You should watch this. It’s really good. It shows how Ukraine literally kicked their Russian muppet of a president out of the country.

Americans always think we are in unprecedented times. Learn something, instead. Don’t waste the lessons of history.

They did. They use the same tactics. Their disinformation and manipulation strategy is identical. This was engineered. They are another ideology, and it is now extreme.

There are so many documentaries you could watch about the 1940s. Pick your favorite platform and watch a documentary about death squads. The first ones were everyday people. Many said no, but the ones who said yes did the deed.

One of the craziest stories I've seen in a long time. If you think Trump and his administration are extreme and depraved, just wait until you learn about the young guns who are positioning themselves to take over the reigns in the next few decades

"They actually have to give warnings twice. Those warnings are not heard on the videos and don't appear to have been given in the incident.

Chicago police brass are said to be furious about how this played out."

"The court order also required authorities to warn the crowd in clear terms that tear gas is about to be used to disperse the crowd, giving people time to clear the area."

David Knickerbocker @itsgorain.bsky.social · 3h

"A federal court order issued last Thursday strictly prohibited federal officers from using tear gas and other riot control weapons against protesters, journalists or onlookers...except in "equivalent circumstances to those where the officer is authorized to use deadly force."
