Are YOU on the DHS’s “Extremist” List?

The DHS has turned against the people. Critical thinkers like YOU are being labeled “extremists.” Surveillance hubs, tools like Albert Sensors, and entities like Fusion Centers are watching your every move. This is NOT about safety—it’s about CONTROL.

If you question authority, challenge mandates, or stand for your freedoms, YOU’RE ALREADY ON THEIR RADAR. And guess what? So am I. Proudly. But this isn’t just about us—it’s about dismantling a corrupt system before it’s too late.

Fusion Centers: The Orwellian Nightmare

They claim to “prevent terrorism,” but Fusion Centers have become surveillance hubs tracking YOU—the average American. These centers may even monitor real-time election data, controlling the very democracy they pretend to protect.

Albert Sensors & Cradlepoint Routers: Trojan Horses

These so-called “cybersecurity tools” funnel data straight to DHS databases. Worse, many Cradlepoint routers come from China, a nation infamous for surveillance. Why are these devices in our critical infrastructure? What backdoors exist? Who’s watching YOU?

CISA: The Silencer of Dissent

Under the guise of “cybersecurity,” CISA flags opinions, controls narratives, and labels truth-seekers as “disinformers.” This isn’t protection—it’s suppression.

DHS’s True Target: YOU

According to internal memos, DHS targets those questioning elections, mandates, and policies. By branding concerned citizens as threats, they spread fear to suppress dissent. But WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED.

The Solution: Revolution, Not Reform

The DHS is beyond repair. Here’s what must happen:

Abolish Fusion Centers, CISA, and CIS—their surveillance and overreach are cancerous.

Eliminate Albert Sensors and Cradlepoint routers—investigate their misuse and secure our systems.

Demand oversight—no program should exist without public scrutiny.

This isn’t reform—it’s a takedown.

America at a Tipping Point

Liberty cannot survive under constant surveillance. If you value freedom, if you dare to think for yourself, wear their labels as a badge of honor. But don’t stop there.

Speak out. Fight back. Take action. The DHS must be dismantled, and its power returned to the people. This is OUR country, not theirs.

The storm is here... Will you rise? 🤔

Weapons Violations, Misconduct, and Whistleblower Retaliation at ICE

Allegations of long-running misconduct plague ICE’s Houston deportation hub.

Scores of internal documents suggest a commitment to safety and law and order may stop at the entrance to ICE’s Houston deportation hub.

The only thing Trump should do with the DHS is abolish it.

Request Records Through the Freedom of Information Act | U.S. Customs and Border Protection

I'm trying to request information regarding my own person and you use Deloitte. That's brilliant. You might as well have Dave Chappelle or Jon Stewart code, biases in tact. I wonder how many politicians who commit financial fraud travel with diplomatic immunity. I'm so naive.

Irony. Delicious.

Democrats: True Blue Facists

It's not being talked about nearly enough but the Biden Administration has just had a preliminary injunction put on them preventing them from contacting social media companies for the purpose of managing “the removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech posted on social-media platforms.”

Its a quick 7 page decision, but damning through and through. Everything from COVID-19 to Hunter Biden's laptop; even Joe Biden's policies, were subject to suppression by government organizations and their affiliates (Southern Poverty Law Center, Election Integrity Partnership, the Virality Project, the Stanford Internet Observatory, etc etc) all in an effort to protect Democrats.

Of course Biden's lawyers will appeal, claiming that it prevents them from "speaking on matters of public concern" and “to prevent grave harm to the American people." Yap yap yap yap

It's fucking bone head stupid to believe the American government is in anyway hamstrung from speaking when it has access to the most powerful avenues of information dissemination in the world in the form of the aforementioned goverment agencies and its affiliates, the lick-spittle legacy media and the White Houses own messaging apparatuses.

Hopefully the Biden administration's appeal to behave like a bunch of facists gets shot down.

Kristi Noem: ICE raid leakers have been found, now facing 10 years in prison. 🤔

[ggadtomarry]

Harry is an iconic character, and many people interpret him in many different ways. That's good!

But I think some "Harry is actually this and that" are in truth "Harry should be this and that".

I don't agree with many choices the author took. But I still admit they're canon. Maybe other choices would have done a better story, but this is.

For example, Harry's stance against murder is super clear. He refuses to let Sirius and Remus kill Peter, the only person to do it.

