☎️ Call your reps AGAIN! Ask where these people are—if they don’t know, tell them unless they’re working to find out & hold DHS accountable, they’re complicit. Tell them you’re keeping records of your calls so you will have them for evidence in court. Ask if they’re familiar w/the Nuremberg trials…

I’m old enough to have huddled under my desk at school for “duck & cover drills”.

Trump’s post is further proof that he’s incompetent, unfit & truly INSANE.

TRUMP MUST BE REMOVED USING SECTION 25 OR IMPEACHMENT.

Trump is a national security risk to the U.S. & a risk to the entire world.

Nuclear testing isn’t something you greenlight in a post, but turning national security into a fear show is how authoritarians rule.

I agree. We’ve been calling for a massive strike by white collar—and all other workers—for months. Non-violent civil disobedience to protect against illegal & unconstitutional ICE abductions also needs much bigger numbers. Unless the courts hold &/or the numbers significantly increase, we ALL lose.

Trump & his corrupt, criminal regime are intentionally destroying this nation—including its economy & the value of the dollar—to enrich themselves, amass power, & weaken the will, the rights, the safety, the wealth, the power & the protections of the American people. They want absolute domination.

Dear DHS,
NO ONE is rioting, attacking, protesting or committing violence against CONSTITUTIONALLY COMPLIANT LAW ENFORCEMENT FOLLOWING THE LAW. They are PROTESTING & USING THEIR CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED RIGHTS to speak out & stand up AGAINST terrorism, violence & attacks by US DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

Yes. This man would start a nuclear war to avoid being exposed in the a Epstein files.

Because he is a psychopathic maniac that has surrounded himself with extreme psychopathic maniacs.

It's amazing how all these white men with their tough talk became such cowards. Something I learned when I was 13, that bullies are actually covering for their weakness. They did not get enough love. It's too late for that!

We have a culture of cowardice in the face of power. White American men, especially, are almost pathologically unable to speak truth to power in 2025

I have been a navy officer, not american. We had many USA ships visiting us in the caribbean.

Many US officers were guest in our longroom. We drank together, sometimes too much.

It is
beyond me how they can obey orders to commit PIRACY, murdering civilians withou due process

years as the longest enduring, & most diverse, democracy in the history of the world & despite its shortcomings, it continued to evolve. Too many Americans are unwilling to accept the REALITY of the responsibilities that go with their rights as citizens of a nation that once had great promise. 3/3

You are correct that we need to be doing so much more now in the face of the corrupt, unconstitutional & unlawful actions of this regime, but as a majority Americans are STILL CHOOSING TO FAIL.

IF just 1/3 of the more than 1/3 of Americans who FAILED to vote had shown up & voted for Harris, this country would still have dire problems, but those problems would NOT be the absolute destruction of our democracy under Trump. So, YES, the system works—but ONLY if WE, THE PEOPLE do our jobs. 1/

☎️ Call ALL your elected representatives—local & federal; your governor & local police departments & remind them your taxes pay their salaries to protect you & your community, NOT to ignore, excuse, enable & abet the constitutional & human rights violations of FEDERALLY FUNDED DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.

Athena Veritas @athenaveritas.bsky.social · 9h

Only 8% of Americans showed up to the latest & largest No Kings protest. Less than 5% of Americans bother to call their elected representatives. Over 1/3 of Americans failed to vote in the last presidential election. Yet 85% claim they oppose Project 2025 & 66% claim they oppose the Trump regime…🤷🏼‍♀️

AMERICA, YOU ALLOW THIS HAPPEN!

THIS IS BEING NORMALIZED.

THIS IS DOMESTIC TERRORISM.

EVERYONE IN THIS VIDEO WATCHED AND WALKED ON BY.

How many of you are calling your elected representatives, your governors & your local police & telling them to STOP allowing this in our communities?!

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

I believe they’re planning to finish their coup and turn this nation from a Constitutional Federated Democratic Republic into their authoritarian fascist hell hole with Trump, a wannabe king, as dictator. There is a reason they are still building detention centers.

AND AMERICANS LET THIS HAPPEN…

We are now learning how much oppression and abuse Americans will tolerate. The day will come when enough Americans will decide enough is enough and this lawless regime must be stopped. But right now too many are willing to let the lawless abuse continue.
