This is not surprising, given the current state of the US. What's surprising is how fast they were able to turn on their own patriotic narrative to just become submissive to it all.

Cant they use jan6 as a counter example? How does bondis statement have credibility based on her Epstein performance. Did a quick read but doesn't this stuff lead to civil war?
State sponsored domestic terrorism 
Meanwhile pro-ICE protester/influencer Jake Lang got caught trying to pick up what he thought was a 15 year old girl.
Song faces a minimum of 20 years and a maximum of life in prison, according to the US attorney for the northern district of Texas. Arnold, Evetts, Morris, Rueda, Batten, Elizabeth Soto and Ines Soto each face between 10 and 60 years in prison. Sanchez Estrada faces up to 40 years.
Just out of curiosity, has the DOJ ever gotten around to charging anybody in the Epstein files other than Maxwell? Bc there's like millions of files.
Like even just one single pedophile? Just to make the streets a little safer? Surely if they can make all this complete bullshit stick they can make something from those files stick, right?
I'm sure they're more than motivated and will be getting around to it soon. It's only been 14 months and they probably just got a little distracted.
They had to take care of the much more dangerous members of a made up organization. Now that that's all cleared up and out of the way, I'm sure the hammer of justice will be swift for all those names that show up over and over again in those files....
Nope.
A few have faced professional consequences, but that's it
The prosecutor said, "They're here because they ambushed a cop." WTF?!?! Well then, on Jan 6th a mob of fucking MAGA terrorists ambushed a lot of police officers.
If they are going to process you as terrorist anyway, then you might as well make moves that are worthy of the label. After all the only real difference between a freedom fighter and terrorist is the narrative.
Jein. There's also the problem that antifa believers generally have universal morals, such as killing is bad.
Huh? I read here constantly about killing Nazis, meaning law enforcement and republicans.
We killed a whole bunch of Nazis about 80 years back and that worked out pretty well
Well akshually - as a German who paid attention in history class:
- killing Nazis was an act of necessary self-defense to accomplish anything. A precondition, if you will
- what worked out pretty well was the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Plan and especially the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denazification - I will be forever grateful to the Allied Forces for getting this right. It made Germany the least fascist nation in Europe for well over 60 years.
The long lasting effects were not permanent, unfortunately. I might like to ask for another allied victory over Nazi Germany soonish, with a new Denazification. Except there are no "Allied Forces" left that stand against Nazism :( And I am not trying to be dramatic, this is actually fucking with me for the past 10 years or so.
Well actually, we were kind of hoping that you guys might gang up and save us from our lunatic this time
I mean, it won't be long before we are utterly defenseless.
Agreed.
Whatever side you're on, this is worrisome. Today it's Antifa, tomorrow it's the Tea Party etc.
Weapons can be repurposed as new parties take power endlessly until finally some sane group of souls has the decency to legislate away malicious prosecutions based on politics.
US has been doing the exact same shit to leftists ever since the founding of USSR, this is not new. Sadly the tea party people have nothing to worry about.
The "tea party" are the people running the country right now.
Voting Republican supports terrorism and that’s okay so can we drop the dramatics and call the charges out for what they really are? They inconvenienced rich people.


There shouldn't be a law against terrorism. Real terrorism already involves serious crimes (murder etc.). There should not be a law defining "being a terrorist" as illegal.
"found guilty of support for terrorism" is bullshit.
If the bill of rights is not applicable, they are beyond laws.
The rules are made up and the points don't matter.
Do you think they classified the IRGC as a terrorist organization so that they can have a pretense for going after critics of the war?
Only seems that way because the real terrorists are running the system
This is now going to be imposed nationwide. It's inevitable at this point. And don't blather on about We The People rising up in revolution. That's impossible in a postindustrial society.
When being against fascism gets you charged as a terrorist, you live in a fascist regime.
And all those concentration camps they're building aren't just for immigrants.
Even if they were, it would count.
Yeah, if they were "just for immigrants" they wouldn't be any less bad. They're horror made real either way, which is the main reoccurring reality of what's happening.
A police officer arrived on the scene shortly after and drew his weapon at one of the people allegedly doing vandalism. One of the protesters was standing in the woods with an AR-15 and hit him in the shoulder. The officer would survive.
Even this conviction is bullshit. The cop drew first. Song shot in defense of others.
The standards of ROE they hold fucking police officers to is absolutely fucked. They draw their weapons at the drop of a hat and fucking POINT a weapon at unarmed people all the fucking time. The second weapon safety rule is to NEVER point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot. IN A FUCKING WAR ZONE, a mfer could be cursing at you with a goddamn AK pointed at you and ROE say you still aren't justified to engage. If a cop points a weapon directly at someone, that establishes intent by basic-ass weapons safety rules that these jackasses are supposed to be trained in. Charge all cops with attempted murder that point weapons at unarmed people. And I mean that unironically, pass a law and everything. They can't keep getting away with escalating all these situations so fucking often that people feel the need to arm themselves and put on body armor just in case they run across a cop. And if these baby-bitch cops can't be trusted with firearms, how about we take their fucking guns and arm minorities instead. At least minorities in America actually have a reason to fear for their lives enough to arm themselves.
It's interesting how there are more dead protesters than police forces.
They pointed to the fact that the demonstrators took steps to prevent their cell phones from being tracked.
Prosecutors also pointed to the way that the protesters used Signal, a widely-used messaging application, as evidence of their coordination and conspiracy. The protesters used pseudonyms on the app and had messages autodelete, an increasingly common practice among protesters and journalists who are concerned about government surveillance. They also emphasized the defendants were wearing all black during the protest, sometimes describing it as “tactical” gear.
That just describes my normal non-protest day. The fuck is this?
The Epstein class wants to "protect the children" through mandatory ID and E2EE bans, if you don't support the Epstein class then you're a terrorist
another rule of fascism, always accuse your opposition as terrorist, so that your Peblian support remains strong.