He fights with many of his adult companions because he's strictly against murder. In DH he uses expelliarmus and everybody knows it's him. When people rebutt him for this, he says that killing people is Voldemort's job, not his.

I really like Harry having a strong moral backbone and not surrendering to the cruel world he lives in. A world where many people want him dead, or imprisoned, or discredited, or such.

Yes, Harry has occasionally violent thoughts, but those are very rare, considering how terrible his life is.

This also makes Tomarry so delicious. Corruption arc? What about Tom being ?????? Because Harry has creative solutions to problems that don't require murder? Groundbreaking.

Press Release

Washington, DC —  Today, Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez (IL-03) demanded Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s resign after confirming her understanding of her constitutional duties and confronting her with her unconstitutional, illegal weaponization of DHS to pursue a campaign of persecution, mass incarceration, and deportation. 

During her questioning of Secretary Noem, Congresswoman Ramirez slammed Noem for profiling and dehumanizing individuals, betraying the constitutional commitment to due process, undermining court orders, breaking the law, engaging in corruption, and weaponizing the immigration system to violate our civil rights.

Seth Magaziner Unyieldingly Questions Kristi Noem About Deporting 4-Year-Old US Citizen With Cancer | Forbes Breaking News | May 14, 2025

At today's House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Rep. Seth Magaziner (D-RI) questioned DHS Sec. Kristi Noem.

THIS ⬆️is the way you deal with a corrupt MAGA official who is trying to dodge questions at a Congressional hearing. Rep. Seth Magaziner (D-RI) does a masterful job of not putting up with any nonsense from DHS Sec. Kristi Noem.

Below is a transcript of Magaziner's closing comments from the video.

REP. SETH MAGAZINER: During your confirmation hearing you said your focus would be on deporting immigrants who have been convicted of crimes and those who have received removal orders. But that is not what you have been doing. Instead, you have been deporting children with cancer. Children who are US citizens. A gay makeup artist who committed no crime and didn't even enter the country illegally. You have been sloppy. Your department has been sloppy. And instead of focusing on real criminals, you have allowed innocent children to be deported while you fly around the country playing dress up for the cameras. Instead of enforcing the laws, you have repeatedly broken them. You need to change course immediately before more innocent people are hurt on your watch.

I LOVE all the theories coming out for Mydei right now.

3.3 Spoilers ahead

So far I've seen:

He and the Chrysos Heirs are algorithms devised by the Scepter to consistently run and reset the cycle and keep the Lord Ravager trapped.

He is a "firewall" designed to stop/slow the corruption of the Black Tide.

He and the other Calamity Titans are bugs that were never meant to be in the system, and the Scepter responds to the bugs by factory resetting itself.

He is a virus created by an outside source to set the Lord Ravager (Phainon) free.

He is a creation of Phainon's own will and what Phainon perceives to be the ideal hero.

The last one kind of goes hand in hand with the theory that Bandage Seal copies Blade's mannerisms because of Dan Heng's influence. Like the Scepter can warp/create things into existence based on a person's thoughts. (It's not a Rinn post unless I mention DH at least one time).

Amphoreus being run by an ancient super computer leaves so many possibilities open. Share your thoughts in the comments or ask box! I'm curious what other lore hogs think.

Personally I think Mydei/the Strife titan is a "firewall," but I want soo badly for the virus theory to be true. Like "Don't worry, my Lord Ravager. We'll get you out with the power of hot gay tension." Happy Pride Month I guess lmao

phaidei & renheng parallels (as of 3.1) (spoilers & theories ahead!!)

thinking about phainon/mydei + blade/dan heng (incl. yingxing/dan feng) parallels, here's some scattered observations & parallels i made

- the closeness phainon & mydei have is very reminiscent of yingxing & dan feng. like i get this feeling that this is what it would've been like to witness yingxing and dan feng together on-screen

- both blade & mydei Can Not Die

- both phainon & dan heng are associated with the path of trailblaze (one way or another)

- dan heng directly relates to mydei's conflict of letting go of the past to go towards the future

- cloud piercer being broken On Amphoreus Specifically by Phainon Specifically and having him allude to blade -- definitely says something.

