I protested. I flew to El Paso to the Clint border station where they had the kids in cells and cages at gunpoint under the threat of death, and I protested. The US intelligence community had let them know that I was coming and they had an entire team of killers with M4s trying to get me to move incorrectly because, as they charged me in court, anything over 3 lb can be used as a lethal weapon and I could have killed them all. I refused to take the bait and had reporters there recording. I was arrested and when I was brought into the station I was assaulted while wearing cuffs by border patrol agent Manuel Alvarez IV. He was upset that I was walking too slowly after they took away my cane.
Manuel Alvarez IV then worked with FBI agent Issac Frost and FBI agent Shannon Enochs to charge me with a federal crime because in theory I could have atomized their bulletproof door with a crowbar and caused $100,000 or more of damage, if only I wasn’t just peacefully protesting wild loudly stating on public property in an open area that I was there to peacefully protest and that I was unarmed (and also severely physically disabled from being a thrice deployed veteran). FBI agents Issac Frost and FBI agent Shannon Enochs literally edited out that part of the tape when they prosecuted me. Again, there are no consequences for this. Fortunately, even though I am a disabled veteran with memory issues I had a decent memory of what had happened years prior by the time I was prosecuted and notified my lawyer that they had modified the tape.
This is one of the only reasons why I didn’t spend my life in jail.
The U.S. federal government has a 95% to 98% success rate with their prosecutions. I was found not guilty. The case is available online if you Google Manuel Alvarez IV. Long story short attorneys volunteered to take my case for free and pushed it as far as they could, but the government claimed immunity. Apparently they can just do this and this is approved by judges and the law. This isn’t an accident. They wrote this down on paper. I don’t understand. I’m just a disabled veteran trying to uphold our constitution.
Border patrol and the FBI are currently ran by and employs the people who were illegally holding children at gunpoint, and the agents who falsify evidence in order to put innocent veterans in jail. Many parts of their actions have been found to be illegal, but more importantly were hugely an obviously immoral. These are the people who are now the federal employees telling us we need to listen to them.

The department of veterans affairs told me that the polyps growing in my face are terminal because I can’t have a third polypectomy. That’s just the results of going to war and burn pits. I will be dead and these guys will be running the US government.
Congratulations FBI, you won in the long run as you always do.
I applaud your bravery, and I’m sorry you were treated so poorly by a government you gave everything to. You can be proud that you stand on the right side of history, and fought for ethical treatment of your fellow humans. I hope you are able to get treatment and recover from your polyps.
When all that went down I attended a large protest in my area but wasn’t harassed and persecuted by the feds like you were.
I really appreciate it. It didn’t help anything though. I was a career federal employee before that. I really thought the system was full of people trying to do good. What I was confronted with changed everything.
I believe you, btw, but I wanted to read the court filings and googling “Manuel alvarez IV” just brings up a court case against 3M and a mention as a grandchild in an obituary.
I’m confident that Melania Trump was proudly showcasing her own apathy, not ironically advocating for protest against her husband or making a statement about how the opposition doesn’t care enough.
And she was right because if people really cared they’d protest until it stops and they don’t so they passively consent.

I don’t know why I was scared to tell it before. I have recently been liberated from those fears.

You’re a fucking hero, man! That’s honestly more than I’ve ever done against state violence and imperialism. I mean it.

Oh awesome, thanks!
If it’s federal you probably need to search Pacer for the court filings.
I didn’t remember these protests, thanks for refreshing my memory! 🙏
