    🧵🧵Indivisible is definitely the ring leader of the Tesla Takedown domestic terrorism movement. They are the main organizers, they host the weekly calls to lay out their plans.

    Today was one of them. The call was one hour and ten mins and had some very interesting moments.

    I see that today all over their messaging it says nonviolent because of the charges that were brought by Pam Bondi so they seem a little spooked.

    Anyway, I listened to their entire organizing call for the 500 protests they are trying to organize for 3/29.

    Truly dystopian stuff.

    1. One of the speakers is a federal employee who belongs to the American Federation of Government Employees Union.

    For that that don’t remember, they are one of the six groups that teamed up on December 19, 2024, to take down Trump. Marc Elias launched Civil Service Strong. The press release calls the firm a coalition of civil society institutions and organizations, including 2.2 million federal government civil servants.

    She spoke on the call to rally protesters all across the country to make their voices heard.

    So I just connected Indivisible with Civil Service Strong because it’s all tied together.

    One of the most interesting parts of this one hour call was that Jasmine Crockett came on to speak because clearly she is part of this entire takedown Elon Musk apparatus.

      Over the next few days you’re going to see an organized progressional protest effort at Tesla stores put together by a group called Indivisible.

      George Soros foundation has given Indivisible nearly $8 million dollars for their “activism”.

      They’re calling these “Tesla takedown” events and they’re doing it in the midst of a domestic terror spree targeting Tesla and Tesla owners. They have these planned across the entire country. These images are just six examples.

      How can this not be seen as encouraging more violence and terrorism? I personally think that any violence occurring near locations they’ve chosen should result in Soros, his foundation, Indivisible and their founders being held criminally accountable as co-conspirators.

      The indivisible founders are Ezra Levin and his wife Leah Greenberg. They became “resistance” figures during Trump’s first term and their work is celebrated by elected Democrats. So yeah, it’s clear to me that the Democrats and their typical thugs are organizing this insanity.

      There’s reportedly even a form protest leaders can fill out to receive “reimbursement” payments for their protests.

  16. Just The News: “The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) on Thursday recommended that 68 bridges be evaluated for their risk of collapse, after a vessel crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge, causing it to collapse last year. 

    The recommendation comes the same day the board released a report that found the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore held a risk assessment that was 30 times greater than the acceptable risk threshold for critical or essential bridges, CBS News reported.

    The new call for a “vulnerability assessment” includes the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City, and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Florida. The total list includes bridges in 19 states.

    “Today’s report does not suggest that the 68 bridges are certain to collapse,” the report said. “The NTSB is recommending that these 30 bridge owners evaluate whether the bridges are above the [American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials’] acceptable level of risk.”

    The recommendation comes a year after the Baltimore bridge collapsed when a vessel crashed into it. The collapse killed six roadworkers after they fell into the Patapsco River.

    The NTSB did not give a specific deadline for the assessments, but NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy said the final report on the Baltimore bridge collapse will be released in the fall.”

  18. Just The News: “The United Kingdom (UK) on Thursday issued a rare updated travel advisory to residents hoping to visit the United States, warning them that there would be harsh consequences for British citizens in the U.S. who violate the country’s immigration laws.

    The warning comes as President Donald Trump cracks down on illegal immigration, including deporting migrants that are in the country illegally. The administration is largely focusing on migrants who commit other crimes outside of being in the U.S. illegally, but warned all illegal immigrants that they could be deported.

    The new advisory instructs all British travelers to comply with all “entry, visa and other conditions of entry,” instead of just informing residents that U.S. authorities “set and enforce entry rules,” Reuters reported.

    “You should comply with all entry, visa and other conditions of entry,” the advisory said. “The authorities in the US set and enforce entry rules strictly. You may be liable to arrest or detention if you break the rules.”

    The new advisory comes after British authorities said earlier this month that they were helping a British national who was detained in the U.S. Germany has also updated its travel advice after three citizens were detained trying to enter the U.S., per The Hill.

    The French government also revealed on Thursday that one of its citizens was allegedly refused entry on U.S. soil over his criticism of Trump’s policies, according to Politico. Just The News has not independently verified the claim.”

  19. Just The News: “The roommate and two brothers of Laken Riley’s killer, Jose Ibarra, are set to be deported after having pleaded guilty to having fake green cards and being sentenced for the crime.

    In February of 2024, Riley, a Georgia nursing student was killed by Ibarra, 27, who was an illegal immigrant. He was convicted of murder nine months later.

    On Wednesday, Ibarra’s brother, Diego Ibarra, 29, was sentenced to four years in federal prison and will be deported after he completes his sentence. He was taken into custody after he gave a police officer investigating Riley’ 2024 death a fake green card, according to the Justice Department. 

    The so-called “green card” is officially known as a Permanent Resident Card and allows an immigrant to live and work permanently in the United States.

    Ibarra’s other brother Argenis Ibarra, 25, and a former roommate, Rosbeli Flores-Bello, 29, also admitted to having fake green cards being investigated by agents, according to The Associated Press.

    Argenis and Flores-Bello both pleaded guilty to one count of possession of a fraudulent document in December 2024. On Wednesday, they were turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It is not known when they will be deported.”

  20. https://thehill.com/homenews/education/5206776-top-house-democrats-urge-mcmahon-trump-administration-to-reverse-decision-on-department-of-education/

    Our Take: Promises made, promises kept. The Department of Education is a failed experiment, and a look at the data proves that we should end it. As federal intervention and spending increases, performance decreases.

