Except he does not have plenary authority. They can claim he does all he wants, but he doesn’t. That’s not going to stop you ding dongs from just letting him have that much authority, though because you can’t seem to follow your own fucking laws anymore.

They should all be charged with treason, and thrown in prison, really.

Pritzker needs to start arresting ICE agents — he has that authority.

Still having that affair, huh…

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

Pssst… the team is comprised of a whole lot of Americans…. also, Toronto sucks balls.

If you guys let Trump and his co-conspirators get away with their coup attempt on J6 — even allowing them to run for re-election — as well as letting Trump get away with stealing a fuck tonne of classified docs, there’s no chance in hell you guys are going to do anything about the fascists.

Also… so many fucking quotation marks for no reason.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

Again… is it State or Federal? Because he can’t pardon State, afaik.

And that’s not sarcasm

He probably did

Only “brutal” if Community Notes on that dumpster fire of a platform actually mattered. They have absolutely zero impact on anything, and people need to stop putting on this unnecessary pedestal of accountability.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

You know why

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

No they weren’t

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

Honestly, they should have denied them any service.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

Neither is sending troops to U.S. cities or blowing up fishing boats in international waters or any of the tariffs.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

Pritzker should have them all arrested.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

Nope. We won’t. Ya done fucked yourselves.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

You know you have the authority as Governor to arrest ICE agents, yeah?

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

The thing about that is… if the U.S. did nothing to Trump or his co-conspirators regards the coup attempt on J6, or the stolen classified docs, you can bet your ass that nothing will happen to these fascists if they ever get out of this situation. The system is too hellbent on protecting them.

When has the Trump administration ever followed the law, though?

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

And Raju should have followed it up again with: How about now?

But if course not because that would mean holding them accountable for shit.

Ryan Statz @ziggurcat.bsky.social · 1d

@mark-carney.bsky.social so nice that you can sit there, smiling, as Trump vows to “take care” of people in the same manner a mob boss “takes care” or people.

They’re fine with it, obviously. So are the 800 generals/admirals who sat silently in a room last week, bending the knee to their dear leader.
