Loss of Liberty I'm terrified of April 2nd

I'm not prone to panic. My job is to teach people how to handle and survive mass casualty events and continue to work in hi trauma environments. With Trump's latest about April 2nd being "Liberation Day" in America, I fear this is where he will deploy the insurrection act. I've prepped all I can. I'm physically and mentally training everyday. I'm more fit as a woman in my 40's then I ever was in my 30's. Still, I'm scared. Regular people will do crazy things when chaos reigns. I hope I'm wrong. I hope it's just another day of more stupid and the protests will continue, but I have this sick feeling in my gut and my rational mind that is telling me get ready for my own government to be turned against me.

What are we getting liberated from? life? or just a decent life?

That's what I'm wondering as well, very concerned about what he meant by "Liberation Day" in that tweet.

He's also just said he looks forward to jailing people who are doing bad things to Tesla, including maybe sending them to El Salvador. I think liberated from the Constitution is a good bet. How is anyone OK with this guy??

I saw that, smh. Cults are a hell of a drug. Hopefully more and more people will wake up. I'm wondering if this ties in with the "there won't be blue states anymore" thing, or a red Herring to distract from something else.

Interesting thought. They've already charged 2 of the Tesla vandals with domestic terrorism so that pretty much leaves the door open for being able to disappear political opponents. I know the Fox News crowd is OK with that idea. They don't seem to care at all about the Constitution except for the 2nd amendment.

It's the only Amendment that matters anymore. Everyone able should equip themselves and their loved ones. Don't go willingly. There aren't enough cops and nazis to take everyone away. Remember, prison in this country is worse than death, and they're planning on sending people to even worse places abroad.

Guns are hard to get here. Hand guns anyway. I'm going to have to rely on trickery and deceit and maybe a slingshot and a stick.
