizing random people—guns in your face—tear gas on your street?
Have you ever shared a video about #ICELawlessness?
Silence is complicity.

📍Senator Fetterman had a VFIB—the leading cause of cardiac arrest—he almost died if not for his implanted defibrillator, which can cost $34,000 to over $51,000. Days ago, he also just voted with GOP to gut health insurance tax credits for millions. Hope he has a change of heart.

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

He is a computer safety researcher.
