People normally do not go on vacation because they need more oppressive, punitive, impossible-to-fully-gather-all-info-required paperwork, to a place where the government will use the tiniest omission of no real significance as a good legal pretext to arrest a guest in our country. Shameful.

I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was taken to a detention center and held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no lawyer, no medical care

Trump says the Warner Bros deal must include selling CNN. That is a president using his power to target media he cannot control, something you expect from autocrats, not from a U.S. president. This is how dictatorships announce themselves.

Interesting.
One thing Trump & Hegseth has brought to the public eye due to incompetence & disregard for the IC & our military. We have people that do sketchy shit by mosts people's standards. The Caribbean murders & hijacking are being done by JSOC. Not regulars. They aren't for public consumption or knowledge

Upon researching for this story I discovered that Republicans for National Renewal founder and grass roots director, Shane Trejo, is listed as an administrator of a Telegram group chat created by a “pro-nazi blogger” in which some users have expressly shared their neo-nazi beliefs.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

QAnon has been deemed a domestic terror issue by the FBI. There have been murders and kidnappings connected to QAnon. The imagery of QAnon often involves executions.
It appears that a QAnon supporter who is a member of a QAnon outlet known as "NewsTreason 17" (whose logo is a Q & name is a reference to Q being the 17th letter of the alphabet) was "admitted" into the White House yesterday & got a White House press briefing room pass.

Vancouver is in Washington, and Portland, in Oregon. In every state, people are demanding that ICE stop its cruel, chaotic, & corrupt acts. Are you speaking up where you live?
