@DHSgov This is open white supremacist eugenics coming from the President and DHS.
This is gutter neo-Nazi propaganda, the kind of shit you find in the manifestos of mass shooters.
It would be scarier if it weren’t coming from a man who’s on the verge of not being able to feed himself.
Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.
If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.
The European mind understands it perfectly. This is what imperial decadence looks like: public institutions converted into branded spectacle, civic memory replaced by adrenaline theater, and the People’s House turned into a content backdrop for regime propaganda.
The joke is not that Europe cannot comprehend it. The joke is that America no longer recognizes what it is becoming.
@HappyPunch This is what I wanted when 'Mixed' Martial Arts was starting. Actual different fighting styles instead of a bunch of creatine fuled schoolyard brawls.
Oil prices today: $105.25 a barrel
Gas prices today: $4.46 a gallon
Oil prices in March 2011: $105.06 a barrel
Gas prices in March 2011: $3.51 a gallon
Big Oil is using the Iran War to rip off Americans at the gas pump.
Let’s end the Iran War & pass a windfall profits tax-NOW.
@TheDemocrats Glad to see you come the fuck around to progressive populism.
I mean, I know you're doing it out of desperation and lack of other options, but maybe now you'll realize that you really fucked up in 2016 when populism was the clear choice, but you insisted on business-as-usual.
what happened to laws are threats made by the dominant socioeconomic ethnic group in a given nation it's just a promise of violence that's enacted and police are basically an occupying army
Remember way back in 2015, there was an exercise called Jade Helm 15, and the far right was convinced Obama was turning empty Walmarts into secret detention camps?
Maps, Facebook posts, panic about military takeovers. An ordinary special operations training exercise became a full-blown conspiracy. Nothing happened. No camps. No mass detentions. A big nothing-burger and we sane people knew nothing would happen.
Now, less than a decade later, actual billions are being spent on warehouse-style facilities for potential mass detention tied to "immigration enforcement."
And the same kooky people who once screamed about imaginary camps are either silent or cheering.
So when it was a made-up fear under a Democratic president, it was "tyranny."
When it’s a real policy under Trump, it’s suddenly “law and order.” It turns out the panic was never about government overreach. It was about who they wanted to be in charge of it.
@SenSusanCollins With all due respect (none):
Please fuck off.
Feckless neoliberalism and plundering neoconservatism have fed the fires of America's nascent facism.
You are an epitome of both
No one can explain to me how what I did in Iraq and Afghanistan made anyone's lives better in Sullivan, Maine.
We get dead soldiers, dead civilians, and young men and women with nightmares and drinking problems. And a Raytheon exec gets another yacht.
🚨BREAKING: ICE agents are now threatening to violently assault U.S. citizens for the crime of sitting in their own car, in a parking lot…
Yes. Literally that.
ICE agents are now claiming U.S. citizens are not allowed to be in the same parking lot as them.
In the video, you can hear an agent approach a person sitting quietly in their car and announce that he is ICE, and that other ICE agents are also in the parking lot…
Then the agent immediately issues what he calls his “one and only warning.”
The person responds, “I was just on the phone.”
The agent responds, “No. No you’re not.”
The agent then escalates to a direct threat of violence, saying…
“This is your one and only warning. I catch you here again, I’m yanking you out of that fucking car because you’re taking pictures on your little GoPro.”
So, to be clear… a U.S. citizen is being threatened with assault not for impeding, not for interfering, not for committing any crime…
…but for having a dash cam.
The agent then adds, “If anything happens to our vehicles, or anybody in here, I’m coming straight for you.”
Then more threats…
“I will yank you out of that fucking car, and I will fucking put charges on you.”
Charges for what? He never says. Because there are none.
And then he admits the quiet part out loud…
“I’ll put you in the fucking domestic terrorists app.”
A federal agent threatening to label a U.S. citizen a “domestic terrorist” for sitting in a car while having a dash cam.
And then the agent illegally orders the U.S. citizen to “get the fuck out” of the parking lot and tells him he is not allowed to return.
To break that all down… an ICE agent used intimidation, retaliation, and threats of violence against a U.S. citizen for exercising their First Amendment rights, and existing in a public space.
And then banned the U.S. citizen from returning to the public space.
So, just to be absolutely clear…
The Trump administration is conditioning the public to obey masked federal agents, without questions and without rights.
