@CarterSkeel Does your 4y/o finish their beer at the dinner table regularly before asking to be dismissed? If not, they must understand giving up beer should be a sacrifice not something they already avoid.

I watched an ICE agent paint a fake road on the side of a wall and then moments later a sweet, poor undocumented citizen drove his car into it and instantly died.
This is what's happening in America
When ICE shows up in Texas, they go to the local jail and take these people into custody.
When they arrive in Minneapolis, they've got to go door knocking because the local police have been told to not cooperate with feds.
It's that fucking simple. That's how it works.
RE: Fraud in Minnesota
I’m not sure that most Americans understand that in large swathes of humanity, there is no actual concept of “fraud,” particularly fraud against the government. Instead, there is a belief in the virtue of getting away with what you can to help yourself and your tribe.
I spent a lot of my life in the Middle East and Central Asia, working closely with foreign contractors and foreign governments to provide support to American military operations. As a US Army officer with a big checkbook courtesy of Uncle Sam, I can’t really count the sheer number of times I was offered bribes to award a contract, or falsify records to do things like create larger (fake) headcounts at places like dining facilities, or to just simply be on the take for future illegal requests.
Of course I had enough sense to never comply with such requests. Moreover, they were never explicitly structured as “bribes”; instead it was usually along the lines of “Here I have these Rolexes as gifts for you and your wife to show our friendship.” (Unfortunately, too many US officers and NCOs succumbed to this siren song and ended up breaking rocks in Leavenworth.)
The weird thing about this to me was that whenever I turned down such an offering, it was treated as a grave insult. I was the one in the wrong, and not the fraudster trying to bribe me. They considered it rude that I was in their country and refused to accept how things got done. After all, why did I not want to help my tribe by helping their tribe?
Let me repeat: in these cultures, FRAUD IS NOT EVEN A CONCEPT. There is only what helps your tribe.
Such thought processes are so alien to Americans and much of the West. We are raised on the presumption that our institutions are valid, that the rule of law always prevails, and that integrity is universal. We need these presumptions to have working governments and economies, and without those presumptions—without the mental barrier that causes us not to accept outright fraud—our nation would quickly descend into the economic and social hellscape of countries like…. ummm… you know…. SOMALIA!
So when we import people en masse from cultures that accept bribery and fraud as routine, acceptable ways to advance one’s tribe, we should not be surprised that things like the $8 BILLION fraud schemes of the Somali population in Minnesota happen so easily.
Introducing a fraud-based culture based on tribalism into America is like introducing some sort of lethal virus into a population that has no natural immunity. The virus will spread and grow, unchecked, because it is so alien to the host. Similarly, a culture of fraud is anathema to American thinking, and it must be cut out before it consumes the host.
So when you see and hear patriotic Americans decrying what is happening in Minnesota or elsewhere, and when they seek deportation of the offenders, it is not “racism,” it is not “bigotry,” it is not “xenophobia”; instead, it is preserving the American tradition of responsible institutions and national integrity.
The preternaturally uncharismatic Somalis have given Trump an incredible gift.
- moral cover to denaturalize Ilhan Omar, setting the precedent of denaturalizing and deporting subversive foreign infiltrators even if they are elected federal representatives
- moral cover to denaturalize and deport the entire Somali community, setting the precedent that groups can be removed en masse without trying to untangle the rat's nest of exactly who did what specifically
- clear implication that Tim Walz knew about and facilitated the fraud, which delegitimizes the Democratic Party as they tried to make that corrupt clown vice president
- excuse to arrest Tim Walz, setting the precedent that governors can be arrested
- excuse to arrest senior state officials
- excuse to arrest senior municipal officials
- excuse to place Minnesota under a provisional military government, pending fair and free elections (after the corruption has been excised, i.e. the Democrat machine has been completely dismantled)
Making it all the more beautiful is that this happened in the state of Fentanyl Floyd.
Speaking of which, Derek Chauvin was wrongfully convicted in the gangster state of Minnesota. Was that a fair trial? How corrupt were the officials who prosecuted and convicted him?
Trump probably won't do any of this.
But he absolutely should, not just because it would be very popular (and it would), but because it would set a whole bunch of precedents that would prove very useful in other states run by the Democrat mafia.
I, a moderate, will neither be lying to my child nor denying him Santa, nor passing up the opportunity to teach him a life lesson. My wife and I will be staging a detailed, tragic death of Santa scene on the street outside our house, killed by a Bangladeshi truck driver
