Was reading Total Defense and it points out that the Haitian Revolution and fear of it spreading to American slaves was arguably the first in a line of fear of outside agitators threatening America through spreading ideas (Bolsheviks, Japanese spies, Islamist terrorism, etc)

Also, a woman was handcuffed at a subway station in NYC (Franklin Ave) when she intervened asking why a delivery man was asked to show work permit by undercover agents. There is a video of that.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

This administration is incompetent and endangering our troops. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared war plans in an encrypted chat—including a journalist—two hours before strikes on the Houthis in Yemen, the White House confirmed.

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

It drives me mad when financially stable people scoff at the idea of community work and volunteering. "Not unless I get paid" because they coded themselves to think that every interaction they have with the world, has to be monetised.
Not everything has to turn profit.
Not everything has to turn profit.
Resistance isn’t only huge actions. Resistance can be:
-Supporting libraries
-Serving at a soup kitchen
-Sending a few bucks to mutual aid
-Donating new/gently used items
-Checking in on neighbors
-Offering your services pro-bono
-Volunteering
-Neighborhood cleanups
Helping each other is powerful

4 in 5 doctors are employees of hospital systems, private equity firms, insurance giants, or other corporations.
That's a healthcare system that prioritizes profits over people, which isn't a healthcare system at all.

To be clear, everybody brown is being questioned. If you have ANY melanin in your skin, you’re a target.
ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe.
That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US.
This is the second verified incident I've heard about.
We were here 1st.

POTUS is shutting the US government down, except for immigration enforcement and military activities.
That’s the story. He’s shutting the whole government down. He’s closing up every aspect of the United States operation, except the parts with guns.

I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike
