âTheyâre licensed! Theyâre not allowed to do thatâ #Trump moaned
Let that sink in
Trump seeking to end #FreeSpeech clearly ignoring 1st Amendment of US #Constitution, which states
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or ...
They are allowed to do that. #Constitutionally
#DictatorTrump #dictatorship #authoritarian #liars #ComradeKrasnov
Critics fear crackdowns on free speech as Donald Trump escalating his campaign to reshaping the American media landscape. After late-night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel, will media companies manage to protect other media personalities expressing their First Amendment rights?
WTF!!! #DHS Tells #Police That Common #Protest Activities Are âViolent Tacticsâ
DHS is urging law enforcement to treat even #skateboarding and #livestreaming as signs of violent intent during a protest, turning everyday behavior into a pretext for police action.
By Dell Cameron, Jul 10, 202
"The #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity is urging local police to consider a wide range of protest activity as violent tactics, including mundane acts like riding a #bike or livestreaming a police encounter, WIRED has learned.
"WIRED has made this article free for all to read because it is primarily based on reporting from Freedom of Information Act requests [#FOIA]. Please consider subscribing to support our journalism.
"Threat bulletins issued during last monthâs '#NoKings' #protests warn that the US governmentâs aggressive immigration raids are almost certain to accelerate domestic unrest, with DHS saying thereâs a 'high likeliness' more Americans will soon turn against the agency, which could trigger #confrontations near federal sites.
"Blaming intense media coverage and backlash to the US military deployment in #LosAngeles, DHS expects the #demonstrations to 'continue and grow across the nation' as #protesters focused on other issues shift to #immigration, following a broad 'embracement of #AntiICE messaging.'
"The bulletinsâfirst obtained by the national security nonprofit #PropertyOfThePeople through public records requestsâwarn that officers could face assaults with fireworks and improvised weapons: #paint-filled fire extinguishers, smoke grenades, and projectiles like #bottles and #rocks.
"At the same time, the guidance urges officers to consider a range of #nonviolent behavior and common #ProtestGearâlike #masks, #flashlights, and #camerasâas potential precursors to violence, telling officers to prepare 'from the point of view of an adversary.'
"Protesters on #bicycles, #skateboards, or even 'on foot' are framed as potential 'scouts' conducting reconnaissance or searching for 'items to be used as weapons.' #Livestreaming is listed alongside '#doxxing' as a 'tactic' for 'threatening' police. Online posters are cast as ideological #recruitersâor as participants in 'surveillance sharing.'
"One list of 'violent tactics' shared by the Los Angelesâbased Joint Regional Intelligence Centerâpart of a post-9/11 fusion networkâincludes both protestersâ attempts to avoid identification and efforts to identify police. The memo also alleges that face recognition, normally a tool of law enforcement, was used against officers.
"Vera Eidelman, a senior staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union [#ACLU], says the government has no business treating #constitutionally protected activitiesâlike #observing or #documenting policeâas threats.
"#DHS did not respond to a request for comment."

#America has always been a bit "fascist" (feed by #racism)
Even so #Americans NEVER known a real #dictatorship
(they believe #freedom/#democracy are "#Constitutionally" guaranteed) đ¤Ł
Now that they have a real #Dictator a organized #kleptocratic #regime
believe that using #Democratic "means"
they can 'turn the table'. đ¤Ł
Americans are ... naĂŻve and unprepared
Still after all that has happened
they have NOT yet understood what they are facing
and talk about 'elections' đ
My first idea for the best person to be #Harris' #VP pick was #GavinNewsom b/c he defended #Biden, has high name recognition, and has been an effective advocate for Joe...
...but he and Harris are both from CA, which is #Constitutionally forbidden.
So my next best recommendation is Pete Buttigieg, who is an effective communicator, strong #Biden defender, and a frequent guest on #Fox that many #Conservatives actually like. #Buttigieg4VP
#SCOTUS
having accepted the case of 'Absolute Presidential immunity'
did not simply agree to consider a legal 'issue'
but rather
their verdict
will decide whether
#America will remain a #Democracy or become a #dictatorship
so long as'
if they decided in favor of 'absolute immunity'
they would #Constitutionally legalize the figure of the 'dictator'
(and their decision is final there is no appeal)
no 'we the people'
9 judges
of which 6 are Republicans
and at least 2 corrupted
(and MAGA).