    Additional data points:

    • There has been a 280% increase in inflation-adjusted per-pupil spending since 1960, but NAEP test scores have remained flat (and declining in recent years).
    • The U.S. spends over $800 billion annually on K-12 education, yet ranks around 30th in math and reading (PISA rankings).
    • The Department of Education budget exceeds $80 billion, with a significant portion spent on bureaucracy rather than classrooms.
    • 41% of public school administrative costs are due to federal regulations (Heritage Foundation).
    • Non-teaching staff in K-12 schools grew by 700% since 1950, while student enrollment increased by only 100%.
    • Federal student loan policies contributed to a $1.7 trillion student debt crisis and tuition inflation (New York Federal Reserve).
    • School choice states (e.g., Florida, Texas, Utah) outperform many federally regulated states with lower per-pupil spending.

    The only arguments for keeping the Department of Education are emotional blackmail. The data shows negative ROI for everyone except the administrators.

  26. “A raging wildfire has once again forced the closure of Florida’s busy 18-Mile Stretch that provides the main link to the Florida Keys.  It’s the third straight day the main road has been shut down, creating a renewed headache for traffic attempting to get to or from the keys. 

    The fire has been burning in the southern Miami-Dade County area near the highway and ballooned to 24,000 acres on Thursday while only remaining 30% contained, according to the Florida Forest Service. But nearly the entire eastern half of the Florida Peninsula is on alert for wildfires Thursday, prompting officials to urge residents once again to avoid outdoor burning.

    I think the old joke about the guy asking directions in Maine is appropriate here in Florida this week – ya can’t get there from here. That is to say you can if you have a boat but otherwise all 100+ miles of all of the Keys is a no-go zone.”

  28. “Here’s an idea that could spread like a wildfire through the most liberal states. At yesterday’s New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) meeting, the state agency decided to approve an “equity” plan to tie energy rates to income. That’s right: the BPU (populated by Murphy appointees) wants to base your utility bill on your income level; high income and middle income families can expect increases while households that have already qualified for state utility assistance would likely receive a downward adjustment. New Jerseyans are already bracing for electric bill jumps of up to 20% beginning June 1st. What’s next – groceries priced based on income and status? Where would this concept end…”

  37. “Ex-CBS Reporter Reveals How Big Pharma Took Over the News Media: Sharyl Atkisson says “something changed” in 2006.”

    The Vigilant Fox, Mar 21, 2025

    ENTIRE ARTICLE: “Award-winning investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson is blowing the whistle on how pharmaceutical companies slowly took control of the media—beginning around 2006. According to Attkisson, this shift didn’t happen overnight, but looking back, she says the warning signs were there.

    In the early 2000s, mainstream media platforms like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and Morning Joe with Joe Scarborough gave airtime to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to discuss vaccine safety. Notably, Scarborough even shared that his own son had suffered a vaccine injury. Even Atkission herself was able to do reports on the flu vaccine’s abysmal efficacy.

    (Video – Jimmy Dore)

    But soon after, that kind of coverage disappeared. “And then all of a sudden, it just all went away,” Jimmy Dore noted.

    So what happened?

    Attkisson admitted that, at the time, she didn’t fully understand what was happening behind the scenes. It wasn’t until later that the bigger picture came into focus. The pharmaceutical industry, she realized, had started forming direct partnerships with major media companies—including CBS News, where she worked.

    At the corporate level, media companies and pharma giants were joining forces, even lobbying Congress together to loosen long-standing restrictions on pharmaceutical advertising. Until then, she noted, advertising prescription drugs on television was not just rare—it was illegal. “This was forbidden, against the law,” she said, and it remains forbidden in most countries around the world. But in the U.S., the rules were changed. And the result was staggering: billions, and eventually trillions, of advertising dollars flowing into the media industry.

    That flood of money didn’t just affect commercials—it began influencing what stories could and couldn’t be told. “We were starting to feel the effects of it in the news division at CBS,” she said. “Lobbyists from the corporation at CBS went together with pharmaceutical industry lobbyists on Capitol Hill to lobby members of Congress.”

    The outcome, she warned, was devastating for public health. While pharma worked to increase profits, the media—now financially entangled—stopped holding them accountable. “They’re funding their non-investigation,” she said. “It largely influences the stories that don’t get done.”

    Attkisson also emphasized that media executives and managers weren’t asking for “balance” anymore. The censorship was more blunt: “They were just saying, ‘We can’t tell this story at all. The people must not know about it,’” Atkisson revealed. She believes the American media was supposed to act as a firewall—offering oversight, especially when Congress fails to do so. But that firewall collapsed under the weight of pharmaceutical dollars.

    (Video – Dore)

    Former Pharma consultant Calley Means talked about this explicitly not too long ago on Tucker Carlson’s podcast. He attested that the true goal of pharma ads on TV is not to sell drugs but to BUY OFF the news media, describing it as an “open secret” within the pharmaceutical industry.

    (Tucker/Calley Video)

    Most of us already sense this is true, but hearing it confirmed by two industry insiders hits differently. The truth is that Big Pharma has the TV news on a leash. And until that funding disappears, you can’t trust a single word they say about your health. Watch the full video below:”

    1. “….But, as it turns out, the astronauts being up in space for so long would have them build up overtime pay… if they actually qualified for it, which, according to NASA’s policies, they don’t. That’s 286 days worth of extra time in space that they won’t be compensated for. 

      If that doesn’t seem right, you’re in good company. 

      On Friday, Fox News’ Steve Doocy asked Trump about incidental pay from NASA, which amounts to $5 a day, totaling out to $1,430 for each astronaut. Trump’s response wasn’t surprising, but still endearing.”
