This process was a long time coming. It will be handled. There is no blindside here. And it's important for everyone to know that acting rashly can make a lot of things a lot worse for a lot of people.

I absolutely endorse not doing anything without considering potential legal consequences for self and others. Acting rashly can very easily create legal trouble that is otherwise avoidable. For those interested in more info, Google 'popehat 18 USC 1001'

Non-cooperation can lead to incarceration for the length of the grand jury but is still the safest path for all activists, to think otherwise is to ignore the long history of grand juries concerning leftist movements. Build a wall of solidarity, never talk to feds!
-
It is important to note that not all people who may be vulnerable are leftists or anarchists, or able to sustain prolonged incarceration. Some were people literally just passing through.
-
Whoever those folks are, they need to understand the political context and the motivations of this administration and the feds regardless of their own politics. Maybe incarceration can’t be asked of all but all should be aware that cooperation can sink movements.
-
Of course. I am always advocating that everyone have the most complete picture.
