I have not said this lately.

Maybe you are engaging in politics or social activism for the first time.

That does not mean that this is the first time ANYONE is engaging with politics or social activism.

It’s a long game, that has been played for generations.

At this point X is like 1950s Vienna, a whole place made up entirely of spies, running ops against other spies, with no non-spy people. Or maybe like a 1971 Black Panthers convention where 3/4 of the attendees are conintelrpo.

this is an ugly and dangerous attack on the rule of law, a real threat to the people targeted—and just a massive political blunder by the white house. 1
Sen. Mark Kelly has released a statement.

"If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies..."

Amazing!!!!
This is a legal, easy and effective action.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

My 2 cents:

- Trump saw Mamdani’s meteoric rise. He beat everyone, including him and the oligarchs.

- Mamdani ran on affordability and fighting for the working class.

- Trump doesn’t care about either but he wants to be seen as such.

- Embracing Mamdani is his way of co-opting these issues.

(Aceituno voted for Trump in 2024 because of the border and the economy. He now calls it ‘the worst decision of my life.’)”
