JD needs it to be a shit hole. This elevates him because he got out. He likes to believe he did this on his own, being is so gifted and chosen.

I've always found people there and in Hamilton to be kind. Two towns that really suffered when industry died.

They know JD is a poser.
He doesn't represent Middies, he uses them to create a fake bootstraps narrative for himself.
They're so much better and dynamic and more interesting than he is.

I hear from informed sources that these #NoKings rallies are more than twice as big as last time, making them easily the largest protests in US history. Thanks to everyone and especially organizers.

This is why we march.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

White words on a black background read:

50+
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

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

I think we're going to see a lot of bots/agitators posting on Bluesky today acting like they're at No Kings events.
MAGA wants violence at these events. They'll try to seed that violence online.

He idolizes Putin because Putin kills people and gets away with it and wins every election by 113%.
He wants that power for himself.

Yes
We've never had trillion dollar technology companies using high powered algorithms to keep our primate brains amused/angry so we stay on their app.

We're not naturally dumber. We're being manipulated to be dumber and we're letting it happen.

The real danger of MAGA lies not in Trump but in Vought: a zealous Christian nationalist with an encyclopedic knowledge of government bureaucracy who's willing (even happy) to hide in the shadows while directing any glad-hand who wants to focus on winning votes.

To the MAGA cult, he is speaking truth.

He's reminding them that under the GOP and Trump you're allowed to say racist and homophobic and misogynistic shit and be celebrated for it rather than facing consequences.

This is "muh freeze peach" they hollered about for decades. They have it now.

These are the videos we thought would change everything. Americans would see the brutality, the cruelty and turn on ICE.

"Wait for the videos of the crying mothers, the children. They're coming soon." - June 2025?

We were right.
About the videos coming out ...
Not sure it's changed any minds.

It's the same as the Big Lies.
I do it because I can, and I know you know it's wrong. But it also reminds you that you can't stop me.
That's the point. Raw power.

Trump commuting Santos is not just a curiosity. It’s a feature of corruption… it’s a message… if you like me you can get away with anything. If we accept this as ok our kids will never forgive us
