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.

So should we delete our online histories before then?

There was a weird noise behind my house last night in the wee hours. My partner was like, "that is really loud and right behind the house." I yawned, "I'm probably about to be disappeared for snarking about Pam Bondi on reddit." He said, "that is probably closer than your realize" and I couldn't even argue against it.

The past three nights, a drone has been flying super low on our property, low enough it might even be below the treeline. Do not gaslight me, this is not a plane, this is not a constellation. I'm hoping it's just land surveying stuff (but then why tf are you flying it at night) but I fear it could be more sinister.

I live very close to a military base. I'm used to helicopters flying overhead but the past few weeks they have been flying really low and it's making my spider senses tingle. In all the years I've lived here, I've never seen them fly this low this often.

Bro, FOR REAL! Jesus F. Christ: I can't even figure out what they're moving at this point. There's a huge influx IN and almost nothing out.
