I live in Indiana where they also want to build a detainment camp. We just received instructions on what to do if LE comes for any of our uni students. Do i wish I was on the West Coast where I am originally from? Yes. But what happens when people like me who stand against fascism just leave?

Oh wow. That is a BIG move. Have heard the same from many people. People want off the chaos treadmill and out of the rat race of having to have two jobs to make ends meet. I hope it works out for him and a better quality of life awaits 💗.

Pentagon plans military deployment in Chicago as Trump eyes crackdown. Military officials are sketching out a plan that could deploy a few thousand National Guard members, officials said. The use of active-duty forces has also been discussed. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

It isn’t going to work. There is hope if other states resist… the 19 red states have to stand down. We also have 25 blue states and 22 are the collective economic engine to the entire country.

There is going to be a boiling point when the generally apolitical wake up and realize what’s happening. We’re not there yet, but it’s percolating.

Temporary has a way of becoming permanent in fascist regimes with mission creep. Please do everything you can to get out the vote and shut this police state down! Blue 🌊 coming this November! 😊

I’m not saying it’s good. They’re being used to intimidate citizens in an over the top show of force. As we’ve seen from LA, they don’t have a clear mission and most of the time they stood around, bored out of their minds.

Well, here it is! Martial law. We knew it was coming. We warned of this before the elections in November. Many of the MAGA thought it was a great idea. Wait till they need to go to the grocery store at 9 PM and the curfew has been declared.

The list the article cited only includes red states. So, the intent is to send red state guard into blue states. Trump wants to provoke a civil war and divide us. Insanely stupid and destructive stuff.
