Let me see... #UnaffordableHousing, cuts to #FoodAid and #Medicaid. But hey, #Unhoused folks are the ones responsible for being poor?!! What's next? #SoylentGreen dump trucks to scoop up folks?! #HungerGames? We all know where this way of thinking leads...
#Trump’s #Military #Crackdowns Are Only Going to Get Worse
#LA and #DC are only the beginning, as the president’s team has been drawing up plans to unleash federal forces in other Democratic strongholdsTricia McLaughlin, #DHS on Faux News: “You look at #LosAngeles, #Chicago, #Boston, and #NewYork — they’re also facing record numbers of homicides and violent crimes. It’s natural for us to look at Washington, D.C. — if we can really clean this up and we can get rid of this plague of crime and violent activity that’s happening in our nation’s capital — could that be a blueprint and a model for other communities around the country? It’s something I think President Trump wouldn’t shy away from. We’ll have to stay tuned.”
By Asawin Suebsaeng, Ryan Bort
August 13, 2025Excerpt: "Rolling Stone reported in October 2024 that Trump and his team have been plotting a second-term takeover of the D.C. police for a long time — regardless of the actual level of unrest or street crime. The plotting extends far beyond the nation’s capital.
In recent months, according to government officials and other sources with knowledge of the situation, administration staff and lawyers have crafted detailed plans and menus of options for Trump to feed his desire for replicating and proliferating his militarized crackdowns — on #immigrants and #citizens alike — to different Democratic strongholds."National Guard troops are already mobilizing in D.C., and Trump has privately said, according to two sources familiar with the matter, that if he sees something that he feels crosses his line (like if street protests in the city grow too big or if he deems them a threat suddenly), he will gladly order larger numbers of troops to nation’s capital, as he did in Los Angeles earlier this year.
"Trump has insisted to administration officials that it’s ridiculous that troops like National Guard members are not allowed to conduct various forms of domestic law enforcement, sources add. The president and his administration to some extent have had their hands tied on this due to the #PosseComitatus Act — which prohibits using the military for domestic law enforcement — though that isn’t stopping them from actively exploring ways around the law. 'There are ways things were done, and that’s not always going to be how they should be done now or tomorrow,' a senior Trump administration official tells Rolling Stone."

November 18 2024, 2:04 p.m."With #Israel’s war on #Gaza entering its second year, Khalaf is among thousands of students and faculty members still being targeted in universities’ battles over harsh #ProtestCrackdowns, #FreeSpeech, academic independence, and discrimination.
"The fights are playing out online, in campus quads, internal disciplinary proceedings, and in the courts. Organizers among the students and faculty say universities are retaliating against them for their #activism and restricting their #CiviLiberties and #FreedomOfExpression while claiming to uphold both.
"As campus protests reached their height in May, Dahlia Saba, a second-year Palestinian American graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, wrote an op-ed supporting the demonstrators’ demands. She called on the school to address calls to #divest from industries that profit from Israel’s war. She and her co-author Vignesh Ramachandran, another graduate student, were met with student nonacademic disciplinary investigations that relied solely on the op-ed for evidence.
"'The university is threatening us with sanctions that could jeopardize our academic careers if we choose to speak out again,' Saba said. 'They’re low-level sanctions to begin with, but the university is pursuing sanctions against many people on very little evidence.'
"The issue is not so much the severity of the sanctions, Saba said, but using punishments to chill students’ speech. The disciplinary actions become a tool, she said, to help universities keep track of people involved in protests for #Palestine."
