Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

Did you know Nixon never served a day in prison because he was pardoned?
But his Attorney General did.
His Chief of Staff did.
His Domestic Affairs Adviser did.
His Special Counsel did.
His campaign chairman did.
Even members of his re-election committee did time.

Why is everyone afraid of an imbecilic, functionally illiterate sourball rapist? What the FUCK does he have on people? Everyone kisses his dumb ass. Even world leaders! Why won’t Republicans who hate his guts (they all secretly loathe him) take their Article One powers back?? He’s killing us all!

“Ah yes, Melania — suddenly the great peacemaker who spent four years ghosting America, plagiarizing Michelle Obama, and promoting birtherism. Meanwhile, Jill Biden teaches, volunteers, and comforts grieving families. The only ‘cover-up’ here is your memory, Congressman.”

MAGA:

Donald Trump.

Doesn’t give a shit.

About you & me.

He doesn’t care.

Russ Vought never even pretended to care.

STOP. VOTING. FOR SOCIOPATHS.

He’s getting away with it because he built a cult, not a movement. The GOP fears him, billionaires bankroll him, and media profits off the chaos. Corruption looks like “winning” to his base—but it’s just accountability with a price tag none of us can afford.

“Nine years straight as America’s best big city — and Trump still called it a ‘war zone.’ Maybe the bullets he heard were the sounds of jazz, deep-dish fans, and actual diversity. Chicago didn’t need his troops — just earplugs for his nonsense.”

Seriously, MAGA: How did you see it turning out well, when you voted to give Donald Trump and Republicans another turn?

They're doing everything shitty they did the first time, only worse, with military occupation of our cities as the rancid cherry on top.

The irony writes itself — the man who called COVID a hoax just rolled up his sleeve for the booster. It’s like watching the arsonist proudly installing smoke alarms. MAGA logic: “Do as I say, not as I jab.” Somewhere, Dr. Fauci just poured himself a very satisfied glass of wine.

They have to have a backup plan to the "dangerous immigrants" narrative. They have one. They've literally created a "terrorist group" out of thin air. I mean, you can't be having free and fair elections with "enemies from within," like the "Antifa Terrorist" group running around. It's a pretext.

The widespread media decision to frame international affairs as "will Donnie get the prize he wants?" is pathetic.

He's not the protagonist of human events. And to the extent he's a significant character in world affairs, whether or not he gets a prize is one of the least important things about it.
