I work in a field closely related to gov’t work, very closely. I stopped talked about my politics, when I was an outspoken supporter of workers and human rights before, when Biden tanked his debate. I also weigh the pros and cons of saying anything here, too.
But, it’s not just minority now, although I am the minority at work… it’s gov’t censorship and retaliation against those that don’t toe the line.
What are you talking about? That old tire out there in the yard? The tractor sized one? Totally going to become a; work out tire, tire swing, large plant pot, retaining wall/bench combo for a tree, decorative whatsit for the holidays, social spot, pool, etc.
One of these days, just wait, it’ll even raise my (abysmal) property value.
I live at the office during the week, and am texting this in my bed in a converted office in one of our buildings on our footprint. Sure, it’s convenient… but, being away from home sure as hell isn’t. I’m putting in for an open position 30 minutes away from home, instead of 4hrs.
Well, ignoring the principle of the matter of denaturalizing and deporting American citizens (whether we don’t like them or not), let’s take a look at his threats to revoke Birth right Citizenship. Combine that with his threats of Denaturalization… and we can see that this provides his DOJ with the ability to go as far back as he wants to revoke citizenship for almost anyone in the US.
You posted memes here about the president? Well, your great grandfather was illegal, so his status has been retroactively revoked, making your entire line non-citizens, so you’re no longer a US citizen, and now we’re deporting you.
I’m not putting it past him. We are witnessing authoritarianism right now. It’s coming. At some point they won’t even give excuses or provide evidence or facts anymore. He’ll merely dictate your expulsion and no one will be able to refuse.
I’m just glad he forgot his signature block.
There was rumor that the site of the brush fire was a former Nazi sympathizing group’s camp, that was burned down as part of fire fighter training 20-years ago to the day of the shooting… so, big if true.
Last time I watched it, back in high school, it always felt like “because, ‘plot’”.
Next it’s going to be attacks against VPNs.
I watched both versions of the Rebel Moons…
I accidentally elbowed my partner in the eye one time while changing positions, I really hurt her and was surprised that she didn’t get a black eye. Needless to say we had to stop for a good 10 minutes for her to recover and that was it for the night.
It’s a test run, that they’re winning. They are proving that they can pick up anyone and obfuscate endlessly and there’s nothing you can do. This combined with other use cases will end with natural born US citizens being blacked bag a la KGB.
Not even just that, they couldn’t have prevented it if they wanted to. The person who would have prevented it would have been fired and replaced with a stooge once Hegseth’s men told him to shut up and he refused.
YYYYMMDD, scrub out the excess fat!
Lots of ‘Citizen Soldiers’ taken from their full time careers and family, at the (yuge) expense of tax payers, for no reason.
Why’s he actively picking fights here, and stirring the pot? To further excite the populous to open ‘rebellion’, and to ‘justify’ martial law.
Once he’s POTUS For Life, and has declared himself King, his lands will be nationalized and become tax payer funded.
Not always, he chickens out when the cost of doing something is less more* (edit: can’t believe I missed that one) than the gain. For this? Invoking total control of the US to crush dissent and his political opponents, and to push his agenda and further strip the US to the bone? Very likely worth it.
You’d be surprised, also regarding federalization for immigration enforcement and protest control. Who’s to say that the courts don’t weigh in on the side of CA and limit the use of CA-NG by the POTUS, and then he brings in a neighbor state’s NG instead? These are wild times, they even activated the Marines… on top of NG. This is crazy stuff.
