2️⃣Deployment of ICE outside polling stations, having people vote at the barrel of a gun
3️⃣Disqualifying votes by using the politicised FBI
4️⃣Mike Johnson refusing to seat the Democrats that won because he alleges fraud

I don't think Europeans understand that this is a very real possibility. (🧵2/2)

story updated: the investigation 'was opened in January 2025 following complaints about X's algorithm and the content it recommended'. It 'was expanded in July 2025 after reports of sexually explicit deepfakes and holocaust denial content circulating on the platform.'

"Es gibt Monster, es gibt Helden und eine große, gleichgültige Masse. In solchen Momenten der Geschichte erkennt man, wer man ist. Die Menschen auf Minnesotas Straßen finden gerade heraus, wer sie sind – genauso wie die ICE‑Mitarbeiter herausfinden, wer sie sind."
Autor Stephen Marche über Trumps Irrsinn: „Im Kern des amerikanischen Systems herrscht Fäulnis“
Der kanadische Autor Marche hat wenig Hoffnung, dass die USA bald zu demokratischen Verhältnissen zurückfinden. Er warnt auch vor Bürgerkrieg.

I see lots of stuff like across the newspapers. One thing I have not seen is a detailed account of how Epstein got his money. Where did it come from? Who was bankrolling him or doing business with him? observer.co.uk/news/interna...
Files suggest Epstein had close links to Branson as Starm...
Newly released documents turn the spotlight back onto the former prince, whom the prime minister says ‘should be prepared’ to speak before the US Congress

Ich finde es spannend, wie man gegen Linksextremismus "mit aller Härte des Gesetzes" vorgehen muss, aber den Rechtsextremismus, den muss man mit "guter Politik wegregieren".

Putin hat seine Raketen verschossen und die Menschen in der Ukraine sitzen in bitterer Kälte und Dunkelheit. Und nachdem alles kaputt und die Raketen erstmal verbraucht sind, verkauft er Trump "eine Woche nicht in Städte feuern" als große gutmütige Geste. Zynischer geht es nicht.

"So it’s not only that federal agents kill an American citizen like authoritarian thugs, but their superiors in Washington justified that killing with the kind of bald-faced lie that recalls Tehran and Moscow ... The Trump administration’s actions augur an increasingly violent crackdown"

Must-read.

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti

Absolutely heartbreaking
Photos of Alex Pretti with Sara’s caption: On August 16th at approximately 10:00 pm I received a call from the ICU at the VA saying my Dad had sepsis and needed to be intubated to stay alive so Josh and I headed in. We were greeted by the kindest, most calming and warm soul who helped us understand what was happening and showed deep care for us and my Dad. He continued to show utmost patience and kindness over the next few days as my Dad remained in the ICU and we were there continually. It was Alex Pretti, the man shot today by ICE. If you see this video and don't think it's murder, I don't understand your thinking and ask you to question your heart. He was out there trying to help and protect and from the little we knew of him, it doesn't surprise me he was not afraid to be on the front lines of this horrible scene in our Minneapolis. Weeping for his family and all those at the VA who no longer get to work with him or receive his care.

Es dürfte DER Schlüsselmoment in der US-Geschichte sein – der Moment, der alles offenbart: die Unschuld des Opfers, die Aggression der Mörderbande & die Schande der US-Demokraten.
Mittlerweile gibt das Regime das Motiv zu: Sie ziehen ab, wenn Minnesota die Wählerlisten rausrückt — DIE WÄHLERLISTEN!

More evidence that the US government are lying liars who will lie about anything, this footage of ICE killing Alex Pretti supports the claim he was protecting a woman from violent ICE agents. The only thing he was brandishing was a phone.

The same experts that dissect Russian propaganda now dissect statements of the DHS. This is painful to watch - but utterly necessary.

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

It's basically Fukuyama again...

Add in the need of alpha males to be 'heroic' (which modern, sedate, liberal society doesn't readily provide an answer to) and you have a recipe for where we are now.
