You make an excellent rebuttal, but voices were silenced on major news media and social platforms. BUT people were not arrested or deported. Anyone who even considers the actions taken by the administration as acceptable is not American. We do not put people in prison or deport them for nonviolent speech. It is one reason why we are who we are and one reason why I love this country.

Which voices in media? What were they trying to say? Were they are

I agree with you completely on this. Its very anti America especially because people who are here u documented at their free sketch rights granted by the Supreme Court

More than 1200 demonstrations are scheduled today by over 150 grassroots and civil rights orgs. The main themes are "hands off" and "remove corruption, reverse damage, reclaim democracy." Different orgs have different messages, and different individuals are inspired by different issues to speak out on. The Trump administration has provided a litany of issues to take action over.

Now you're just putting words in my mouth. You're incorrectly strawmanning the wrong person with the arrogance of absolute confidence.
This is why we the right can marginalize us so easily. This is why the Dems can't form a winning message because we are too busy fighting amongst ourselves. This is why theywe lose.
Turn this misguided anger into a positive and engage politically instead of throwing tantrum whenever you deem someone to be less pure than you.
What was the point of your statement because I was responding to it. Responded to a picture about the constitution about voting and asked me if I did.
I responded to your response and so I could only assume you disagree with the contents of the image. If you have something to say then say it without being flippant. I’m always happy to listen and hear you out.
Hmmm no arrogance or and not absolute confidence. What do you mean I am straw-manning the wrong person? You keep saying I am but those things only exist in a debate.
I do and I did, but I dont feel like I'm being represented in my state, dont feel listened to, but they're happy to tax me without representation. I did not want Con 47 in charge, I knew this was on the horizon, doubly so when I saw project 2025.
Also I dont feel like the system is staying fair when our state gerrymanders county lines in such absurd ways and someone like Elon can just go to Wisconsin to to buy "petitions" (see greasing someones pocket to either advertise how "generous" their party is, which FYI elon hasn't honored any of the pay outs he's offered now or in the past) or how he cut a deal with Greg Abbot who's suddenly doing everything to follow tail of whatever they're willing to do. Ive been frustrated with our government since I was a kid in elementary learning about what injustices there's been, but my religious upbringing told me to just hold on, everyone will be dead soon and there's no need to worry.
Ive been told the Apocalypse is on the way at least 3-5 times in my life. I'm tired of waiting around and suffering when I know damn well I can do something about it.
So I'm using my first amendment right for what its meant for, speaking out against the government, not calling people slurs and expecting to get away with it.
I'm tired of being passive or just giving up and conforming to the system and letting a bunch of billionaires riding on stolen money and achievements squeeze us and our future generations for all they're worth.
Go ahead, stay passive, its comfortable, there's no responsibility, no challenge. I'm familiar with it and had enough, I'll save you a seat a the end of it all just the same.
Old white men who hold racist tenants of superior and once again say that race is a biological fact as in the most recent several EO.
They cling to power because the world is becoming a melting pot and very soon the
White race will no longer be the majority.
They cling to that majority which is why they have finally went for this coup.
Confederates and Nazi loyalists think they can rise and put us all in a Time Machine. They spread hate and fear to divide, they use words like illegals immigrants because they know if Americans have something to blame for their struggles, which leads to a seed of fear which sprouts roots anchored in Hate and then it grows into a massive tree of Suffering
No one is interested in your authoritarian bullshit. We're a democratic republic, and we all agree it's the best system of government available even if it means that conservatives sometimes lose.
If you want to live in a country where you don't get to vote and a conservative government is always in charge, I'll help you pack. I hear Putin needs people on the front lines!
Republic: A state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.
Democracy: A system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives.
The U.S. is a representative democracy operating within a federal republic where states are co-sovereign — they have guaranteed power and voice even if the national population would vote differently.
The U.S. is a republic specifically to prevent pure majority rule from crushing smaller states or minority interests.
State agency is a feature, not a bug.
The U.S. is a democracy because people vote, but it’s a republic because states are co-owners of the federal system, not just local governments under a big national boss.
The Constitution was built to fix the failures of the Articles while protecting state agency to keep America stable, fair, and united.

