This man might go to prison for allegedly wiping his phone before DHS officials could search it. No warrant for the phone, no specific claim of what 'evidence' might be on it. But he used a duress/wipe password, leading to the charge Watch more and subscribe here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmik...

‪I don’t know if I’ll just have to give up and leave. I don’t want these bastards to force me out of my home. I don’t want to leave it behind. I don’t even know how I’d relocate my cats safely if I had to. I can’t just abandon them. I’m devastated, but I don’t want to die.‬

I’m so fuckin’ tired. Living in hell on earth, constantly fearing for my life, health declining, anxiety through the roof, my whole body tense 24/7… and I still need to work, to squeeze some kind of creativity out of myself. I don’t know if I can keep going like this.

Poets have to speak for those who won't ever say anything They have to write to those who will never receive letters. To run a soot-covered finger across the white bandages. To lament in the voice of those whose voice has grown stiff. — PAVLO KOROBCHUK #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦
