He needs to be identified and arrested for assault. There is absolutely no grounds for him firing at a reporter and her crew who represent no threat whatsoever.

He knows Garcia will be used as a show trial with the result already fixed. They will find him guilty, then deport him again.

So, no attempt at arrest, just a vicious determination to give the helpless guy a violent beating.

The same chaos that marked his first presidency is being repeated double this time round. It's so fucking tiring having to see what toys this fuckwitted man-baby will throw out of his pram each bloody day. If only it wasn't so damn serious for the future of US democracy.

Maybe wipe your arse on their steak before you serve them. I think they might notice if you do afterwards.

A lot of my emotional wellbeing is leveraged on the potential that Trump becoming president for a second term is also an example of the Mandela Effect.

The case for the secession of California from the USA (which it largely funds) has now increased exponentially. What a terrible time for US democracy

We had civil unrest during Biden’s administration but they were the people against the state. Trump’s riots are the state against the people.

Call a spade a spade: ICE are a state sponsored paramilitary organisation. No one knows who they are, they act without any accountability and with complete impunity. This is a crisis point for US democracy

This is pure 1930s Nazi Germany Goebbels playbook. Create a myth of imminent insurrection to justify an authoritarian military crackdown on the population. Expect a "Reichstag" style event soon to justify imposition of martial law. The Constitution is in serious peril.
