Remember when COVID hit & some experts warned that 100k could die, and most people, including other experts said that was alarmist…then a million died and we shrugged?

When I tell you the US mil will be shooting Americans in the street it sounds alarmist; in 3 yrs we’ll shrug and say “of course.”

When my daughter was younger, I was reading her a book that contained something to the effect of: “you know those farts that go on so long you forget how they started?”

I still remember her staring at me dumbfounded as I laughed uncontrollably.

Myth: ICE agents lack proper training.

FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.

Lord give us the Democrats that Republicans warn us about.

Thune: "If the Democrats had won the majority, they probably would've tried to nuke the filibuster. And then you'd have four new senators from Puerto Rico and DC, you'd have a packed Supreme Court, you'd have abortion on demand ... "

“…offers advantages in exchange for far-reaching reforms…” is a choice

Everyone? No. We can’t get everyone to agree that the Earth is round.
But I imagine the history books will be in agreement.

Well when you put it like that….

➡️ National Guard/ICE/militia intimidation at polling places

And since those attacks would likely target a synagogue, mosque, or Democratic politician…all part of the plan.

His racism was balanced by his misogyny.

Critics say it may have racist undertones.

The military will get paid. He’s talking about us “deep-state” civil servants.

See my pinned post.
It’s almost like we did this for a living.

I’ll say it again: the Bond villains were very clear about what they intended to do (with the exception of the Musk/Doge shit show). If you voted for them, you voted for this. You own it. All of it.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

related, when the president is invading our own country, waging war on our own people, i don't wanna see dems give the GOP shit they ask for, don't wanna hear shit bout 'we hope our friends across the aisle will work with us on bipartisan solutions to the problems they cause' i don't want none of it

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.
