A federal judge stayed Noem’s decision to end Haiti’s temporary protected status, thank goodness. But it's still vital to understand how "they're eating the pets" participatory propaganda was used to motivate and justify that policy change. This article gives a detailed breakdown of that effort.
Highly recommend this article showing how the "They're Eating the Pets" refrain emerged from the right's participatory propaganda machine. Extremely relevant, as many Haitian immigrants (the targets of that false rumor/campaign) lose their status Feb 3. americanunreality.substack.com/p/american-u...

This has all been public for a couple of decades. It's Thiel’s client Vance’s job to bring this to completion if Trump doesn't suffice. (2/2)

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"?

Bodies = profits for the privatized corrupt system we have.

ICE feeds the bodies-for-profit detention industry that donates heavily to the GOP.

Investor profits should not be a motivator.

We should not have privatized detention.

Let's ask the question: How many times do the following people show up being named in the Epstein Files:

MN Governor Tim Walz: 0

Does any Republican not see the problem?
