Remember, remember, the 5th of November (2024),
The Tyrant, treason and plot.
I see no reason
Why the Tyrant’s treason
Should ever be forgot.

Fact , Trump has made more money this year as president than he has his entire life.
And technically , he should not be making a dime.
Other than his presidential salary.

We can expect no honesty, no decency, and no humanity from this Presidential administration. It will be like this until the microsecond he leaves.

Our government is supposed to protect US not attack US
A government at war with its citizens is a government digging its own grave

Whenever a liberal says “Trump” or “ICE” all they mean is VBNMW.
They don’t actually care. They just want the power again.
Conversely Trump and the MAGAchuds do this same technique.
It’s always just about voting and the two party system that put us all here.
Then they blame independents.

Nihilistic-Narcissistic Nationalism: values are props, not constraints; identity replaces principle; the nation becomes a mirror for grievance. It’s dangerous because nothing limits power. Truth, law, and rights bend to emotion, loyalty, and spectacle.

Listen, people: We cannot have secret police in the U.S.
Masks are intended to stifle any accountability by ICE/CBP operatives.
It is indefensible in a functional democracy.
Period. Full stop.

The answer to power without restraint is not apathy, and not acceleration. It is legitimacy, rebuilt deliberately by people who refuse to surrender either their principles or their patience.

Trump is going to die, and soon. The apparatus that put him in place will still be there. Electing anyone not determined to tear it down will guarantee it will happen over and over and over. The Democratic establishment is not living up to the moment. We're allowed to be pissed at them over that.

Why are so many undocumented immigrants being held in detention for so long instead of being deported?
Simple. The billionaires who own the detention centers get paid for keeping people here. They don't get paid for people who get deported.
It's not about the law, it's about taking your money.
