Trump is a poor man’s idea of wealth, an ignorant man’s idea of greatness, and a weak man’s idea of strength. When he burns the country to the ground (again), when its economy collapses (again), brought down by his incompetence (again)—laugh in their MAGAt faces #Talibamicans

One last point before my break. If y’all MAGAts think about invading, you’ll win but we’ll bleed you like Ukrainians against Russia. I mean we will fuck you up like flannel wearing Mujahideen. Night!

I think I’ll take a break from US news. I’m losing my hope for humanity.

How’s Erika Kirk doing? Has she brought out a new line of Charlie hand towels at target yet?

Matter of time and merchandise contracts.

In the best story he saw a man with his hand behind his back but since he also had a crew of ICE he could not reasonably have assumed it was a gun. Also if it’s ok to assume it’s ok to attack someone this way because of where his hand is then it’s ok for anyone to do the same. Hope not.

The theater of fascism, where the only thing that's real is the fear that it intends to provoke.

But we have Israeli Jews who see no contradiction in being the Nazis in their own story. So I guess here we are. Black men as fascists and Jews behaving like Nazis.

damappples.bsky.social @damappples.bsky.social · 6d

Why does it feel weird and gross to see a black man behave this way? Like, I expect better since they’re a population that’s been so often the target of this same fascism.

I saw the she was armed, CBC morons. This is America. It’s legal and most are armed 🙄

On multiple occasions, demonstrators sitting on the ground attempting to block ICE vehicles from carrying detainees into the facility have been repelled by heavily armed ICE agents using physical force, chemical munitions and rubber bullets, evoking combat scenes.

The only bigger pieces of shit than Trump and his goon squad are Americans who voted for Trump and his goon squad.

As much as I hate Trump, I hate them more #MAGAts

These aren’t churches. They’re corporations and need to be taxed just like any corporation. These sickens me.

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory!

Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

I say it not to be an alarmist, but it’s impossible to ignore all the warning signs.

They have no intentions of abiding by the will of the people anymore.

Democratic governors and Dems in Congress need to be mobilizing now to fortify our elections, especially from threats posed by the Elon types.
