Tell me of your greatest strength, so I will know how best to undermine you. Tell me what you fear most, so I know what to force you to face. Tell me what you cherish most, so I will know what to take from you. Tell me what you crave, so that I might deny you.
@backmarket@TIME These people are scum bags, do not buy anything from them. They will take your money and never ship out what you bought. Waste of time and energy just to get my money back.
David sits in his car. The engine is off, but he hasn't moved for ten minutes.
He is parked in the driveway of the house he pays for, staring at the front door. Inside, the lights are warm. He can see the silhouette of his wife, Sarah, moving in the kitchen. He can see his daughter watching TV. It looks like a perfect life.
But David isn't soaking it in. He is hyperventilating.
He grips the steering wheel until his knuckles turn white. He is taking these ten minutes to put the "mask" back on.
At work today, he lost a major client. The company is downsizing. He might not have a job in three months. The panic is a physical weight on his chest, crushing his lungs. He wants to walk inside, fall into Sarah’s arms, and say, "I’m scared. I don’t know if I can keep holding this up. I need you to tell me it’s going to be okay."
But he doesn't.
He remembers three years ago. His mother died. He broke down in front of Sarah. He cried. Really cried. He saw the look in her eyes shift. From comfort to fear.
The "Rock" had crumbled, and she didn't know how to look at him anymore. The attraction faded for months.
He learned his lesson: He is allowed to be sad, but he is not allowed to be helpless.
So, in the darkness of the driveway, David swallows the panic. He fixes his tie. He checks his reflection in the rearview mirror and practices the smile. The "I'm fine" smile.
He opens the car door and walks inside.
"Hey, honey! You're late," Sarah says, not looking up from her phone. "Did you remember to transfer the tuition fees? The school sent a reminder."
She didn't bother to ask how he is.
"Yeah, I did it," David says, kissing her cheek. She accepts the kiss, but she doesn't lean into it. That moment, he felt like he is just part of the furniture. A utility provider that keeps the lights on.
Later that night, in bed, David reaches out. He runs his hand down her arm, starving for a touch that isn't transactional. He just wants to feel desired. He wants to know he matters.
Sarah sighs. A heavy, annoyed sigh. "David, I'm exhausted. The kids were a nightmare today. Can we just sleep?"
��He pulls his hand back immediately, humiliated. The "Beggar Dynamic" kicks in. He feels gross for even asking. He turns his back to her, staring at the wall.
Lying there, in the house he built, next to the woman he loves, David realizes the terrifying truth:
If he died tomorrow, they would miss him.
But if he went broke tomorrow, hmm...
He realizes he isn't loved unconditionally like his daughter or the dog. He is on a performance contract. As long as the payments clear, he is allowed to stay.
He closes his eyes. The panic returns. But he stays silent.
Because the only safe space he has left is inside his own head.
They are all corporate zionist clowns. Just to be clear I don't like any of them.
Gonzalez v. Google is the perfect example 9-0 ruling against people against even politicians and all for big tech.
Texas v. Pennsylvania is another ultimate test. There are only two justices worth anything on the court Thomas and Alito.
But ranking them:
1) Samuel Alito – Relentless. Voted to hear Texas v. PA. Always on offense in the culture war. Tactical, sharp, and unapologetic.
2) Clarence Thomas – The hammer. Voted to hear Texas v PA. Deeply principled on structure. Loses points for bending to corporate power but earns them back for being fearless.
3) Neil Gorsuch – Intellectual libertarian, one of the best in oral arguments. Thomas is really quiet and heavily biased in oral arguments almost like he's above it all and doesn't care. I hate that about Thomas. Gorsuch is extremely balanced and founded in law.
4) Ketanji Brown Jackson – I respect someone willing to name the structural problem, even if I disagree on the solution. She has had other good ruling on the side of "conservatives" also. Shockingly good justice.
5) Elena Kagan - Obviously Party-line liberal, deeply tied to the institutional left and Israel defense machine. Smart, but she’s a disciplined regime mouthpiece.
6) John Roberts – Weak. Institutional preservationist. Always trying to split the baby. Paul Ryan in a robe.
7) Amy Coney Barrett – She’s too fake polished, too quiet, too loyal to Roberts’ brand of “keep the court looking respectable.” She has no independent thought in her, just a shill in a robe.