also, TB's memory of dan heng & blade being brought up in amphoreus for some reason (of course it's moreso astral express vs stellaron hunters, but renheng are inherently tied to that dichotomy anyways)

more in-depth spoilers ahead

- blade got corrupted by the abundance motherfuckers. i have a very strong suspicion that mydei might become corrupted by the black tide, and then i think phainon is going to kill mydei. #tragicyaoi

either way, no matter what happens here, something bad is going to happen to them

- with the reaver being commonly theorized to be another phainon from the future or another timeline, we have the dual persona with reaver - phainon and dan heng - dan feng. both the flame reaver and dan heng walk a different path than their other self. (i think this even adds more meaning to dan heng's heavily involved presence on amphoreus at the moment)

- if blade & mydei cannot die, it might be the case that only dan heng & phainon (reaver) are capable of killing them. or rather, it's only dh/phainon that blade/mydei wants, to be the one to kill them.

- they are part of a group of worshipped heroes, but that group will meet a tragic end? chrysos heirs and high cloud quintet. largely at the hands of phainon (flame reaver) : dan feng. i think something will happen to phainon that will make him parallel dan feng even more

- the chrysos heirs, after they die, will probably be reborn somehow in the "new world/genesis" they're working towards. part of the prophecy is that all but one person will die(?) before the coming of the new world, and that one person will open the path to the new world. which imo reflects how all of the high cloud quintet got reborn/corrupted except for jing yuan

what this means for both pairings & the story?

honestly, i do enjoy how hsr has parallels all over the place, and it might be a testament to how well these two dynamics work, that phaidei & renheng might be the most popular hsr m/m pairings. (side note, for some reason i'm more partial to myphai 🤔 but that's irrelevant)

on top of that, by drawing these parallels, we can further understand just How Doomed phainon & mydei are (as are the rest of the chrysos heirs), and how closely intertwined dan feng & yingxing might have been in the past -- to the point their conflict and feelings are still relevant in the current day as dan heng and blade. even if they're at conflict with each other, there is still such a deep connection that shapes them so profoundly, it cannot be overlooked..

(everything after this is incoherent yapping that i'm not entirely sure about myself but it's what's on my mind)

i do think this also further amplifies the trailblaze vs finality dichotomy, if finality is to be the 3rd path of amphoreus, and if finality is to be associated with the 3 titans of calamity (which mydei = strife is associated with one of those.)

the main thing that marks a significant change in both of these dynamics is the influence of trailblaze. we already know with dan heng joining the path of trailblaze, he wants to come to terms w/ his past in his own way and seek a new future for himself. he's making a meaningful change in his own life. (i do believe he's only getting started in this, the conflict he has with blade, the relationship between astral express & stellaron hunters -- not to mention future involvement w/ xianzhou politics -- will definitely span over the long, long run of HSR as a whole). we don't know if or how dh & blade would ever reconcile, but the paths they now walk on this grand script of "honkai star rail" might lead to an answer later down the road...

in the case of amphoreus, going off the theory they're in a time loop and the flame reaver is a key part of that time loop -- if in previous loops mydei would die or become corrupted at the hands of phainon/reaver, that is "finality" at work -- the endless endings. "trailblaze" is the element that interrupts that, and is what phainon is meant to wield. the trailblazers' appearance in the story would be what diverges the loop and helps phainon become the "nameless hero/king" he is destined to become ...

the really spicy, awesome thing about both these pairings is just how strongly intertwined they are with the overarching plot of their respective stories, and the themes so strongly present in duality and opposition, it's just so good to dig into 😭🙏 and just how much they parallel EACH OTHER too and how important dan heng himself even is to amphoreus too, it's like. god. in analyzing the things that affect their relationship, you're not only analyzing just that, but also the larger story in general and. aouujgjgkhghhh it's so good, it's so good. let them cook we love yaoi star rail

[eliminatefamilycourt]

What will it take for Americans to finally stand up and say, "Enough is enough" when it comes to the corruption in CPS, DHS, and family court? How many more children have to be taken from loving parents just because they’re poor not abusive?

How many more mothers have to cry themselves to sleep? How many more fathers have to shout into a system that doesn’t care?And how long will people believe that posting, commenting, and sharing is enough?

It’s not.

This blog is a heartfelt call to action. It includes a powerful secret audio recording from a foster child who misses their parents and pleads with grown-ups to do something.

This child’s message is clear: "Please, stand up on June 3rd. Please, fight for us."

We are fighting for change through the Family Protection Act, and this blog is just the beginning. If you’ve ever said “someone should do something”… You are that someone.

