The Starks send their approval

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

We take tariffs on our beautiful Heard Island very seriously. We will be consulting all mammals and flightless birds and will make an announcement in the near future detailing our response. #heardisland #tariff #mcdonaldisland #trumptariff

For years the right has fed on conspiracy theories about the “globalist billionaire” Soros buying our democracy. Yet when Musk actually does it, it’s crickets.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Imagine if Biden threatened shipping those HE ACCUSED January 6th to concentration camps abroad. Seriously imagine what the reaction would have been.

Trump threatens to put American citizens on deportation flights to a slave prison in El Salvador

21st Century Robber Barons with a fascist twist

This is horrifying! Family members of some of the people sent to do hard labor in a Salvadoran prison by Trump confirm their loved ones weren't members of a gang. One woman said her brother got a tattoo of a rose in Dallas, and because of that they accused him of being a gang member.

We are watching people be disappeared to gulags run by madmen around the globe. Without evidence. Innocent moms, dads, brothers, & children. Many of them FLEEING TdA violence. With the excuse that “other people who are look like them do bad things.” That is an evil we used to fight against.

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

They claim they can snatch people up, put them on planes, and deport them to a country run by an authoritarian, where those people will be forced to work slave labor at an inhumane prison. All without due process, and in defiance of federal courts. The hypotheticals are over. This is the nightmare.

Oh man, this is like real McCarthy stuff ….

WaPo readers need to realize that every opinion piece they read is now the product of Bezos' rightwing censorship rules. Whether the author self censors or Post management does it after review, the result is the same. This is what oligarch controlled media looks like.

Kingsley Wilson, the newly-appointed DoD Deputy Press Secretary, believes in a thoroughly-debunked antisemitic conspiracy theory. I've mostly only seen this theory promoted by mask-off neo-Nazis. archive.is/dPvse

So Trump says his political opponents are enemies of the state, he will consider opposition protests illegal, and he will now claim Greenland and Panama, and perhaps Mexico, by “any means necessary. History shows us this always ends well, right?

Yes, because protesting is so very un-American

January 29, 2023. It was all there for everyone to see, who cared enough to notice.

This seems really really really bad

New York Times, Jan. 26, 1935.

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower. Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.

Trump and Vance are shamefully doing Putin’s bidding right from the Oval Office. It’s an absolute disgrace. I’m filled with rage as I watch this. I stand with all of you who believe deeply in the ideals of freedom and democracy. I’m disgusted by our president bending a knee to Putin.

We just watched the supposed “Leader of the Free World” try to extort President Zelensky on live television. Donald Trump did more to demean America and our values in that 10 minutes than we’ve ever witnessed before. That is not what we stand for. We must oppose this with everything we have.

"You've gotta be more thankful" -- remarkable scenes out of the White House as Trump and JD Vance team up to do Putin's bidding and demean Zelenskyy

ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media
