I’d like to report a crime happening in DC right now. The suspects are an Orange Clown and his posy of lawbreakers. They were last seen at the capital and the White House

In case you haven't figured it out, Trump is putting all these gold furnishings in the White House and making federal police permanent in DC because he has zero plans of leaving. These new permanent federal police will basically be his King's guard. He is fortifying his Castle.

JM Keynes wrote about the paradox of poverty. (Poverty in the midst of plenty) His solution was for govt to provide jobs and housing. Trump's is to arrest the homeless. Fascism is nasty men with nasty motives telling us they're helping us.

Setting the table to use violent and deadly force against protesters...and then spread to other cities to gain control at military like level without deployment military...hence circumvents constitution guardrails for military domestically...

"At one intersection, a minor traffic accident between a car and a moped brought at least two dozen agents running, some wearing masks and one carrying a rifle. Local D.C. Metropolitan police were also on scene." If Trump's goal is to turn LE into a laughing stock, he is succeeding.

AI taking our Jobs is the least of our problems ***All of us should be terrified at the thought of AI being incorperated into our military*** Imagine automated guns that are simply told to shoot someone, and than they do. No reason. No remorse. Just following the orders of rich men. SHARE THIS.

An update on the Battle for LA, Against masked kidnappers, parading around as untrained, "Federal Agents". Share this. Show it to the friends and family who need to see it. We are required to be journalists, political analyists, ethics oversight, and the last line of defense for our democracy.

This shows how scared Trump is. They know Americans are coming for them. Their policies are terrible for USA. We're not going to sit around and let this cult take over America. They're Scared!! They should be!

If that fascist dictator wants DC to be placid, well guess what! Repost this please! The rally in D.C. to protest the Trump regime’s attempted takeover of the city has begun. Follow @freedcproject.bsky.social and learn more at bit.ly/free-dc-our-home.

Please help disseminate the following stats on how very far reduced is all crime in DC. A couple of anecdotes about white victims mean *nada*. For one thing, because the city is only 39% white.

Drump is deploying the National Guard in DC because he doesn’t want any more protests. He will say that the protest are illegal and order the National Guard to disperse them by any means necessary. He’s doing this because he knows how unpopular his policies are and he doesn’t care.

DC resident here. Nobody who lives here wants this or thinks we need this. I am sure even Trump know we don’t need this, though he obviously wants to exert his authoritarian muscle.

Ok but what about the Epstein files? Most law abiding peeps would not like shooting Americans for the whims of a pedo. It’s now imperative that the files are released so everyone knows the truth, right???

"Contrary to the president's claim, preliminary year-to-date crime comparisons from Washington’s Metropolitan Police Department show that overall crime in D.C. has decreased by 7% since last year, with violent crime down 26% and property crime reduced by 5%." - ABC News

The media is happily presenting this as if it’s a normal thing. You’re all just presenting his excuse for doing this in your headlines. No one is pressing him or his admin about how his entire basis for this is lies.
