A piece of advice for any armed services member who follows these orders. It didn’t end well for the gestapo, ss, and the rest of that sorry bunch. Fascists ultimately always lose. This isn’t a threat. It is simply a history lesson. Think carefully about your next actions my friends.

So let me get this straight…
Trump floats deporting American citizens to El Salvador, and now DHS is announcing a new Global Entry partnership with El Salvador?
You can’t make this up.
They’re setting up the infrastructure for authoritarianism — and dressing it up as “efficiency.”

Yes, this Cabinet — with a Fox & Friends drunk, a Real World airhead, a former heroin addict who beheaded a whale, a dog killer, a Russian stooge, a scandal-plagued wrestling executive, etc — this Cabinet is LITERALLY the best America has ever had.
Thank you for that insight, Elon. Smart as ever.

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?

Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out.
Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.
Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.