We need you, Families and children who need you, Let's stop being silent and let's start doing something about corruption. Because silence is complicity and that's a fact.

To any everyone that participated in the hands off rally and the 50501 rallies thank you for standing up to corruption, most importantly for taken action, getting up and getting out not seating around takes courage. We absolutely love you all.

Read the blog. Share it. Blaze this post. And more importantly show up.

Clearly your AG is useless and incompetence is abundant all over Oregon.

I hope you get as many incompetent assholes elected as Milwaukee, Hillsboro, and Portland and Nike can pump out. Oregon is such a vast shit hole of conspiracy theorist idiots and fucking morons who understand science. You and Idaho could fuck each to make the ultimate Vivek ramaswamy, Donald trump anti vax fat illiterate gun toting shiny retard that could run for president. As long as I fucking NEVER have to smell your fatass again. Fucking moron. A special shout-out to Nike and the Washington county sheriff. State sanctioned harassment. White women are soooo smart.

Terrible Fic Idea #100: Harry Potter, but make it Conclave

While driving somewhere for work the other day, I was struck by the most perfect, most terrible crossover for this, my 100th Terrible Fic Idea. Because at some point during that drive my mind went: Ralph Fiennes played a character named Tom in Harry Potter; he also played a character named Thomas in Conclave (2024). The rest, as they say, is history.

Or: What if, after dying in the Forbidden Forrest, Death sent Harry Potter to a universe where Tom Riddle was adopted by the Lawrence family as a child?

aka the keep the earth below my feet fic

Just Imagine It:

When Harry dies at the end of DH, instead of meeting Dumbledore in King's Cross, he encounters (the Angel of) Death, who grants him a boon for collecting their missing personal effects: Harry can either return to his old life, where it's very likely he'll die again in the battle now raging around him, or go on to his reward.

Now, Harry is in a pretty dark place at that moment. He has, after all, just committed suicide by Dark Lord. The idea of going straight back into a war that has cost him everything is so anathema to him that he decides to go to his reward. Naturally, he assumes this to be some sort of afterlife where he can meet his parents and see Sirius, Remus, &c again-

-but instead he's dropped into a fairly ordinary muggle living room somewhere in the near vicinity of Guildford, where an old man in clerical clothing is putting things into boxes.

Meanwhile, four months after the events of the conclave, things are running smoothly in Pope Innocent XIV's Vatican.

Joseph Tremblay has been publicly defrocked for simony but not excommunicated from the Church; Aldo Bellini has replaced him as camerlengo and been given the instruction to root out corruption wherever he finds it - a task for which Goffredo Tedesco is an unexpected ally more often than not, though there's serious talk of soundproofing whatever office the pair happen to find themselves in. The former dean Thomas Lawrence has been invested as Secretary of State and has become Vincent's closest friend and advisor.

Then, shortly after Easter, Thomas receives word that the last of his siblings has died and left her home in Guildford to him.

This is somewhat of surprise, but not how one might think. The Lawrence family had adopted twelve children from orphanages around London over the years; Thomas had merely been the last and youngest of these. The real surprise is that Iris Evans née Lawrence had outlived all her children and grandchildren so that her estate might fall to him.

Thomas takes a sabbatical to handle the arrangements and is in the middle of packing up her things when a young man in bloody, threadbare, dirt-stained clothing appears in the middle of his sister's living room.

The situation is tense at first, but a kindly old man offering Harry food, tea, and a place to rest breaks down a lot of barriers, and this and the stress of having recently been dead causes the truth to spill out.

Thomas takes the knowledge his houseguest is an unwitting wizarding refugee from a war in another universe much better than one might expect a priest should, in part because before his adoption his name had been Tom Marvolo Riddle and he'd attended Hogwarts before seminary. (Not, of course, that he's ever thought of himself as Tom Riddle. He's been Thomas Lawrence since he was fifteen months old and has lived his life as such. He's never had the slightest interest in tracking down who his biological family might be.)

After much arguing - and many cups of tea - they agree to pass Harry off as Thomas' sister's great-grandson, whose care has fallen to Thomas for lack of other options. Harry's hesitant to accept at first - hell, Harry can barely allow himself to accept a change of clothes - but he's got nothing and no one in this universe. Not to mention that he looks closer to 14 than 17 after his encounter with Death.

