Crockett: "I need people of color to understand that the scheme of the Republicans has consistently been to make sure that they mute our voices. I fully anticipate that's where they are going with this map."
Emil Bove said under oath that he never ordered DOJ lawyers to blow off Judge Boasberg's order. That was a dodge. Erez Reuveni showed smoking gun proof that Bove ORDERED DHS to ignore Boasberg's order. www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/15/o...
ICE is now the largest law enforcement agency in the country. Democratic governors, mayors, and lawmakers have the power to stop secret police tactics like abductions by masked ICE agents: https://www.bluestatedefiance.org/no-secret-police
This is not the act of a legitimate government.

"...get rid of electronic voting machines ahead of the 2026 midterm elections." Again, they're doing everything they can to pre-determine the outcome of elections. Everything.

Oops. Forgot. Will add now.
@mysturji Or to stop being so negative/pessimistic.

@mysturji ugh, being Australian and screaming into the void on this hurts.

Literally every method of resisting I give receives "I don't want to break the law"

@mysturji

@mysturji

People on Twitter in 2015 telling me to stop calling Republicans Nazis.

And when I say "people," I mean Democrats and Republicans.

Democrats: "We're so much better than they are, don't stoop to their tactics." (cf. Luthen Rael)

Republicans: "How dare you!"

@mysturji stop underreacting everyone.
