Any president who relishes the opportunity to wage war on his own people is a both traitor to and an enemy of those people.

Multiple times during the Chicago rally before the march, the crowd started chanting "USA! USA!" There were thousands of American flags flying. We the people, the proud resisters of tyranny, are the real patriots.

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.

Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.

Stay safe out there.

"Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer."

That's who ICE arrested and disappeared as part of Donald Trump's immigration policy.

It's outrageous.

Imagine thinking domestic violence isn’t “really serious”
Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

It's about time Strange Days finally begins getting the retrospective love and respect it deserves. To me, it's the best pre-Matrix cyberpunk film other than Blade Runner and Robocop, and still better than most cyberpunk films made since.

The same people who approve of this and say people are too sensitive these days are the same ones who have others fired for “quoting” Charlie Kirk's “own” words on the internet—Prove me wrong.

There is a No Kings rally on the 18th in Ocala, Florida on the town square from 9-11am. Then from 11-3 there is an open carry celebration in the same spot. I don’t know who thought this was a good idea.

Modest reform idea: Ban police from carrying personal mobile devices while on-duty. Give them work devices and lock them down with MDM tools like a Fortune 500 corporation would lock down their employee devices.

Monitor all of the traffic. Ban them from installing unapproved apps.
You heard it from the Epstein files? No, maybe you heard it from somewhere else? So much trafficking these days....
Outside of Chuck Schumer or Fetterman or Ezra Klein posting on bluesky, I don't think I've ever seen a higher disparity in comments to likes (a strong signal of dislike).

Wow, congrats on a horrible take?
