Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

Legacy media are basically the mouthpieces of the billionaire tech lords trying to burn civilization and remake it in some kind of feudal hellscape. Sanitizing Charlie Kirk because he didn’t foam at the mouth like Alex Jones or look like a pustule (Steve Bannon) is a choice.

Since we are in a phase of pointing out things at museums and parks for alleged inaccuracies, perhaps it is worth mentioning the displays that leave out a major part of the story.

Criticize Trump, and the FBI shows up at your door wrapped in the excuse of “no one is above the law.” For all his rants about others weaponizing the system, it seems weaponization is the only thing he knows how to do.

While Trump played a round at his coastal golf course, thousands across Scotland took to the streets in protest. Bagpipes blared, signs waved, and the message was clear: he’s not welcome here. Love you, Scotland! 🏴 💚

We will use their horrific agenda to turn voters against them by the millions in the midterms. And yes, there will be midterms. Don’t even think about voicing defeatism and doing their work for them.

Secret police, from the dictionary:
"a police force that functions as the enforcement arm of a government's political policies and whose activities, which often include surveillance, intimidation, and physical violence as a means of suppressing dissent, are usually concealed from the public."

The use of national security rhetoric to justify mass incarceration echoes the same logic that led to the forced removal and incarceration of over 125,000 Japanese Americans—our parents, grandparents and extended families—under Executive Order 9066.
