"The Secret Service came to my door today because of a tweet. No threats. No violence. Just words. That’s where we are now," she wrote on X in a thread about the ordeal.

She was asked about the comments she made online, and she made it clear, "I want to see their trials."

Calling for trials is a veiled threat? Fuck everyone involved with this administration.

    But without being able to see the tweets I don't really know what they said. Just someone else's description of what she said her intent was.

    I'm sure it's still not justified but if they started with "string them all up" or something it's a bit different.

    Just being picky about, you know, knowing what the actual details are.

    They are preparing for the pendulum. Once they've trashed cities and ripped apart families, they want to make sure anyone brave enough to hold them accountable is silenced.

    Do it in the fash social media town square with an identifiable name and they will. Do it here where only we will largely see and they won't care. Until the rest of the world and the United States wakes up and ditches these fascist platforms. The fascists will gleefully use them as easy surveillance and intimidation.

    One thing that Trump's 2nd term has made crystal clear is that pretty much all levels of law enforcement are just filled with bootlickers.

    Has there been even a case of one department or union siding WITH THE PEOPLE???

    Or are they all just authoritarian living assholes?

    We also need more liberals going into law enforcement, we've completely seeded those jobs to bullies and morons that get off on abusing power.

    You don't go into law enforcement thinking you won't be shooting someone in your career. You have to want to use force on people and abandon empathy for humans just trying to survive.

    Liberals are ill-equipped and it's antithetical to the left.

    A former buddy of mine joined local LE some years back. They tormented and hazed the hell outta him until he was forced to move to another precinct.
    And then it happened again.
    Nowadays, he toes the line and has a LOT of really worrying opinions on a lot of things, but he has the respect of his coworkers now.

    Well if somehow law and order stands when this fascist party falls from power. I want to see every congressmember, and white house seated posting tried for treason. If they voted for something or publicly supported something they knew was false or damning to the population, they should be found guilty. And since we haven't waved the death penalty, I think we should encourage them to remove it.

    If they approve the removal of green cards, we should remove all citizenship from their bloodline. It's what they want, take the trash out

    (Also yes, many Democrats will be found guilty as well, your votes should forever be public. You are a representative, a civil servant, you are supposed to be a slave to the population, not the other way around)

    Yep. Was it Marx — "There is no ethical consumption under capitalism"?

    Tangent but maybe not actually Marx:

    The phrase has been around in political circles and on the internet for decades, and it doesn’t appear to have a single originator. It is widely believed to be an amalgamation of ideas from Karl Marx, simmered down into a phrase that people can easily remember.

    Yes, probably just a bad choice of words on my part. More that I think we can identify with going through any bullshit motions just to satisfy some body somewhere, just to get by. But just not as a tool of the state to threaten citizens wellbeing. Fuck that shit.

    You and me both. Though I will say this. Those leaving, especially the attorneys won't be replaced so easily. Fighting from the inside still often entails carrying out the violence of the state. But if they could organize mass resignations as a show of solidarity. It would definitely do more good than a slow rotting. But not being a part of it is still good.

    Garbage article is garbage.

    In July 2022, about 18 months after Biden became president, a regional Secret Service office requested that agents conduct a “preliminary protective intelligence investigation” targeting the Maine man, an Army veteran, for one or more posts on Twitter.

    They then show the evidence sheet, and the guy was calling current or former phone numbers of Biden's family, and when he posted that response on Twitter, it was a reply to a post that said "what illegal things are you doing Friday night?"

    Keep in mind, that this is all shortly after a bunch of armed maga chuds tried to overthrow the country. So all in, we have repetitive antagonism through different means, making a specific threat, and a history of this kind of activity in the past.

    The whole article is based on documents that the Heritage foundation FOIA'd and released. I trust those guys even less that I trust the current government.

    No one was saying that they are the same. Every one you're referring to just wanted the Democrats to stand for something. Sorry being against genocide was too much to ask for. Now we are stuck in this and it's the fault of everyone behind the Harris campaign and those who supported it.

    Yeah, nearly everyone that voted Democratic wanted that, too. But some others decided to sit out/vote for someone else.
