#TonePolicing is the same as #weaponizing #politeness to shut up #MarginalizedVoices. Fuck #civility when my comrades are being vilified, jailed, murdered & targeted by #fascist state authorities for simply existing & trying to obtain some social #justice. Fuck politeness.

This #criminal #administration led by the #felon #rapist in the #WhiteHouse needs to go. #MAGA vermin were #projecting when they said #weaponizing #DOJ. And all of this to help a known #antisemite? These #thugs belong in #prison.

She said Justice Department leaders tried as recently as Friday night to intimidate her into silence by dispatching armed deputy marshals to her house to deliver her a letter warning her against testifying, though she was able to forestall the arrival of the officers at her home.

“The letter was a warning to me about the risks of testifying here today. But I am here because I will not be bullied into concealing the ongoing corruption and abuse of power at the Department of Justice," Oyer said.

A Justice Department spokesperson did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment on Oyer's testimony. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has previously dismissed Oyer's statements as inaccurate, without elaborating. The department attempted to invoke executive privilege to prevent Oyer from telling Congress about the circumstances of her departure.

So much for #Trump and the #maga #Trumplicans supporting free speech and the #FirstAmendment. They are defiling the very essence of this country and #weaponizing our law institutions. They are hunting down those who speak against their ideology like other #fascist and #nazi governments. And just like in those countries, they have groups of #traitors that are turning in fellow Americans. We have turned a corner and are proceeding down the road to a fascist and #totalitarian state.

There's a great article up by @cwarzel in The Atlantic about The Gleeful Cruelty of the White House X Account. It's a scary but thoughtful analysis of a grim societal trend, focusing specifically on how intensification is implemented via the ex-bird site, lately a cesspool of distilled toxicity from which many still regularly feed.

ESPECIALLY the part in Warzel's article about ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) made me shudder. The article is worth reading for that part alone.

(His post at BlueSky, which I've linked below, has what I think may be a gift link.)

So when is #Trump going to #prioritize helping #Americans and stop implementing #project2025 and #weaponizing the #doj and #fbi. #inflation is growing with higher grocery, housing, and fuel prices. He said he could fix this on day 1. It's been days and he is dicking around with stuff that can and should wait.

Liz Hoffman: "In recent weeks, #Musk has essentially done a #hostile #takeover of the US #government.

@hannu_ikonen What you are seeing is Conservative and pro-Israel groups #weaponizing #policeviolence and #Politicalpressure on #university #administrators aimed at #trampling on #student's #constitutionalrights.

They are using pro-#genocide #propaganda and #misinformation to try to shape the public narrative.

I also wouldn't be surprised if Russia wasn't involved somewhere in there by fomenting discord in the US to distract from their actions in Ukraine.

@VOANews

OK but when are they going to address the #CallsComingFromInside?

#Weaponizing the #FBI for #PoliticalGains?

#Assholetrump #Weaponizing the #FBI better fucking be in the trial... with exactly

#WHY
#WHEN
AND FUCKING #WHERE

Along with what systems will be put in place to prevent #PERSONALIZING and #Tailoring the #FBI to suit your needs on a whim and create chaos for innocent Americans.
#Motherfuckers running things your own way.

I want to see the face of who was pushing the buttons and laughing while it was being done.

"Repeat after us: #Weaponizing #womenhood against other #women is #whitesupremacist #patriarchy at work," the post from #NOW said. "Making people believe there isn't enough #space for #trans #women in #sports is #whitesupremacist #patriarchy at work."