(Besides, from what Thomas knows of his eldest sister's family, it's possible that Harry might actually have been her great-grandson in another universe. And even if he wasn't, Thomas is unwilling to abandon a child in need.)

And so Thomas ends up bringing Harry back to the Vatican with him.

This is naturally a surprise and sets the Curia gossip mill running. Those who’d known Thomas as a young man are especially confused. ("Thomas, you’re the most repressed man I’ve ever met. How is it there’s someone who looks just like you forty years ago running around?" "Your memory must be failing, Aldo, if you think I ever had that much energy. Or that much hair.")

But the real bulk of the fic is what comes after - about how a child groomed to fight other people's battles all his life finds closure when the war is finally over and there's not even anyone to bury because even that has been taken from him - about how a child who was never allowed to live for himself learns how to exist without the weight of expectation on his shoulders - about how, "What had the most profound impact on me [...] was the moment when someone reached down to take my hand, drew me up by their side, and called me their friend. Not for gain, not for prominence or wealth, but because that man saw a small child who needed help, and he provided it [x]". This he does surrounded by those who only want the best for him and how have no expectations other than he grows into a happy, healthy adult.

It's all very pastoral and at least partially religious (dealer's choice on how much of it is finding peace and how much is finding god) given the setting, but at the end of the day the fic should be about how healing sometimes can only come after someone reaches out and says let me help.

I have very little plot for all of this, mostly vibes:

Thomas eventually finds out that he was a genocidal would-be dictator in another universe and feels immense guilt over it, especially since he and Voldemort share more than just an origin story - parseltongue, wandless magic, and the like. Again, it should be the realization that it was the hand freely offered by the Lawrences that kept him from going down that path. This doesn't stop him from wanting to help Harry, but does confuse the matter for a bit.

Vincent, of course, has a lot of experience helping former child soldiers and victims of genocidal warfare, he just hadn't expected to need those skills in the Vatican. Or for a child who is nominally his best friend's nephew. The truth comes out eventually, but even before that he's Harry's favorite person to talk to. (Thomas doesn't mind; Vincent is his favorite person too and he's just glad Harry has someone he trusts.)

Aldo too eventually learns about the Wizarding World (perhaps Harry has very violent, very magical nightmares), but has parallel arcs of 1) being angry his friend of forty years never confided in him that he had magic, 2) having extreme difficulty coming to terms with the existence of magic, even after it's repeatedly proven to him; and 3) fretting that there's a whole community that the Church is not engaging with and has no formal representation at the Vatican. Oddly enough, it should be Tedesco who helps the most with each of these, being the only other Wizard in the College of Cardinals.

Harry's journey is slow, but by the time he graduates he's in a much better place then when he first arrived in this universe and should vaguely encompass Éowyn's lines, "I will be a shieldmaiden no longer, nor vie with the great Riders, nor take joy only in the songs of slaying. I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren." Maybe he decides to become a healer or aid worker or follow in Vincent's footsteps as a missionary in underserved parts of the world, but whatever he decides, he always knows he has a family and a home to come back home to.

Bonuses include:

Harry never being quite certain what's going on between Thomas and Vincent. Maybe they're codependent platonic soulmates like he and Ron and Hermione once were, maybe they're carrying out an affair behind closed doors, maybe it's something complicated in between - Harry doesn't know and never asks. All he knows is it works for them and he'd never begrudge the adults who've done so much for him their happiness.

Harry never being quite certain what's going on between Aldo and Tedesco either. Are they each other's nemeses? Are they enemies with benefits? Are they even really enemies and not just antagonistic life partners for whom arguing is foreplay? Or is the arguing merely pulling each other's pigtails because they're both too repressed to realize they're attracted to each other? They agree on more points than they disagree, but invite schism every time they fight on the minutest points of doctrine - yet always seek each other out to argue with and never seem to tire of it. In the end Harry decides he simply doesn't want to know. There are some things in life he's better not knowing.

Multiple references to Sylvester II being the first - and so far only - Wizarding pope.

At least three jokes about cardinal-nephews, the first arising from the American media seizing on a poor translation of some international news article referring to Harry as the cardinal's nephew; and

Vatican City being a character as much as Hogwarts is in canon.

And that's it. That's all I have. As always, feel free to adopt this bun, just link back if you ever do anything with it. (And look forward to a spam of 100th Terrible Fic Idea celebration posts in the coming days.)
