Repeating this because people are misreading it again: This is a report from *the attorneys for the migrant children*—not DOJ!

bsky.app/profile/anna...
NEW: Counsel for the migrant children say that, as they understand it, all putative class members have now “been deplaned and returned to ORR custody.”

As for the delay, they add that they inadvertently overlooked the part of the court’s order requiring them to file a report.

The more times I see this, the more convinced I am that the soldiers are engaged in a form of protest or malicious compliance; I've seen many high school drill teams and marching bands more in step with each other than these guys.

Notice the troops are NOT in step, and not in "cadence"? That is another protest, and is intentional.

I read this book back in 2023. I never thought it would reflect the reality we are living in now. Reading it again—How Civil Wars Start and How to End Them by Barbara F. Walter. A must-read.

Hey, because all the cool kids are doing it, I'm starting a substack. Hopefully it will be a combination of thoughts on paganism and whatever I can do to support the Resistance.
There may also be cat pics.

I say it again:

You cannot treat someone with dignity and respect while simultaneously saying that they are false and incapable of meeting standards.

Any implementation of that exord is inherently degrading, undignified, and disrespectful.

Don't spit in my eye and tell me it's raining.
Trans Ban 2.0 details so far:

No new trans military members allowed and no surgeries or newly started hormones for military members.

Likely this is phase one with the second phase to focus on those currently serving with a hx of gender dysphoria and on hormones.

As others have said, the greatest transfer of wealth in US history will not be from the Boomers to their children but from them to the US healthcare system. The US is designed to make people insolvent and to keep them poor once they're there.

In Nazi Germany, everything Hitler did was legal. Opposing Hitler was illegal.
In Russia, opposing Putin is illegal.
In China, opposing Xi is illegal.
In America, opposing Trump is illegal.

I wish more Americans would understand what's happening right now.
