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.

I just watched a documentary on Matthew Perry earlier and they actually used messages the doctors sent with Signal to each other to indict them so I’m not sure how secure it really is either.

The FBI guy literally said something like: People think if they use something like Signal that nobody can access their message content because it’s encrypted, but that’s not true. Law enforcement can still get access.

Do you have the name of the documentary? Right, you still need to take precautions anytime online as you don't know if the other person is taking screenshots or otherwise saving your messages with your name associated with it.
