Is it possible Trump simply doesn't want the government open, period, and has no intention of trying to open it back up at all?

Completely unhinged that the LAPD can just go out and beat the shit out of people for no reason and the City Council literally does not care. How has Jim McDonnell not be removed from his position?

The more aggressive police response to protests has coincided with the new tenure of Chief McDonnell, and signed off by Mayor Bass.

LAPD is going to start gassing people tonight. The dept rarely ever deployed tear gas at protests in the past and now does on a regular basis.

Hi @mayor.lacity.gov, is this political violence something you denounce?

It's really too bad no one fought fire with fire in 2021. Or 2022 through 2024.

I still can't help but think that if Democrat mayors and governors actually opposed ICE's actions in their cities/states, this entire mass deportation push would be over already and so many people would be spared.

There’s a name for this.

Also I am shocked that Freddie's bulge made it past the network censors. 😶

Haha I was just looking up all the actors to see who was still alive

Watching an episode of "Welcome Back, Kotter" where Horshack joins a cult and they try to deprogram him and it just so happens that this episode was filmed at the exact same time John Travolta joined Scientology.

Contra Obama when Trump posts a poop video it isn’t a distraction. It’s another way to tell the voters that support him that they are superior to the voters who backed Obama. The better response isn’t to hand wave it away but for Obama to say his voters are not little weasels who shit on America.

lol he turned off comments. I guess he got tired of seeing actual evidence.

Trump wants riots. He wants to see people looting supermarkets. He wants an excuse to send the military into every major city. It feels too obvious to say, but we have to say it and we have to keep saying it.

Man, I can’t get fucking toilet bowl cleaner with my SNAP benefits. If it ain’t food you cook yourself, it ain’t going on the card

You can't make this up.

criminal liability for individual guardsmen, more and more people are saying

Tyler Robinson's (the alleged "assassin" of Charlie Kirk) trial was postponed to January. Luigi Mangione got a dramatic perp walk, tons of media coverage, a full biography in every single mainstream media outlet. With Tyler? Crickets. Huh.

You can’t even use SNAP to buy a hot rotisserie chicken unless you live in a state with a special waiver.

We're currently at the "Jesus didn't say we should feed people"
portion of the fall of American Evangelicalism.

If you think I'm exaggerating, here's a news article listing the supposed crimes of the detained: wtop.com/dc/2025/11/d...

The reasons? One person arrested because they possessed a "prohibited weapon" (could be literally anything they deemed a weapon), someone smoking marijuana in public, and a few people who refused to "obey". They were called in because teens were going to the park. Insane.