8) Brett Kavanaugh — honestly, almost forgot about him. He’s the Jeb Bush of the Court truly forgettable, compliant, and mostly there to look “reasonable” while pushing the same tired corporate-friendly rulings.
9) Sonia Sotomayor – Dead last. Overly emotional, leans on pathos instead of logic, and always votes like the DNC is standing over her shoulder. She should be impeached 100% on competence alone. Honestly one of the dumbest political and judicial figures I've ever studied.
🚨J6ERS DUE PROCESS DENIED🚨
DC Federal Judge Hogan is on the record in December 2021 admitting my Due Process rights had been violated, but REFUSING to make a decision on the matter.
At this point, I had been in for almost a year, and..
1- Had just sat in Solitary Confinement for nearly a year in a single man 10'X7' cell.
23 hours in the cell. 1 hour out. 36 hours back in the cell. 1 hour out. 23 hours in the cell. 1 hour out. 32 hours in the cell. 1 hour out.
As a honorably discharged Marine with diagnosed PTSD, this almost fucking killed me.
2- I was refused haircuts and shaves for 15+ months because I refused to take the COVID Shot.
The jail told us we could have haircuts and shaves if we took the jab.
Judge Hogan told me on the record (I have transcripts for proof) before this bond hearing, in which he admitted my Due Process rights had been violated, that if I DID NOT GET THE COVID SHOT, THEN I COULDNT COME TO COURT TO DEFEND MYSELF AND POSSIBLY GO HOME!
Imagine my plight??
I was coerced and forced by a federal judge to take an experimental vaccine or remain stuck in Solitary Confinement.
I've always had a military style haircut and a clean cut face and trimmed beard. After 1 year of no haircuts and shaves, my beard was down to my belly, and my hair was down to my shoulders.
P.S. - I ended up taking the shot against my better judgement, and was still denied bond (even with due process rights violations), haircuts, shave, family visits, outside recreation and sunlight, attorneys visits, discovery, and much more.
3- I was REFUSED FAMILY VISITS FOR 2 YEARS by the jail and courts unless I was vaccinated, along with my wife and kids being vaccinated.
Because I refused to vaccinate my children, I never saw them for 2 years.
Can you even fathom what that does to a child's mind when they can't see their father for 2 years?
My boys were 4 and 6 when I was arrested. They were 6 and 8 before I ever got to see them again.
They didn't even look the same when I saw them in person again. This still mentally crushes me every time I think about it.
4- I was denied medical and mental health care.
I have a strenuous paper trail detailing how the jail knowingly disregarded my medical conditions, and were intentionally being deliberately indifferent to my medical conditions.
Once again, I have diagnosed PTSD from the Marine Corps and Search and Rescue operations. I asked for help over and over, and was denied.
More on this in a later post.
5- We were assaulted by officers MULTIPLE TIMES (sprayed with pepper spray) because an inmate didn't have his COVID mask on.
I want to be clear about this..
I, myself, was sprayed multiple times by officers in the D.C. Jail because ANOTHER inmate didn't wear THEIR mask.
Don't take my word for it. There are 30+ other J6ers who can cooberate this story. We have the paper trial to prove it.
And this is only 2 examples.. We have MANY examples to choose from.
More on this later.
6- I was denied discovery and had my discovery confiscated (STOLEN) by jail officers against my will (6th Amendment Violations).
Once again, there are witness statements, Bodycam footage, and a paper trail to prove every bit of this.
More in a later post.
_____________________________
I've got much more to say, and will be dropping more information like this soon.
However, with all the talk of getting pardons or not getting pardons, I wanted to make my case known to the public.
I take full responsibility for my actions on J6.
Yes, I assaulted officers who were beating women with batons and punching them in the face.
People like Officer Bagshaw, who beat Victoria White, Shane Jenkins and many other people unmercifully in front of me should never be able to wear that badge again.
I'm not proud of everything I did that day, and wish now I would have never put myself in that position.
However, I couldn't have ever looked myself in the eye again had I not helped them.
They're lying to you about transgender women and girls in sports- this is about the most disingenuous piece, not to mention the flat out lies . Shame on USA Today for publishing this piece- this is not journalism …. https://t.co/xU13vVANmM
