Why are they not charging Abbott with kidnapping? This is clearly kidnapping.

I filed a police report against them and got taken down by 2 dozen cops who shut down three square blocks to do so and ransacked my place. Spent two days in solitary before seeing a judge who, none the wiser of what LAPD had done, wiped my entire criminal record clean. LA cops, lawyers, and more were dog whistling their support, informing about new surveillance intricacies and how to proceed without raising alarms. They didn't want to, but said they had to follow up to satisfy the little Hitlers.

Garland's new policy on political threats, I think, is a major blow to conservatives, because they are more prone to self incrimination, impulsive escalation, and emotional reasoning. The fact it's now a felony is a big deal; they are being brought to heel; it's realpolitiks and I'm here for it. I know a man in New York got pinched yesterday for threatening MTG, but people with no priors used to be really powerful. Now, not so much.

Abbott and Desantis are cutting off the nose to spite the face and each stunt is just another truckload of evidence--sometimes literally. Tying the misleading brochures to the leaders is critical. Conservatives also are unaware of how far reaching digital forensics can be. If you think the repudiation of fascism will end with the downfall of MAGA, you've got another thing coming. And it's going to look a lot like Nuremberg.

Is this some kind of copypasta? I'm all for accountability but this sounds... excessive and dramatic.

I have proof, I've been fighting for years. Every charge, every hospital stay, every police report. People are going to systematically charge every maga adjacent over the next 2 decades, and RICO laws will adapt. It's okay to be scared, just leave the fighting to the fighters lol.

Edit: the excessiveness was because they thought I was building a bomb when in reality I was just programming and tinkering with electronics. They had to shut down the Park, the elementary school and evacuated 1000+ people because Ron DeSantis' people took exception and demanded it.
