Trump is talking like he won't be around for another year of Nobel consideration...

🤔

🙋‍♂️ Are we being threatened with a good time? 🤷‍♂️

Trump: "This will be my 8th war I've solved. And I hear there's a war now going between Pakistan & Afghanistan. I said, 'I'll have to wait until I get back. I'm doing another one.' In fairness to the Nobel committee, this was picked for 2024. But there are those who say you could make an exception"

🙋‍♂️ Maybe this is another reason why Trump thinks he will not be allowed into the kingdom where streets are paved with gold

Interesting point here from @lutzfernandez.bsky.social: MAGA hates their designated enemies of the moment (blue America, migrants, etc) so much that they're enthusiastically taking their rage out on their children, too:

Trump is in negotiations with heaven over tariffs

Experts are saying heaven would do well to consider a name change... Trump Tower Eternity

Trump: "I don't think there's anything that's gonna get me in heaven. I think I'm not maybe heaven bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to make heaven."

Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon,
which cuts without wounding and
ennobles the man who wields it.

It is a sword that heals.

I hope that doesn't happen

...but if you WERE trying to throw enough gasoline on the fire to cause an explosion, I don't know how you could do it more efficiently than what Trump & his thugs are doing

The only way tRUMP can stay in power forever
is to foment a civil war and use the insurrection act

The cruelty and atrocities from ICE are still early days phase

It is going to get steadily worse as $Billions flow into the effort
and tens of thousands more masked thugs hit blue state streets

🚨 Clearly, the Trump fascist regime
is using state sponsored terrorism
in blue cities & blue states
attempting to foment civil war,
or civil unrest so they can
declare an emergency
or invoke the Insurrection Act,
deploy martial law &/or
suspend habeas corpus

This un-American BS has to be stopped

Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @joshuaeakle.com · 1d

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

The carnage being wreaked on so many of our vital institutions is just gut-wrenching.

It betrays the good faith obligation to safeguard the best interests of the public.

This kind of reckless disregard for human life should be counted as criminal & those who enable it should be held to account.
