Social engineering the churches...just plain evil people.

1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture.

The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention.

Here’s how they did it... 🧵

The Questionable Authority @questauthority.bsky.social · 9d

If the order is scoped to the 50 states + 1, I expect to learn that they sent out orders to federalize the Guam guard units by morning, and I'm only halfway joking about that.

Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield @agdanrayfield.bsky.social · 9d

Late tonight, a federal judge issued a sweeping new order prohibiting the president from deploying any National Guard forces—from any state or DC—to Oregon.

The president cannot keep playing whack-a-mole with different states’ Guard units to get around court orders and the rule of law.

I agree with Josh but with one caveat: Words can demoralize people. I have political science-y disagreements with people who say "America is now fascist," but more to the point, I don't want people to internalize the idea that it's all done and dusted. Trump is far weaker than may people realize.

Josh Busby @busbyj2.bsky.social · 9d

Fighting with each other whether the Trump administration is/is not fascist/totalitarian seems kind of pointless. Labels aside, it is not a fully consolidated dictatorshp, whatever we want to call it and we need to work together to get them out.

Bad Bunny’s monologue on SNL last evening. He proved again why he’s one of the biggest artists on the planet.
He definitely exposed America’s cultural insecurity. When someone speaks Spanish on national TV, half the country panics.

Trump is so distraught over his third government shutdown and its subsequent impact to millions of Americans, he’s consumed his days with playing golf, surfing social media and posting AI videos.

im going to go out on a limb and say, this is psychotic

it's instructive to ask, what would have stopped them from doing this? what could anyone have done differently that would have led them to conclude this extraordinary thing was unnecessary? and the answer is nothing

UPDATE: Hegseth today called up 400 members of the Texas National Guard, with Gov. Abbott's apparent permission, to be deployed "where needed, including in the cities of Portland and Chicago." www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Mr. President, it’s not spin — it’s real life for millions of American families. If their health care premiums go up, they’re going to feel the pain and a lot of them won’t be able to afford it. Let’s sit down and fix this

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans.

Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies.

Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

Within the legal community, every conceivable alarm bell is ringing.

And all of them are too late.

America has no meaningful federal law enforcement anymore. It has Trump personal lawyers and a Trump political machine that masquerades as rule of law. There *is* no DOJ or FBI now.

Please share.

Both the Lindsey Halligan Nomination and the New James Comey Indictment Confirm That the DOJ and FBI Functionally No Longer Exist As Law Enforcement Agencies

The crisis at the FBI and DOJ is over; rule of law lost. The reality now is that Trump has a domestic army for his paramilitary ops (ICE) and a domestic army for his partisan law enforcement ops.
