Over 300 arrests between Columbia and City College.
Extra judges being vanned in from New Jersey to help with the heavy volume of releasing prisoners this morning.

Biden announces he will forgive any fines that result, and 1,000 egg mcmuffins are being provided to all arrested as a humanitarian gesture.

Half those arrested in hamas support protests in Texas were not students at all, many were armed.

Some of the same organizers from Occupy Wall Street, BLM identified on campus in NY.

These are not college students demonstrating.

THIS is an insurrection.
Soros and Rockefellers are part of it and should be arrested and....uh.....dealt with by whateveris appropriate.

How can you fix a nation this dead, is what I'm asking.

It's quite sad what WE have allowed to happen.

WE lost one potus election in an abberation year.
WE look back to see what happened.

WE get out the vote, family, friends, co-workers.
WE get behind mail in ballots and set up "farms"
WE put up candidates for lesser offices that aren't idiots

WE don't give up.

We? I do not align myself with Democrats. I could count on my hands how many times I voted for a Democrat and I have probably voted 100 times or so. California had a lot of special elections.

OK, so I put this question to you and mind you that I am not suggesting that you personally ever did.

How many of you from New York voted for the likes of Charles Ellis Schumer even way back when he was only a lowly rep? People just do not get it, some get to be bigger roaches and multiply. Dead country, wake up and look at ground zero.

I think the term I would use is spineless. I am utterly baffled why all the misinformation and lies spread by Democrat politicians and their followers is not called out. What are they afraid of or are most of them lacking in knowledge to spot BS when they hear it?

Try going on Facebook/Meta or Google/Youtube and calling out anything that goes against the narrative.

Use certain keywords and they'll either take your content down or shadow-ban you.

If they take your content down you'll know it right away.

But if they shadow-ban you they'll leave your content up.

But the number of people who see your posted content will be a fraction of those who would otherwise see it had you not been shadow-banned.

You'll still see it, and chances are you won't even know what happened.

Now someone on the "acceptable" side of the narrative?

Their content gets elevated so EVERYBODY sees it.

Want to get your point across and still get seen?

Post your video on Rumble. It's great platform.

But your potential audience is a fraction of what it would otherwise be if Google/YouTube was actually about free speech instead of the appearance of free speech.

X or Twitter is better than before Musk bought it. But even there you still face having "anti-narrative" content taken down.

Brazil, France, and even Australia and New Zealand have recently started pressuring Musk to have content taken down.

The Supreme Court of Brazil recently introduced a new dynamic.

Historically, every Supreme Court was much like our Supreme Court.

They chose from among cases being appealed whether or not the issue was something they wanted to rule on.

Recently the Brazilian Supreme Court decided to go in a different direction.

Apparently, now it's ok for a Supreme Court Justice to pick an issue out of the blue - whether there's a case or not - whether the 'wrong' that needs to be righted happened in Brazil or the US - and rule on it by issuing a decree.

Stepping down off my soap box now,
