I would like to expel every effing ICE employee for their beliefs. Send them to that awful El Salvadoran prison.

Rubio has no spine and is dancing to 47’s tune.

Down with dictatorship!!

sciencetruth.bsky.social•5 days ago

If the court doesn't side with Khalil in this case America is gone!

ellisonx.bsky.social•5 days ago

so, with that reasoning, should a person get into office who believes everyone in the GOP is a lousy stinking traitor, then those GOPers could then be 'expelled,' right?
or how about expelling Christians, or people of different skin color?

Some pretty evil fuckers in the U.S. Even worse is they're running the country.

Deportation should be used against MAGA. Maybe then they'd understand. Eeeeessshhhh!

The first amendment really is just dead, isn’t it?

jpeghotdog77.bsky.social•5 days ago

No, the 2nd stands behind it in readiness.

nobodylikedit.bsky.social•5 days ago

Seems like the Constitution protects free speech and since people speak their beliefs, wouldn't that be protected the same way?

mawmamaof3.bsky.social•5 days ago

Now you’re sounding logical. This administration doesn’t do logic

nobodylikedit.bsky.social•5 days ago

Does anyone know if they have an actual roulette wheel with different crazy actions & policies on it or if they just play spin the bottle and whoever it landson has to come up with an idea on the spot? (Hegseth gets to drink shots when it lands on him.)

I cannot believe we're going to have to fight person by person for our rights while this regime kidnaps Americans by the hundreds...

I guess if you don't subscribe to their beliefs, you're at risk. Welp. I'm f*cked.

lindawarner.bsky.social•5 days ago

So we have become a nation filled with the thought police. If only I could remember another country that had similar beliefs, it's right there on the tip of my tongue...

Rubio is such a jackass

So much for Amendment 1. ☹️

Expelled for his beliefs??

From the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA????

regcalgary.bsky.social•5 days ago

Free speech? Only if the Trumpocracy agrees with it...

There was the Red Scare of the 50s and now we have the Brown Scare of 2025.

Up next: Rounding up citizens for their beliefs.

proftv.bsky.social•5 days ago

No he cannot. Fight like hell folks!

jpeghotdog77.bsky.social•5 days ago

They better fucking apply that to the neo-Nazis in this country

sanderson7575.bsky.social•5 days ago

In this country, the first amendment provides protections even for speech we disagree and/or are morally against.

So the Pilgrims or whoever left their home countries and traveled here cuz they were persecuted for their beliefs, now this gov't is persecuting people for THEIR beliefs. Got it.

scott53.bsky.social•5 days ago

The thought police are here, big brother is watching and listening.

And to all the gun rights people who won't even let us come up with sensible legislation because, "it's a slippery slope!",,, where y'all at? You really want to slide down this slope?

For his "beliefs"??? Send Rubio back to Cuba for his beliefs!!

I wish that Marco Rubio could be deported to Cuba for his beliefs or turned into a boat person.

Only fascist nations ruled by dictators punish people for their beliefs. It is blatantly obvious this is a coup. Five million protested in the streets on April 5. They can not silence or expel millions. Resistance must continue.

scarsandhearts.bsky.social•5 days ago

All that whining & screaming the left was indoctrinating while they then decide to try & police thought crimes. Republicans are going down in history as traitors to democracy & the real threat was always

THAT EVERY ACCUSATION IS A CONFESSION. Republicans want to police your thoughts & ideas. WTAF 🤯
