"A lot of people live better without having a job, than with having a job. I've had it where you have people and you want to hire them, but they can't take the job for a period of nine months because they're doing better now than they would with a job."
"You know what solves it? When the economy crashes, when the country goes to total hell, and everything is a disaster, then you'll have riots to go back to where we used to be, when we were great."
- Donald Trump, Fox News Interview, 2014

Well let Trump do it, but by the time he’s out of office we’ll figure out it was a mistake to let a president do that

Amy Coney Barrett defends heavy use of the shadow docket: "If we wrote a long opinion, it might give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue, and in none of these cases have we finally resolved the issue."

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

“Look. We’re all making so much money illegally it’s impossible to know what any one government official received on any given day. Let’s just assume he did. So what? What are you gonna do about it? Try to shame me into doing or believing the right thing? Forget it pal, those days are over.”

I find the spelling of shifty as “Schiffty” concerning and frankly offensive.

Trumps hair is reddish gold. How’s that work out Pete?

But if Trump is right about everything then Biden was president on January 6 and Trump was an auto pen president.

Am I doing this right?

No institutional design can overcome a lawbreaking president, a Congress defending lawbreaking and forfeiting its own power, a Supreme Court that pretends legal text doesn’t count to facilitate lawbreaking, and a citizenry that votes for all that.
Need at least one that wants rule of law. Maybe two.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

He’s a hollow man.

He decorates himself with things that others ascribe value to so that he will be valued.

The vastness of his need is the depth of his emptiness.

It’s an abyss.

And we’ve all been staring into it for way too long.

ha. only if he whines enough

trump is not averse to a little repetition, particularly when it involves humiliation

Mindhead @mrcathands.bsky.social · 1d

it’s like violent very fast soccer. Not a lot of scoring generally, but lots of build up and momentum. Fighting will likely happen and is accepted; allow for chaos and contained malice and you should have a pretty good time.

grim. what happens, historically, when an unstable regime doesn’t pay its troops I wonder.
