Didn't the people of Ohio approve an amendment to the State's constitution? Amazing how little that party cares about democracy.

Earlier I posted my view that the maggat plan is to ramp up tensions & incite violence with the intent of canceling the midterm elections. I thought some more & realized they are so incompetent it probably won't work. Then I realized taco will then just invalidate the results. Dangerous times.

ice absolutely must be eliminated

Release the lawyers

I'd argue that soul was rotting before taco took his elevator ride.

I'm old enough to remember having presidents who were decent human beings. Even those with politics very different from mine could be expected to follow the norms of a polite society. Make America not pro wrestling anymore.

Two thirds thru the fiscal year and ice is over budget. Should be fun seeing where they get more money from out of musk's "savings"

Walz didn't take his call. Over/under?

This hurts but must read

I remain convinced that they plan to suspend/cancel the midterm elections. They're trying to ratchet up tensions to the point where he invokes the Insurrection Act by Fall and then just never cancels it.

For MAGA influencers (both in and out of office), right-wing violence doesn't exist. When those on the right commit it, they are either secretly liberal (Minnesota shooter), it wasn’t actually violence (Jan. 6 “tourists”) or their victims deserved what they got (the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi).

The evil continues. Executive orders are not laws. Hope someone is suing over this.

So based on numbers , the Taco parade wouldn't have filled a fifth of Michigan Stadium The Big House. The No Kings rallies would have filled over 98 Michigan Stadiums. To give some perspective.

Isn't it weird how white terrorists are always captured alive? Don't get me wrong, I'm just asking questions here. Doing my own research and all. As one does.

taco's post tonite is an explicit declaration of war against his political rivals. Tomorrow, the Republican party will be silent or, if maggat, endorse. They're all-in because they know once he is defeated their political careers are over. They will be pariahs, and deservedly so. Dangerous times.

I hope to **** the feds don't try to step in and try him. Needs to be state all the way.

Dear America: can we now start thinking about a general strike? No one works until this dumbass is brought down.

Somebody didn't like their parade sucking ass

This is absolutely true --> I'd add *any* corporation telling you or your city/town that their plans will be broadly beneficial to the general populace is lying. They don't care about anything but profits.

Really good thread here -->

Much we can learn from nature ... see how the turtles swarm towards the one flailing to help it?

Our newest backyard visitor appears to be ... a raven? (or the biggest crow I've ever seen).

Does this turd have a *huge* tattoo of Nixon's face on his back? Yes, yes he does. #NuffSaid

Hmmmmm .... seems .... suspicious that they were heading away from the crime scene with passports & cash.

What won't happen because she only appears on Fox is anyone asking her to explain *in detail* the plan for "... fixing a broken farm-labor economy and restoring integrity to the American workforce." I don't believe they have a plan beyond more whites doing jobs they've already said they don't want

I need this as a mouse pad, a calendar, a t-shirt and a coffee mug.

Saw a post that taco telling ICE to back off on farm/hospitality raids will play poorly in court cases. Judges will rightly be able to ask: if not all undocumented are a threat what factors are used to determine which are? Oh? It's just one guy's order? That seems ... capricious & arbitrary. Hmmm.

Not for nothing but our 8 year old granddaughter very much wants to go to a protest with us. Her parents have explained to her what's going on, what's a stake, and she wants to be part of fighting back. Not for nothing but at 8 the best I could do is cry in my backyard when the '69 Cubs wilted.

Captured by the lower landing trail camera ... one robin feeding a berry to another which based on plumage we think may be a juvenile? (note: we're obviously not bird experts)

These cops and the cop who shot the Aussie reporter with a rubber bullet should be fired. Full stop. There are more to be let go, too. Review the videos and start disciplinary actions, Mayor Bass.

Oh hell yes
