The protests, which took place in dozens of U.S. cities including San Francisco, Chicago, New York City, and Philadelphia, were organized by A15 Action, a newly formed group that worked to "coordinate a multi-city economic blockade on April 15 in solidarity with Palestine." The group's website directs users to a "bail and legal defense fund" hosted through ActBlue, the Democratic Party's online fundraising juggernaut.
Those who donate to the fund, the ActBlue page says, are sending money to the Community Justice Exchange, which provides "money bail, court fees and fines" and other legal services to "community-based organizations … that contest the current operation and function of the criminal legal and immigration detention systems." The exchange is a project of the Tides Center, a left-wing dark money network funded by Soros and other liberal billionaires.

It's going to be a hot Summer and smoldering Fall this year.
The last one for awhile, if Donald Trump picks a good Attorney General this time.
He just recently sided with Mike Johnson and the Uniparty. Not the freedom caucus, mind you but the freaking uniparty! That should be an incredible setback, but no one is willing to admit that Trump just gave a nod to the very swamp he claims to want to drain!
Both Trump and Johnson did a complete 180° and are now currently "playing ball" with the deep state. Johnson sacrificed his devout Christian beliefs by funding the abortion effort through the last government funding bill. Trump giving his endorsement of Mike Johnson is the signal IT'S OVER.
That's what I heard, others milage may vary. I honestly don't think most have realized just how utterly hopeless it really is going forward. But by all means, wish and daydream away to your heart's content. We all need and should have some type of coping mechanism by now, but I know it's a bit harder for some.
There's no "plan B" at all. It's either Trump or nothing and that's strategically idiotic but its too late now. God forbid anything happens to Trump, but it doesn't look like he'll be much different IF they allow him to win.
I think they finally found something that sticks and Trump is taking a deal. Same with Mike but different dirt.
Trump is for funding Ukraine! The very THING that's dragging us into WWIII needs to be funded so we can get there apparently.
We. Are. So. Fuct.

That’s why so many vehemently defend speech, especially the kind they dislike.
If you can’t say death to a country, then what happens when on the internet someone says we should just nuke a country? That’s a statement I would always disagree with, but I don’t think you should go to jail for it.
It’s a slippery slope.
I bet the one guy who said it is on a list now though.

"Remember 9/11"
Soon after 9/11 occurred I read an online article "Bin Laden admits to 9/11". At the end of the article it sourced a Pakistani interview with Bin Laden. In that source article Bin Laden stated he had nothing to do with 9/11. He said it was planned by people inside america. I was very perplexed by the article and its source at that time. But latter realized 99% of the people will never check the sources. They just swallow propaganda hook, line and sinker without ever thinking about it.
Without 9/11, the american taxpayers would question why 6 trillion dollars was spent on all the wars of plunder in the middle east and Asia since 9/11. The psychopaths in control can never admit, the wars were planned prior to 9/11. To try contain the new emerging super power (China) by controlling the worlds oil fields (Brzezinski Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives).
Before fixing the world. We need to first fix ourselves. Its only through our ignorance that the psychopaths have control. They promote our division. Because division keeps them out of the firing line.

I can’t express how dumb they are to say such things after leaving hell holes.
That said, when we start to let the government go against speech, we’ll ultimately feel the effects.
Death to America isn’t necessarily a direct threat, nor is wishing someone dead. While immature and likely to put yourself under a watchful eye, it’s just saying you wish the end to someone or something.
So if we say you shouldn’t be able to say you wish death to someone or your own nation, a lot of people on the internet will be swept up. There’s no difference with saying something in public or online IMO.
And look at Jan 6th, a riot that the government declared an insurrection attempt. All because we allowed the government to crack down on rights with things like the patriot act and going after “terrorism”.
People loosely throw around the term terrorist and treason, and are surprised when the lines get blurred.
So if we say it’s illegal to say death to America. What happens to the people who say that the establishment needs to be brought down? What about people who say a civil conflict might erupt if we don’t get our current leaders?
It doesn’t take long for them to move the goal posts.
I don’t like radical Muslims. I don’t like Nazis. Both should have free speech though, if I don’t advocate to their right to free speech, I don’t advocate for my own.
