This is a big reason I still have optimism. In four years if we restore law and order, and get past MAGats yelling that it’s personal, all those groupies and hangers on can face justice for defrauding the country, flouting bribery laws, violating human rights, defying the constitution …… and turnip in chief won’t be there to pardon them.

I hope to see them all in jail. I hope to se his contemptuous children start a new dynasty in jail.

If you were thinking of heading this direction, Canada is a great place to visit.

Until we recover our sanity, your tourist dollars are better spent pretty much anywhere else

I’d go even farther. Since there’s been precious little due process, essentially none are criminal. Essentially none of those deported have been convicted of any crime.

And no, I’m not taking the word of the people who deprived them of that right while hiding their own faces

You could easily argue she was deported for trying to take the legal route. They grabbed her from her green card hearing

Realistically I’m sure it’s just laziness. ICE has quotas to meet and they realize they can’t meet them while performing due diligence. So, instead of finding and convicting criminals, set ambushes at immigration courts and places of work. It shows both the stupidity of quotas and the reality of creating “criminals” where none existed before

What’s your goal in using fake info? If it’s general privacy, it’s easy enough to register where your info is private to the registrar

Yeah but I don’t know how this happened in the first place, we’ve had decades of horse running screaming out of that barn, decades of smelling the smoke from that dumpster fire, my entire life of what a horrible person he is and why is he still in the news. Yeah, it’s decades late to close that barn door, decades late to suffocate that fire. Mango Mussolini is the very definition of failing his way upward. There was never a good reason for him to lead us out of a paper bag, and it kept getting worse

I can only assume that insipid tv show he paid for to rehabilitate his image actually worked. Do people actually believe reality tv? Did everyone forget the decades of evidence before then? Did you actually pay attention to the script?

Those stats might affect the adoration of his groupies, and how many are re-elected.

Most horribly of all, we have Vance thinking he can step into the big orange footprints to be ordained next. We can’t have that weasel elected. It would be more of the same but more evil, less self-centered gibberish

Looks like these were the guys who would have warned everyone when Iran was s ending someone over for revenge. I guess terrorism never happens if you close your eyes, cover your ears, and loudly say “LA LA LA. I CANT HEAR YOU. LA LA”

Apparently they’re not even allowed an open floor to talk, but Hakeem Jeffries at least took the opportunity for 08:44

No, you don’t blame the bear. You cage it in a zoo or euthanize it for getting too comfortable around people.

They apparently don’t realize that. I have no idea what’s in the mind of people voting so against their own interests, but

• if they’re low information, she speaks up to communicate more
• if they’re gullible, she speaks up to get them to realize
• if people have a general despair, she speaks up to connect that to the perpetrator.
• if people have no attention span, she speaks up to keep it in the spotlight
• if people think “both sides the same”, she speaks up to say we’re different

At this moment I guarantee you that way too many people still think we’re reducing ” waste, fraud and abuse”, way too many people believe 150 year old dead immigrants are ruining our Medicaid. In the next congressional election, only a little more of a year from now, I guarantee you that far too many voters will have forgotten this issue existed or who created it, believe that this time Republicans support family values and being fiscally responsible.

No, it would be blue states (not just California) setting aside in escrow money owed to the federal government, while pursuing a legal suit for the federal government to follow through on its commitments. This is a legit approach for an individual with a complaint against a business like a landlord, so it seems like you could pursue similar logic

The law does allow you to withhold payments to someone who owes you. For example, it’s legitimate to withhold rent from your landlord as long as you are setting it aside and have a legitimate habitability case ongoing.

This should follow the same logic

I’m sure he means evil, but wearables really can be a boon to health. His agency really needs to be more proactive with establishing privacy protections and certifying accuracy’s/correctness, to make this really take off.

I mean yeah, I didn’t claim this action was morally or even strategically acceptable, just that it seems consistent with the way past administrations have used the same power.

And that’s kind of a problem. As far as I see, this use of the war powers act is entirely consistent with previous uses. Trumps not wrong for once.

Maybe the part about not bothering to inform Congress because “they’ll see it in the news”.

Our outrage seems to be mainly that he chose poorly, or maybe even that we haven’t been conditioned to agree with it. Iran has been pursuing nuclear weapons for years(decades?) and I certainly agree the world becomes a more dangerous, unstable place as more countries obtain nuclear weapons. Sanctions haven’t been working, but you combine this with Israel’s assassinations and it should be effective at stopping their program.

Of course I don’t know that anyone tried negotiating from a point of respect for their sovereignty nor was this in response to hostilities against our Interests or any urgent threat (that we’re aware of). You can’t just bomb people you disagree with, but this really seems consistent with previous administrations and the only difference is the propaganda war to manipulate support

But he also has a personal 747, all that meme coin, huge profit on sneakers, etc

And don’t forget the superPAC money covering legal and other personal expenses

He’s always been able to afford good enough lawyers to delay any proceedings for years, and he can’t have very many left. Given his open grift and straightforward bribes, monetizing the office, I image he’s finally the billionaire he always claimed to be, so he can afford it

Fantastic! But we need more granularity. What year within that 18-64 range is the crossover where odds turn into our favor! If I’m going to die early, at least I may finally get the advantage before I ho
