I'm here in Mount Kisco, NY to tell Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the GOP
HANDS OFF AMERICA
Much of the focus on today's events will probably be the large rallies in big cities
But make no mistake
It is the smaller rallies
The local rallies
That will be the backbone of this movement
![Independent journalist Ken Klippenstein was just bustin’ with pride over his March 28 story: “New Rubio order (leaked to me) directs the State Department to spy on student visa holders and applicants [on] social media,” he posted on Bluesky and X. He got the buzz that he wanted with thousands of reposts, and presumably a traffic boost to his $100-a-year site.
If you had a sense of déjà lu, it’s probably because you’d already read this piece, titled “State Dept. demands ‘enhanced’ social media vetting of student visa applicants,” by Marisa Kabas, another independent journalist. Her story ran a full two days before Klippenstein’s. (And Kabas’s version was more authoritative and better-written.)
I reached out to Klippenstein via email, Signal, and social media, but he didn’t respond. Maybe at some point he will (leak his response to me).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ejihld4sywvvqwe67cdkn4jq/bafkreic2rysbe455afrbwslsw2n2bpzv6u4cxc4cqs5v4afl6vfo6w5d5i)
