A small photo on page 1, with a reference to page 19 where you'll find a meh write up about something or other happening. No reference to or pictures of hundreds of thousands of people gathering. Disgusting. Our local news was much better.

How's everyone else's local coverage?

I saw three pretty large protests today around where I lived. Guess who showed up and gave the biggest display of support? Boomers.

As a millennial, I apologize for talking so much shit. Yall have done this before. You stood up in the 60s and 70s and here you are again, when we need it. Mad respect and thank you.

They’re pro

Edit: Shameless plug for the Mayday Movement since Booker keeps mentioning how it really is up to citizens. Impeach, convict, and remove. https://linktr.ee/maydayprotest

So this is cool! Happening on the senate floor.

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ): "I rise with the intention of getting in some good trouble, I rise with the intention of disrupting the normal business of the United States Senate for as long as I am physically able. I rise tonight because I believe sincerely that our country is in crisis..."

Full quote from the livestream a few minutes ago:

"I was challenged by my own constituents to do something different, challenged by my own constituents to do something, challenged by my own constituents to take risks."

Keep calling your Democratic representation, if you have any. Keep pushing them to make the changes we need--like changing our congressional leadership--when they drag their feet, and thank them when they move in the right direction. Believe it or not, many of these people do care what their constituents care enough to repeatedly, consistently contact them about.

Yes, this is ultimately a performative action. But at a time when so many are complying in advance, public officials standing up and setting an example is important.

It's mostly the timing. I had a post go viral yesterday laying out the steps of the authoratarian playbook and my own experience with it from China and experiencing tianamen square. YT link is on my profile, but it's Instagram that really blew up.

And today I get notified that my TTP or global entry has been revoked with no real reason listed. I "do not meet the requirements."

This feels like retaliation and intimidation. It feels like an easy lever they can pull, so they pulled it.

The timing is just so suspect.

Also, it is real. I went to the trusted traveler/global entry website, it's a .gov domain, logged in using the secure.gov login server and used my app 2fa. The letter stating my status has been revoked is in the notifications there, you can see it in the video the 3 notifications, when i was granted provisionary, then i had my interview and granted full, then the revocation letter.

I been saying tyranny is here but it's still surreal to experience it first hand. If anyone knows lawyers or such i can contact, let me know please.

It does look like people's TTP get pulled randomly for obscure reasons. So it could be coincidence, but, the timing seems very suspect. And I haven't done anything that would warrant it being pulled as far as I am aware.

We had a great turnout today at the Courthouse in Boonville, IN despite the rain! The final count was 37 people 🎉 which is a HUGE deal for our area especially with it being such a MAGA area!

We got a ton of support from the community with lots of honking & waving, one person saw the protest and decided to join in, and several pulled over into parking spots to ask questions about the protest and get more information about how to get involved!!

Only had a couple negative comments (why is get a job always the go to 🤦‍♀️ its a Saturday!) so overall a huge success!!

That’s the way to do it America.

Boycotts are slowly working. I live near one of the big amazon warehouses in Baltimore. Drove by there today during rush hour, the employee lot was half empty, it used to be so full they street parked. No trucks waiting to be unloaded, none waiting to get in the docks (they used to jam up the street). Even half of the food trucks stationed on the street nearby left!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💙💙💙
