If you want a sense of how far the surveillance state has expanded inside the United States, look at what federal authorities are doing on our highways.

Excited and hopeful to be at #onemillionrising training. I hope this will be the leadership and organization I have been looking for! The house is on fire, and we need a response that the Dems aren’t providing.

Yesterday, Senator Alex Padilla was thrown to the ground and handcuffed in a Kristi Noem press conference. Active duty military are on the ground in Los Angeles. The orange menace said people who protest against the military parade "will be met with heavy force". 1/3

On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else.

The federal government is planning to rob the vast majority of us to provide tax breaks to corporations and billionaires. And to increase the debt while they do that. If you object to this, call and write your legislators. 1/2

Until this year, I had never been to a political protest. But the actions of this administration call for protest. For the arbitrary firing of experienced and valuable government employees. For the lack of due process as they kidnap people off the street and send them to foreign prisons. 1/3

RFK Jr fired ALL 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). He's doing this to replace them with anti-science hacks who will undoubtedly determine many vaccines are unnecessary or "unsafe". Frankly, it's the only reason to replace them all. 1/4

ICE agents are now ambushing people at routine hearings. Someone who is following the rules can show up to a hearing and leave in handcuffs. Recently, this was Emerson Colindres. He's 19 and a Western Hills High School graduate. www.wlwt.com/article/comm....
Community left outraged after recent Western Hills High School graduate arrested by ICE
A recent graduate of Western Hills High School was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement earlier this week.

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?
Congress must take action to restore the rule of law.
