Facebook nuked my profile overnight—180-day lock, appeal denied. No warning. Fuck that. I’m not shutting the fuck up. I’m doubling down—Bluesky, Substack, Reddit, new FB. Fuck the fascist cowards. You won’t silence me. Truth doesn’t die in silence. History will remember who spoke. I won’t be erased.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.

The #Guantanamo immigrant detention facility will house 30k. The largest U.S. prison currently holds 6300 on 28 sq. miles. The U.S. only controls 45 sq. miles in Guantanamo, including the bay. It currently is built for 800 inmates.You can't fit 30k unless you "concentrate" them 🤨

Happy Black History Month!
Today in US History: On Feb. 3, 1870, the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, granted black men the right to vote. It was passed by Congress on February 26, 1869. Black Americans were set free by the 13th amendment. The 14th Amendment guaranteed citizenship.
