Same kind of guy who thinks Lee Greenwood would put on a real nifty halftime show

It's noon and only 65 degrees here in L.A. Is this what they call "fall" in other places? Wild.

Is ICE violating Trump's own EO about "anti-christian discrimination" or whatever?

The whole plan is to just wait until Republican lawmakers get fed up and magically become reasonable. Pipe dream.

he talks like an alien who is practicing how to imitate humans but isn't there yet

They lost me at "WaPo opinions podcast" lol sounds like my nightmares

Suddenly the YouTube video controls are all switched around on my TV I guess due to an app update. It's like everything is upside down. It's maddening. My controller muscle memory is all screwed up. Why TF do they do drastic shit like this with the UI we're all familiar with? 👎🏻

Oh no are "your" officers getting yelled at? Called bad names? So sad. That's some real terrifying terrorism right there. (also pretty sure that's not illegal)

They've just made ICE a shadow military force. It's not longer about immigration, and has unlimited funding and ZERO accountability. Who even needs the marines when you can send a bunch of idiot lackeys with a thirst for violence and no legal restrictions.

Kristi Noem says that anarchists run Portland and that she threatened local officials that if they didn't comply, DHS would send 4 times as many ICE agents.

"Bucking tradition" is a neat way to re-interpret "illegal" or "unconstitutional". I guess the constitution is just an outdated tradition now?

Wow surprising she was so easily able to navigate the warzone.

Wingo Shackleford (⌐■_■) @wingoshack.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah, I would agree with that. These people are just openly fascist now and will never be reasonable to work with, ever.

If we're sending troops to cities based on their murder rate, it's higher in St. Louis (this guy's state) than both Portland AND Chicago

He will pardon her and then she will have a mysterious car accident or something...

Wingo Shackleford (⌐■_■) @wingoshack.bsky.social · 1d

I was thinking the same. She'd better have an excellent security team.

When he does the "I barely even heard of the person" shtick it definitely means he's pardoning

Wingo Shackleford (⌐■_■) @wingoshack.bsky.social · 1d

"Trump's badass because he says what he wants and hates woke people" is the most they thought about it

Nah they're just too stupid to know what they were voting for and that's what the campaign was betting on

Wingo Shackleford (⌐■_■) @wingoshack.bsky.social · 1d

Same.

Wingo Shackleford (⌐■_■) @wingoshack.bsky.social · 1d

I thought it was Ice T

Wingo Shackleford (⌐■_■) @wingoshack.bsky.social · 1d

So the national guard/military are being sent in to "help" with basic law enforcement, something they are literally not trained for? Also, this directly contradicts what Miller is saying, which is that they need to protect federal buildings from "terrorists". Can't even keep their lies straight.

Wait, cops lied about what happened when they shot someone??? Shocking.
