When then midterm is done, if the democrats win, the head of DHS (Markwayne Mullin) should be hauled in for contempt of Congress, then thrown in jail. Every agent involved should be put on a list of people unemployable in America and their contacts all investigated and any hint of foreign influence should turn this into treason and conspiracy charges for every last one. It seems we’re paying for a firing squad and money is tight, so let’s get our value out.

I get that this won’t happen, but if Democrats need to compromise, let’s start negotiations from this position.

430 trumps should be chopped down to restore the balance.

“One income family” makes sense when he thinks of everyone working at Amazon as family.

I appreciate your sentiment against violence more than the community at large. While I do hate needless divisiveness, as many others have already said in this instance the person in question made a conscious choice to enact the hateful, barbaric policies of the trump administration as the instrument of violence for personal profit.

We who cherish tolerance must be the most mindful of the tolerance paradox.

It should be legal to shoot ice agents, on duty or off, particularly if they, as usual, are masked and not following police procedures. And if the man was afraid for his life, as he definitely should have been if an ice agent was involved, the precedent set by multiple high profile recent cases in other states is that it was legal. I hope that jury finds the same.

As long as he dies on it fast, I think we’ll all be satisfied.

Nobody with as much as average intelligence will use the term ‘super intelligence’ to describe LLMs.

They brought their kids with them, so slightly more, though it may take a few years.

They’ll publish anything these days. His “book” is just a shitty middle school level essay and by his age he ought to be ashamed to so confidently state such an opinion in those terms. This pathetic sophomore is meant to uphold the constitution, not some religious dogma.

What people will rightly take away from this deplorable example is that supreme court judges are nothing special. They’re not more moral, more intelligent, nor do they hold greater understanding of the constitution than anyone else who actually read the full document. And such a takeaway is called disgrace. His actions and existence damage the reputation of the court.

The only reason I wouldn’t want him to resign in shame (if he can experience shame) is that his successor will be appointed for loyalty to trump and not qualifications, which is definitely a side grade to the current state.

Yeah… This is the face of a guy hunting humans on that land. He probably got the land there instead of a more private island somewhere remote in order to have lower latency to drones in Ukraine.

That and the food.

I grant you, enforcing unjust laws isn’t ideal. But pull your head out of your ass, the air up there is killing your brain!

There’s worse ways to enforce bad laws. The rights of the accused is an older and more powerful revolutionary idea than whatever toothless shit “state oppression of the working class” is meant to represent, though it isn’t clear you understand the shape behind that shadow.

You’re embodying the joke here. Don’t let the fantasy of a perfect world that exists in your dream blind you to the realities of the one we’re in.

In addition, look at how enforcement was conducted. Due process. Warrants. No shooting protesters, no mass raids.

And all the other stuff trump has failed at which anyone could have done better by doing nothing at all.

The one who turns into a giant snake and then wins will be the greatest villain of all time since that otherwise never works. Doesn’t count if you win first and then turn into a giant snake.

I saw a driver brake for children at a crosswalk once, stop being hyperbolic. /S

People get all pedantic about the exact legal definition of treason, forgetting that the word has a common understanding of betraying one’s country.

We don’t need to litigate the specifics, trump has done treason.

I hope it’s painful and that he burns all the way down.

It’s happening in Germany. It’s happening in France. It’s happening in Australia and Canada and Italy and Japan and pretty much everywhere. Somehow, in spite of a proven record of failure and catastrophic consequences, right wing ideology continues to grow like a cancer across the globe.

The US got to this point with help from foreign billionaires, as well as domestic ones. Elon Musk, Rupert Murdoch, Sundar Pichai… The grift is global and putting your vitriol toward those who might take your side will leave you friendless when it happens to you where you live.

People gave up instead of showing up and that was a costly mistake.

Many people mean well, even if they live in bad places. Have the grace to encourage them to keep resisting, even if that resistance is as small as protest or even voting, for your own sake.

The trump presidency is like getting fitted for glasses. Every time people fail to see how stupid he and the right wing ideology he embodies is, he adjusts the strength of the lenses. How blind do you have to be not to see it yet? Stick around, he’ll do something dumber in a moment!

By that age you’d have seen such an event almost 20 times, give or take. You know how it turns out and don’t need to see it for yourself, you can just get the highlights later if anything abnormal happens.
