On this day, May 16th, in 1918, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Sedition Act into law. It effectively banned disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive language towards the US government, the flag, and the armed forces in the midst of the first World War. The Postmaster General was even granted the power to refuse mail delivery meeting the criteria set fourth in the act. Among the most heinous convictions under the law was of Eugene Debs. He was sentenced to ten years in prison and disenfranchised for life, all for urging resistance to the draft. Little seems to have changed today, in a world where the military industrial complex grows ever larger and anti-war voices are silenced by the regime.

On this day, April 25th, in 1983, Samantha Smith, an American schoolgirl, is invited to visit the Soviet Union by General Secretary Yuri Andropov after writing him a letter expressing her fears of a nuclear war. In his reply, he reiterates that the USSR will not engage in a first strike, and states his wish for complete nuclear disarmament. Leaders in the US and Russia today could learn a lot from them. What was once common sense now seems to be far removed from our foreign policy.

On this day, May 10th, in 1924, J. Edgar Hoover was named the Director of the agency that would later be known as the FBI. He would hold the position for almost 50 years. He launched COINTELPRO, which would target civil rights, Anti-War, and any other "dissident" groups using forged documents, planting false reports, wrongful imprisonment, violence, and even assassinations. He even compiled a list of 12,000 Americans suspected of disloyalty at the outbreak of the Korean War and sought approval to detain them without due process. Only President Truman's restraint prevented this from being carried out. From the No Fly Lists to the Waco Siege, the FBI has changed little from the days of Hoover. It continues to show no respect for due process. #AbolishtheFBI

On this day, May 7th, in 1915, German Submarine U20 sinks the British passenger liner Lusitania, bound for the United Kingdom. The ship was carrying more than four million rounds of ammunition that likely contributed to its sinking. Despite the fact that both Germany and the UK had both instituted blockades on each other and that the ship was carrying weapons of war, US President Wilson issued an ultimatum to Germany while ignoring the role of the British in the disaster. Wilson's Secretary of State, William Jennings Bryan, resigned in protest over his handling of the affair. From that point on, his administration was well on its way towards costly American involvement in WWI. Truth is the first casualty in war.

Today, April 19th, in 1993, the Waco Siege came to an end when federal agents including the FBI & Delta Force murdered 76 people, including 25 children and two pregnant women, to cover up the murderous incompetence of the ATF. They used tear gas and set fire to the building as part of the massacre. Their sheer callousness was put on full display and to this day they have still not been held accountable for their actions.

On this day, May 13th, in 1985, the Philadelphia Police Department initiated what would be known as the MOVE bombing. The police engaged in a standoff with the Black Liberation Organization MOVE in a townhouse in West Philadelphia. After surrounding the group members and being unable to force them out, the police decided to drop explosives on the house from a police helicopter. Six adults and five children died from the merciless attack. In addition, the Philadelphia Fire Department elected to allow the subsequent fire to burn out of control. Sixty-one houses along two city blocks were completely destroyed due to their actions, leaving 250 people homeless. The city government treated its own citizens no better than terrorists.

📆 #OnThisDay, September 3rd, 1783, the Revolutionary War officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Paris. In it, Britain recognized the Independence of the new nation. The destructive seven year conflict had finally come to an end. It is worth noting, however, that US Independence did not start on this date. It started on July 4th, 1776, the minute the founders proclaimed Independence. Our natural rights are inherent, and are not reliant on any government affirmation. We need only be brave enough to stand up for them. 🗽 #BeBrave #DoNotComply

On this day, April 13th, in 1953, CIA Director Allen Dulles launched Project MKUltra. No less than 7,000 veterans were administered mind altering drugs in the CIA's experiments without their consent. The program finally ended in 1973, and was brought to light after investigations by the Church Committee in Congress starting in 1975. The legacy of shattered trust in the institutions and the responsibility to hold them accountable lasts to this day, with the Church Committee now on the path to re-formation.

A protest is being organized outside the capitol at approximately 1pm to raise awareness and voice our opposition to these problematic gun acts. Additionally, we are coordinating efforts to call senators' offices prior to the reconvening of the Senate. Your participation in this vital effort is greatly appreciated. Stay tuned for more details and instructions on how you can get involved in this fight to protect our rights and uphold the Constitution.

📆 #OnThisDay, July 30th, in 1881, Smedley Butler was born. A US Marine that served in virtually every conflict of the early 20th century, he exposed significant corruptions of the US Military Industrial Complex. 🕊️ Butler's deployments included the Spanish-American War, Philippine-American War, Boxer Rebellion, American interventions in Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, the Haitian occupation, and WWI. These interventions were driven by imperialism and corporate cronyism, far from noble causes. ⚔️ The inherent corruption of the system turned Butler against war, inspiring him to write "War is a Racket." His book highlighted themes of war profiteering, exploitation of soldiers, and the misuse of American power for private gain. 📚 Even during the Great Depression, the US government abandoned veterans in need, as seen in the brutal breakup of the Bonus Army Demonstrators. This disregard for those who served is unforgivable. 🤝 Interventions like these are unacceptable violations of national sovereignty. Sacrificing American lives and dollars to bail out imperialistic endeavors and corporate interests is utterly corrupt and contemptible. 🛡️ Smedley Butler stood up to the military-industrial complex, fearlessly exposing these injustices. Let's remember his legacy today, on his 142nd Birthday, and strive for a world where peace, non-interventionism, and individual freedom prevail. 🕊️✨ #SmedleyButler #Liberty #WarIsARacket #NonInterventionism 🎂🕊️

Every time there is any conflict in the world, the government says it is our job to be the ultimate moral arbiter, and decide who's right and who's wrong. They proceed to fund, arm and train the military of the "right" side to destroy the "wrong" side, and use the forceful power of the state to extract wealth from all American citizens to fund the project. Any military alliances designed to avert such conflicts become entangling and only add fuel to the fire. Libertarians vehemently condemn any such interventionist programs. Blowback is real, and we should never involve ourselves in such foreign affairs of other nations.

On this day, May 12th, in 1933, President Franklin D Roosevelt signed the Agricultural Adjustment Act into law. Convinced that falling prices were hindering economic recovery, FDR decided that prices were now to be raised by any means necessary. They succeeded in raising the prices of food and clothing at a time when people were desperately poor. In the process, they slaughtered over six millions pigs and engaged in wholesale destruction of wheat and cotton supplies. Imagine that as more and more people fall into poverty, the correct response would ever be to destroy the food supply and raise prices. Government efficiency at its finest.
