      I like your energy but highly unconstitutional and a bit of overkill.

      Realistically what they need to do is start arresting the Texas national guard leadership, that’ll take them down a notch, no leadership, no coordination, no more opposition.

      Honestly this. Let them “rise up” and see how American they feel against the rest of the US army… Assuming the army doesn’t turn on us too. Ya never know these days eh 🙃

    Seeing how history repeating itself is doing so from multiple centuries at one time. If you are a leftist, then you NEED to be arming yourself and making efforts to join orgs/groups of comrades. The far-right and the constantly enabling centrists are doing the same song and dance done before the Civil War and all of the Red Scares. They don’t wish to fight the rich elites/capitalists that profit from the constant repeating of history and gaslighting the masses. They are going to welcome fascism as their methods of keeping power. It is the centrists/moderates that allowed Nazi Germany to happen. It is the centrists/moderates that allowed slavery and segregation to stay around. They are what allowed child labour and complete disregard for workers’ safety and health to continue. They want you to just ignore it all and tune-out (unless it serves them to call attention for their political theatre). We keep us safe!

    I hope they’re just being assholes. That’s not unbelievable.

    Part of me wonders what they are hiding. They’ve been pretty proud of atrocities at the border before. Again, I hope they’re just being assholes.

    Sounds good to me. If the federal government isn’t gonna do its job and protect our borders, it falls on the states to take up that mantle.
