WARNING: dickless-donny is looking for ANYTHING to start a real war. If you want a war, just move back home to RUSSIA, you effing idiot.

fucketsofrain.bsky.social•10 days ago

Feels like an excuse to invade Canada and Mexico too. Trying so hard not to be alarmist but the pieces just keep falling into place.

shoshiroll.bsky.social•10 days ago

Sudetenland 2.0 is gonna be the border with mexico

weggles.bsky.social•10 days ago

Yeah after the endless 51st state talk and the made up garbage about tons of fent coming from Canada etc........

Republicans never stopped being warmongers, they just saw how everyone got mad at McCain for wanting to bomb Iran and got better at hiding it until they had basically the entire federal government in their hands.

They’ve been drooling over war with Mexico since Bush

junlper.beer•10 days ago

absolutely this, they want to send troops into mexico. people forget but during the first republican primary debate for 2024 vivek ramaswamy brought up doing that and everyone up there treated it like that was normal

antiquequaalude.bsky.social•10 days ago

Trump literally told John Bolton during his first term that he wanted to missile strike Mexico but magically make it so they didn't know it was us doing it.

canyounotmydude.bsky.social•10 days ago

United States vs. The rest of NATO (except probably Hungary because uhh…) AND the entire Commonwealth. Wonderful

darkinnerside.bsky.social•10 days ago

The Commonwealth will resist and then america will become hell.

It's the Nixon and Marijuana strategy all over again.

Mass arrests, and deportations to the labor camps.

oldbaby.bsky.social•10 days ago

creatively bankrupt ruling class adopts a "if you can't feed em, kill em," mentality

schaeferyn.itch.io•10 days ago

They won't have to worry about the civilian population if there simply isn't one anymore.

terrifictadpole.bsky.social•10 days ago

They want to do the Iraq War again, but stupider

nikki-m-vee.bsky.social•10 days ago

my friend was watching public television on citytv for the first time in years while we waited in the hospital for my orchiectomy. she said it felt exactly like it was 2005. i said yeah except iraq is just canada instead. then i went on twitter and immediately saw this.

nikki-m-vee.bsky.social•10 days ago

the only difference is of course no white countries gave nearly enough of a fuck about middle eastern destabalization and military posturing but care very much about this theorhetical

relaxedpizza.bsky.social•10 days ago

Sounds like manufactured consent to have federal troops set up checkpoints
I'm sure, if it happens, they won't unfairly target coastal towns that have been attacked by Conservatives for years now

And I'm sure they'll /ONLY/ arrest for fent posession, just like they're /only/ deporting 'criminals'

relaxedpizza.bsky.social•10 days ago

But that's one of the worse scenarios
This feels like more of a blank check for any states willing to cash it

antiquequaalude.bsky.social•10 days ago

This is the Iraq WMD lie all over again with the exact same language. Has nothing to do with Americans, I don't believe, but as creating legal justification for invading our neighbors.

boredompeejeterson.bsky.social•10 days ago

Not just arrests, they will just let racist fuckheads deputize themselves and kill people

altrocks.bsky.social•10 days ago

So, is he making it Schedule 1? Are the manufacturers going to face consequences, too? Why are people still going along with this like it's all normal?

vynxxgaming.bsky.social•10 days ago

Love that, instead of dealing with the very real drug abuse crisis in America. The fascists are just going to call all Americans who struggle with drugs, terrorists. Dumb fucking country man

drunknhissin.bsky.social•10 days ago

wake the fuck up samurai, we have a new War on Drugs to lose

A military presence in Canada is how a 51st state happens.

dr-atomic.bsky.social•10 days ago

A nuclear armed Canada is how it's prevented.

sarausha.bsky.social•10 days ago

Another war on drugs? I thought DARE was supposed to make things better YEARS ago. They already have a system to help deal with drugs. Why do politicians try to play sports regulators, doctors, police, judges, jury and executioners?

thetrashheap.bsky.social•10 days ago

To feed the slave farms for the Billionaires

willowminder.bsky.social•10 days ago

They are going to. Nothing stopping them. They can just call anyone they want to a terrorist and do whatever they want.

sackbut.bsky.social•10 days ago

Does this mean we need to send all the people on palliative care to an El Salvadoran concentration camp?

xdresstera.bsky.social•10 days ago

Oh, so they want to do that Clear and Present Danger movie but without having to hide it or have the president possibly facing consequences after a congressional hearing

benotafraid.bsky.social•10 days ago

Everything they do is based on fiction, literally everything

xdresstera.bsky.social•10 days ago

I did see a lot of them name checking Red Dawn a few years ago in one of their fits trying to stoke civil war.

reft01.bsky.social•10 days ago

If I had a nickel for every time a Republican made up a wmd threat to justify an invasion I'd have two nickels

reft01.bsky.social•10 days ago

Isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice

bfg008.bsky.social•10 days ago

Yes, they will subdue us long before they invade either nation.

Fentanyl, the pain killer used medically worldwide? Is a dangerous weapon?

matte-gender.bsky.social•10 days ago

i heard a cop looked at a molecule of it and overdosed

dr-atomic.bsky.social•10 days ago

Lol!!!!

thegreatwroggi.bsky.social•10 days ago

Anything to justify imperialistic genocide.

halfdagron.bsky.social•10 days ago

You could try to say it's like what the Brits did with opium to cripple Asia but we are kind of doing it to ourselves.

l1ch3nluvr.bsky.social•10 days ago

yes and they want to obliterate the medical system. if fent is a "WMD" then every fucking hospital is a launch site.

golem00.bsky.social•10 days ago

Taking pointers from AIPAC

Oh no, my grandma is hooked to a WMD, they're gonna bomb her T_T

You know, people in low income communities get snatched off the street for no reason all the times even before Trump

julietskeets.bsky.social•10 days ago

I think it's more like, "they're going to do mass arrests of American citizens..." they have no constraints on their power. The Supreme Court & Democratic Party leadership has seen to that.

itsmeess.bsky.social•10 days ago

This fent so strong it has been legally declared a bioweapon. I had to bribe 4 federal agents to acquire it.

blockyield.bsky.social•10 days ago

They wanna invade Alberta so they can seize the oil.

dr-atomic.bsky.social•10 days ago

Canada needs to exit non the nuclear non-proliferation treaty immediately! I bet Canada could get bombs in production inside of 18 months.

loseyourchain.bsky.social•10 days ago

WMDs waddling their way back into American politics. Phenomenal…

I'm sure this is the pretense for the soon to be Second Global War on Terror.

They’ll have to shut down every hospital, every pharmacy, every hospice facility, every pharmaceutical manufacturer… boy, they’re gonna be REAL busy.

If he hopes to win, he'll first have to confiscate all the weapons the U.S. has allowed to be smuggled over the Mexican border directly to the cartels.

lpringnitz.bsky.social•10 days ago

He needs an excuse to call martial law. He needs us to be at war without actually being at war. Just another con. Besides only congress can declare war! Let's see if they have the nuts to do that.

This is a precursor to Duterte style nonsense isn't it?

nikuneko-b.bsky.social•10 days ago

I guess the lesson we learned from the bush era is “do that but ten times worse”

crummylion.bsky.social•10 days ago

Are they doing any measurements to make sure it's further regulated and properly used as medical treatment? Or are they gonna hunt down every single person that's been professionally medicated with it? They got no idea how widely used it is.

jamescalbraith.co.uk•10 days ago

lol. don't worry they're not going to actually do anything with fentanyl.
