Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. 

Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

Video taken prior to his murder shows Alex Pretti peacefully observing, but an ICE officer begins shoving him. Then multiple ICE officers gang up on him. Moments later, his body is riddled with bullet holes.

On the year anniversary week of Trump in office for a second time, we seem to have literal death squads patrolling the streets of Democratic-run cities. But sure it was all Trump Derangement Syndrome when some of us were warning about the impending fascism back in 2024. 🤷🏽‍♂️😡

OMG. "DHS said the episode began after a man approached Border Patrol agents with a handgun and they tried to disarm him. But footage from the scene shows the man was holding a phone in his hand, not a gun, when federal agents took him to the ground and shot him." www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Saving Private Ryan is on the TV just now. I always find it very moving but it’s especially heartbreaking now. So many brave Americans of that great generation gave everything fighting fascism and I can only imagine how they would feel now.

The US government and supporters are sharing videos of the shooting that clearly show the Ice agent is guilty but posting these as if proving their innocence. This is a deliberate show of force. "Look, our followers will defend us despite all evidence. Facts won't help you." That is the message.

The US empire can’t keep the lights on, can’t deliver healthcare, can’t stop mass shootings, can’t pass a budget without hostage-taking—yet it claims a mandate to “fix” other societies with bombs. That’s not governance; that’s imperial malpractice dressed up as “responsibility.”

Trump pulls US out of 66 international bodies, including key UN climate treaty
President’s order suspends support for UNFCCC climate framework, UN population agency and other entities The Trump administration will withdraw from dozens of international organizations, including the UN’s population agency and the UN treaty that establishes international climate negotiations, as the US further retreats from global cooperation. Donald Trump on Wednesday signed an executive order suspending US support for 66 organizations, agencies and commissions following his instructions for his administration to review participation in and funding for all international organizations, including those affiliated with the UN, according to a White House statement on social media.

Under the Treason Felony Act 1848, it is a crime punishable by life imprisonment to intimidate parliament or encourage any foreign power to invade the U.K. We should be applying this law to every traitor openly calling for the U.S to depose our democratically elected government.
