Oh! Let's all talk to trump. He listens so wonderfully.

Too many lower level troops assume that their superior officers are taking care to the decision as to what is a legal order and what isn't. And some of them joined because they want to bust some heads and hurt "bad guys". Police, State troopers, National Guard, regular army, same problem.

Nice "white power" sign.

It might be too late. The time was January 7, 2021 when even the Republicans were admitting he was a traitor.

A few might be competently evil.

And all the violence is by ICE.

And trump and Miller look like?

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

Vigilantes? Probably.

Kristi Noem in Feb 2024: If Biden federalizes the National Guard [to handle border issues], we’ve got a war on our hands.”l Kristi Noem in 2025 as DHS Secretary: …federalizing the National Guard.

A truly sad sight. Trump’s America. 🇺🇸

And he is doing it right now.

I don't believe there will be midterm elections. The government we have is the government we will have forever... only worse.

This is trumplandia.

Where was the WP in 2024?

Your oath is to the Constitution. The President violates the Constitution. If he orders you to violate the Constitution… Your oath remains to the Constitution.

Says the guy who hacked teslas from the white house.

The flip flopper in chief hires all the best people, until he fires them and tells us how terrible they. Over and over and over again.... Then he might hire them back. Has he changed any tariffs today?

To be clear: Trump is dispatching the troops in response to protests *the Los Angeles Police Department* has described as peaceful

As if.... as if deleting something makes it go away. Who said this guy is smart? Oh, yeah, trump did. So there's the error right there.

He has amassed the power of the congress, the senate, and SCOTUS, since then. He has won. There is no stopping him now. I'm so glad that I am old. Your children are screwed.

This is exactly what authoritarian regimes did almost a 100 years ago. If you think civilization is inexorably progressing think about a Roman citizen in 410 AD. And think about the fetid plague riden cesspool of the Middle ages when 0.01% of the people could read that went on for a 1000 years.

I just heard the AI advocate when asked if there are regulations to protect us...children... Answer with the excuse: it's changing so fast it isn't possible. Just like, if I commit enough crimes... you'll never catch me.

Now, multiply 262 times $174,000 and 262 times 365 times $79... add th together.... And you get $53,000,000 How much did they save by starving poor children? BILLIONS!!! so that makes it right Right?

Maybe it's for the best. Trump has no judgement, knowledge, or intelligence so if he plays golf, pardons people, and takes calls from people offering him scams; maybe it's better than him making substantive decisions about policy. Those who are doing this for him are only stupid. Improvement?

Flip flopping on your own decisions just might... stay with me here... just might suggest that your decisions aren't very good in the first place. That's if you're rational. The Republican Party apparently isn't rational either. All the best people!

💯 this

Again.... You forgot again.

If Musk is THAT bad (and I'm not arguing against it), what does that say about trump's judgment far hiring him and giving him so much power? Trump is insane.
