    I am a against and the US Department of Veterans Affairs. I had voted until that point.

    Then, I was brutalized by police and jailed, 4 times by the regime, and once by the regime ( extrajudicially incarcerated, without trial, or due process ).

    All charges were dropped, as I fought in court. They never had any reason to arrest me. It was an attempt at whistleblower intimidation.

    This is my account:

    I have been since 2023 , except for a few months.

    If you had told me that both sides were the same, in 2022, I would have laughed. Now, I believe it.

    Healthcare was complicated and expensive.
    People wanted Universal Healthcare.
    So Obama sold us
    Now, is complicated, expensive, AND mandatory.
    More money for “the healthcare industry”.

    After the market crash of 2008, where many Americans lost their retirement savings, it was who stopped the investigation into the behind the crash.

    Trump is not much better than Obama.

    Yes, both sides are the same, and they both work for the rich.

    I am now in , seeking political asylum, and have been homeless for a while, and without medical care. I have had to go hungry for days at a time, a few times, as every NPO aimed at helping refugees, has denied me help.

          from publisher's description of the book: In vivid prose and with unparalleled access to insiders, Ahmed depicts a White House that resisted a course correction as its failures became undeniable. He probes Biden’s inner circle: a paranoid and imperious group shaped by the War on Terror, whose choices fueled tens of thousands of avoidable deaths among Palestinians, Lebanese, and Israelis, torpedoed long-time standards for warfare, and created a more dangerous world for us all. The Biden administration’s decisions drove voter backlash that helped Donald Trump regain power, and established patterns of impunity that have spurred wider bloodshed under Trump. Crossing the Red Line is an urgent reckoning with Biden’s record on Gaza that is vital to understanding historic damage to America’s standing in the world, and a period whose dark consequences will resonate globally for decades to come.

            Al Gore Invented the Internet.
            Joe Biden invented PGP encryption.
            Cypherpunks write code.

            Joe Biden gifted humanity with PGP encryption (in a roundabout way). Phil Zimmermann created PGP in response to a anti-privacy bill clause proposed by Senator Joe Biden.

            https://www.americanscientist.org/article/cypherpunks-write-code

            "In 1990, the FBI launched an over-the-top crackdown on computer hackers, known as Operation Sundevil. This was swiftly followed, in early 1991, by a proposed piece of U.S. Senate legislation that would force electronic communications service providers to hand over people’s personal data. (The key clause, S.266, was pushed by the then chairman of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Joe Biden.)"
            "On learning of Biden’s S.266 clause, Zimmermann feverishly set out to complete the project, almost losing his house in the process. When he finished his software in 1991, he published it all online, free for anyone who wanted to use it. He called it “Pretty Good Privacy,” or PGP for short, and within weeks it had been downloaded and shared by thousands of people around the world. “Before PGP, there was no way for two ordinary people to communicate over long distances without the risk of interception,” said Zimmermann in a later interview. “Not by phone, not by FedEx, not by fax.” It remains the most widely used form of email encryption to this day."
            Joe Biden's first panopticon bill:

            https://www.congress.gov/bill/102nd-congress/senate-bill/266

            "SEC. 2201. COOPERATION OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROVIDERS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT. It is the sense of Congress that providers of electronic communications services and manufacturers of electronic communications service equipment shall ensure that communications systems permit the government to obtain the plain text contents of voice, data, and other communications when appropriately authorized by law."
            As they say in Texas: That dinosaur don't hunt.
