You just can show up to a protest armed with hand guns. Or arms for that matter. You just can’t. Is it legal? Sure. But you just can’t do that.
Agent: These guys were all threatening us yesterday with hand guns.
...
Agent: *Hand* guns, like threatening to shoot us.

Reporter: You mean like with hand symbols?

A: Pulling them out, trying to engage us.

R: Pulling out literal guns?

A: No. Making... assuming we were going to do something.

There are literally bodies buried in the golf courses.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from yesterday’s Epstein files release.

WHAT ELSE ARE THEY HIDING???

You get the feeling the online right’s messages don’t even make sense anymore? Maybe it’s because their ideology is an empty husk, their leaders are insane, and they’ve lost the ability to articulate anything.

Just a passing thought, but I wonder to what extent the focus on Minneapolis is because in a very real way, the right wants a do-over of 2020 where instead of a broadly sympathetic public resolving to do more about racism for six months, they opened fire nationwide and ended organized dissent.

You can’t “train” cops out of the kind of massive personality flaws law enforcement agencies attract and amplify. Call it designed incompetence, but these systems are built on violence, intimidation, and skirting the self-imposed “rules” whenever possible.

one of my recent preoccupations is the visceral hostility the MAGA right has for the histories and traditions of the United States. these are people who spit on the Declaration and salute third-rate European despots!
It's striking that progressives like Tim Walz and Zohran Mamdani evoke the middle American attitude that, "Yes, we can fix these social problems because we're Americans and it's the right thing to do!" While the "America first" right only emulates failed and failing nation-states elsewhere.

After starting the year searching the highest levels of govt for fraud and not finding any, only to close it out by raiding daycares to the cheers of millions, is truly insane. A new low.

A really simple cognitive mapping of how tech has already infiltrated and grafted itself on our political, financial, and military branches. They’re setting the table to create a new feudal-capitalist system where they set the rules and we remain alienated and powerless. www.authoritarian-stack.info
