Trump is probably very correct, we just keep thinking the βweβ heβs referring to is the American public and working class and not his rich buddies.

Are those camo spanks heβs wearing?
Absolutely insane.
β¦ because the enemy to them is not only non-citizens (which is bad enough) itβs also Americans they deem unamerican enough to strip them of citizenship as well.
Is it bad that while I want the victims to get their property back I would also really like to see all the fucks involved including the attorneys defending ICEs actions in jail for contempt?
There has to be a way to make something like this happen.
Welcome to the newest US led forever war in the Middle East
I would like to see Pritzker and Newsom declare a state tax receivership fund whereby citizens pay their federal tax liabilities into a state-run escrow account rather than directly to the IRS.
The state can hold these funds in trust for the federal government until Trump obeys the Impoundment Act.
Maybe if theyβre spewing nonsense they canβt be held accountable for saying something false? Kind of like your discussion re: Pam Bondi not perjuring herself? π€·ββοΈ
I believe ICE specific funding under DHS was already βapprovedβ in the Big Beautiful Bill for the year. The funding in question that is now paused is for things like TSA. For nowβ¦ Ice is not slowing down.
The false accusations of their opposition are never in search of a moral high ground, it has always been about validating their own behavior.

AND β¦ I will add, the parties are NOT the same. Republicans are infinitely worse in their current form than democratsβ¦ but they didnβt bring us to our current situation alone.
β¦for citizens. Our societal structure is one of capitalism + democracy + social services & public works. We can argue the merits of that and make tweaks all day, but NO system works when it has been hijacked by leaches intent on sucking it dry for every penny.
Thx for coming to my ted talk :)
β¦intentionally broken by powerful people protecting their own greed and interests. There is not an industry that is not somehow captured, bought, and sold by the billionaire class and their counterparts in congress and government. Like religion, I believe there are many paths to positive outcomesβ¦
I donβt know why but I feel like I need to share this somewhere:
Donald Trump and the republican party are not solely responsible for all of the evil shit we see going on right now. An entire overhaul of politicians from republican to democrat would not fix the systems that have been β¦
We need more Melanie Stansburys!
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."
What a time to gut the epa
Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.
Examples of "the best government that money can buy" are becoming more depressing. Ohio Republican Senator Jon Husted accepted more than $115,000 in campaign contributions from Les Wexner, one of 6 people listed as Epstein's co-conspirators, and then voted against releasing the Epstein files.
You really really REALLY have to read the whole thing.
An innocent 5yr old boy in a bunny hat, spent more time in jail than any of Epstein's fellow abusers.
Think about that for a minute.
Iβve missed these!!!
Love the graphic :)

βDemocrats are afraid of what theyβll find in the Epstein Files. They donβt want full accountability.β
I will burn the Democratic Party to the ground and piss on the ashes if I find out our leaders were involved in a massive child sex trafficking operation. Every Democrat I know feels the same.

Maybe they donβt maintain or contribute to a federal database - but what about a privately owned one? Palantir? Flock?
