This week, a group of activists in Texas got DECADES of prison time for their roles in an alleged “antifa” plot. Today I tried to get into the weeds here a bit so we can get our heads around what these recent lawsuits and sentencings mean for activists on the ground.

    I really wish yoo hadn't moved until after the election. We have a gubernatorial primary coming-up and we need to people to start talking about how Amy Klobuchar would effectively be just as bad for MN as any republican so that she doesn't get the democratic nomination.

    Hey Leeja, hope all is well in your new home. I’m enjoying a beer from your home town, modist brewing out of Minneapolis. Located at 505 north 3rd street. Please keep fighting the good fight!

    No wonder you left to Ireland 😮 You'd probably be labeled a terrorist organizing a communist overthrow of the demented idiot in office 😅

    Hope all is well with you and you continue speaking up for a sane America. The rest of us left here need your great content 🙏

    There is no doubt that there is already a chilling effect with the spectre of harsh punishment for anyone who deviates from the regime's viewpoints. It is a sad day in America. It is not the land of the free with trump in office.

    There is an outright traitor in office and there is no one brave enough to challenge him.

    America under Trump and MAGA are fucked….America's name is ruined globally….other than a few MAGA loyalist's outside of America…America's name is rubbish….No one cares anymore about America….MAGA has been very vocal about how they hate anyone who is not a white, straight, cis gendered American born Christian National…America is pathetic.

    The "Land of the Free" where planting a pipe bomb gets you a pardon but graffiti makes you a terrorist. The US is cooked. It is run purely for the benefit of special interests. Will enough people ever wake up from their false consciousness, from their brainwashing to realise and to take some action?

    13:00 but they were just concerned patriots or whatever bs they called them, they would Never be a danger to democracy, directly trying to overturn an election is something completely different, somehow.

    If anarchists aren’t stupid, why did they bring their phones with their whole signal chat history???
    If it was “just a book club,” then how did property get damaged?
    This piece is incredibly biased, naive and misleading—I’ll assume best intentions by considering it misinformation instead of disinformation, but you missed the mark by a long shot.

    Anybody who continues to delude themselves that Trump isn't a Hitlerite needs to understand these activities comes straight from the Nazi playbook. Hitler ascended to power by demonizing and crushing leftist opposition by using the law as well as rhetoric. Just yesterday, Trump called the winners of three New York Congressional primaries "Communists". These executive orders invoke the terms "leftist", "antifa", and "Communist" as part of setting the stage of who is the "Anti-American". Not the fascists of the Trump Regime, but those who oppose them and their tactics.

    We are already well down the fascist path, but the biggest tell of what will be tolerated comes with the confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General. There's no way Blanche should be elevated to this position. In fact, instead of Blanche fighting for this role, he should be fighting to not be disbarred. If he's confirmed by the Senate, the game is up, and I fully expect the Trump Regime to begin to ignore court orders based on Blanche's imprimatur as the holder of that office and the groveling pig willing to put his name on the most specious, non-Constitutional actions.