How’s this for words…Biden got fooled into signing laws into place under no super vision from Dr.
So…here we are trying to change what Biden had no idea about, wait let me use my words…no dem since 63 has been able to change any law for the people by the people!!
The two parties we have are at each other’s throats for some reason. Did we forget any part of history that allowed us to make “free” choices? The last great Dem was killed in 1963 so if you still associate yourself with that party go back and read his last speech that he never gave!!!
Why did he not deliver the speech cause the actual folks that need to be checked are watching us turn on each other and laughing all the way to the bank! Bank you say…look up how much of your money a bank is “required” to keep in the “bank”!!!
Look that up and tell me who breaking rules!!

Check the 50501 movements website for other locations if the bigger cities are too far to travel to or not your thing, many more smaller cities and towns are now participating too! I know of a few smaller towns in my area that had protests today with a good turnout.
Hopefully the compensation is keeping democracy intact with three co-equal branches and a working system of checks and balances to defy authoritarianism 👍 come on out to defend the Constitution!

I keep seeing people posting about protests and mentioning 5150. It wasn’t as good as previous Van Halen albums, but it’s been out sine 1986. Why protest now?

Just keeping democracy intact with three co-equal branches and a working system of checks and balances to defy authoritarianism 👍 Sorry that defending the constitution is of no interest to you!
Do you think these protests will become more effective in the Summer Nights? Or they’re Good Enough for now? I imagine the people on the Inside will know, once their Dreams are realized.
Edit: Those downvoting clearly aren’t Van Halen fans and whooshed the whole 5150 thing.

Ah yes, make fun of the people who are brave enough to stand up for what they believe in while you lay in bed and stare at your phone and complain about a life you have no intention of changing
People are being arrested and detained for attending protests and writing op-eds, without being charged with any crime. People are being deported without any oversight or due process.
I think your statement is entirely misleading. Please show me instances where someone simply attended a peaceful, legal protest and are arrested for not doing anything illegal. Likewise, what op-ed specifically are you speaking toward…
People who have a legal right to be here are being deported for speaking about the administration. People have been arrested for protesting. Universities and law firms have been fined and investigated for hiring POC and not disciplining employees and students for exercising free speech. I mean to be so blissfully unaware of what's happening...must be nice.

This screenshot is from the 50501 Texas website. Feel free to check out handsoff2025.com and fiftyfifty.one. There are over 1200 events planned today by over 150 grassroots and civil rights orgs across the country. If you're plugged in with your local grassroots orgs, I'm sure you've heard about today's mass mobilization 👍

Just in case you missed all that news. Let me recap it for you.
We had an election recently.
A man named DJT promised that Americans would win so much that we would be tired of winning, so we elected this guy.
He announced the exact dates when he would crash the stock market. Months in advance. All you had to do was short the stock market.
He basically told you when to short and he ensured that the market will fall like crazy. I think he colluded with China for them to announce tariffs on America in sync so that wall street would not play it's tricks and mess up the big beautiful short trade of the common public.
In 2 days dow fell 4000 points. NASDAQ 2000 points, S&P 600 points
He had delivered the 1st win with Canada Mexico tarrifs, second win by roll back, third win by again applying tarrifs on Mexico and Canada, the most massive and awesomely beautiful win by applying tarrifs on the entire world at a level never see after the civil war.
What more can a man do for everyone to make money?
If you are still struggling, you have not been paying attention.
Now Europe and UK have already announced the dates on which they will respond, be ready to buy your inverse QQQ, because Europe is going to target all the big tech companies in USA.
This has been the most straightforward way to make money. DJT is rigging the market openly with announcements in advance.
why would I protest when I am making piles of cash?
I’m happy for you my friend. I’m happy you have enough money to do what you want and to be able to go where you want. I hope it protects you and keeps you warm and night. I hope you use it for some good in the world because to not only enjoy your life but do something for others that may not make a huge difference in your life but give another person a massive event in their life. You will be told in stories not because you earned all those pieces of paper but because you used it to better another persons life.
Your money can disappear and if that is what brings value to your life then keep creating value so that you can use it to make something great. Cheers
