I chose not to write about the fuckery with the unconstitutional disappearing of the Venezuelan immigrants, because once again I didn't want my head to explode. but that doesn't mean you can't discuss it down here in the comments. it's evil shit.

Right? He is SO EVIL. I just can't believe he's not only back in the White house but without any guardrails. Especially given that he's Jewish! It's utterly shameful. His own family and his childhood rabbi have condemned him. btw his wife is even worse. They are such terrible, terrible, evil people.
Keith: in donny demento's brain he STILL imagines that he's a 'star' (the kind 'they let you do it if you're one' - grab 'em by the p*ssy), etc. He THINKS he's a reality 'star' deserving of the Oscar (just wait, that'll be on a list right after the 'noble' prize, after all he's now the head of the Kennedy Center! I'm positive it's why he refers to 'trump' as a separate individual in his babbling. He knows HE is really drumpf and 'trump' is a fake-azz creation of Mark Burnett.
Weeellll, in retrospect...Mark Burnett only made the 'spackled orange makeup-sprayed-tan 'trump' a 'reality star' (in his feeble brain). 'trump' was already another sprung-to-life being way back when THAT name was plastered all over buildings he had no hand in actually 'building'. (Remember the 'John Barron pseudonym he also used, imagining he'd conned Cindy Adams?) He'd get into a 'deal' with Banks. Some contractor & architect (with all of their subs) would do ALL of the work and donny demento do-nothing would stick that name all over it, take the bulk of the money WHILE claiming all of the credit AND that it was 'his'. Some racket. How stupid were those banks to continue floating him the money based ONLY on that asshole name? WHEN he'd renege on the mortgage/loan or think he could get away with the same 'pennies on the dollar scam' he pulled on the above contractors/architects/subs, they'd gradually and only after long periods of pondering whether he was 'worth the next risk' slow down their lending until finally, the last bank left who'd shore him up he 'shared' with Putin. Is THAT how they became bosom buddies? Inquiring minds and all that. Reporters haven't done a deep enough dive as far as I'm concerned.
LOL. Speaking of his 'water'. Sly Stallone appeared on - might have been David Letterman(?) and was suckered into distinguishing between 2-3 various small bottled waters sans labels. One was his own which he recognized immediately. Termed 'delicious' and drank it down. Another, he SPAT OUT, said 'I wouldn't wash my SOCKS in this', (might have called it swill); then only after Letterman revealed it to be 'trump water' did he then react with an 'omg, I'm sorry, don, I didn't mean it, was only kidding', continuing to wipe his face, shake his head in remorse! WTF? The FIRST reaction was the legitimate one. WHY do/did all of these people act subservient to that POS even then? Did they really buy into his 'billionaire' BS?
The humiliation looked remarkably like the manner in which Russians treat their inmates. The cultural appropriation of fascism—Nazi salutes, subversion of civil rights, demonization of minorities, etc—continues unabated. Fuuuuuuuck
It also is very particularly timed to take media attention away from the outrageous bullshittery that Smuk is pulling and the tanking of the economy and the incredibly stupid asshholes such as Buttlick and Bessent assuring the masses that the 'stock market was over-heated', or 'there might be a little pain but it will be worth it' or some other such ridiculous pablum.
Fellas, you all are millionaires--OF FUCKING COURSE a recession won't bother any of you--you'll be busy buying up failed businesses by the dozen and collecting homes that the banks have had to take back. Krasnov and company are SCUM.
the shaving of the heads is what occurred in Nazi Death Camps. Women's hair was then SOLD, but the humiliation and demeaning was also done to destroy individuality and also IF anyone escaped they would be easily recognizable. It's all a part of the torture.
I'm not religious CAM, but I DO pray for this every. single. day. I want it to be 'natural' but hopefully very painful. Karma coming around. NO 'martyrdom' for that fucking nazi fucker.
I keep hoping that an actual fire pit will open up and consume all of them. At one point I had been opting for lightening bolts, but I figured that would trigger the zombie-Qs. With the increasing level of evil every single day, something's gotta give, doesn't it? My migraines are having migraines!
I'm right there with you! My choice would be a debilitating stroke where he is aware and can see and hear but can't speak, unable to communicate or gesture or move his thumbs.
I’m so sickened that Stupid people voted for him.. thinking that “I voted for him he can’t be talking about me”. I will NEVER vote for an authoritarian FASCIST government. And they are power hungry.. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. They’re high on their power and now the economy is tanking.. their hubris is gonna bite them in the ass.. tick tock Orange Sh*tstain tick Fvcking Tock
This is Trump exercising his Nazi! I do not want to return to the US but have to at some point. We are headed into state sanctioned mass killings. People go in in El Salvador and don't come out alive. The fact that this is paraded on TV, and giving the KKK running our country a hard on is sickening me.
NO, we don't! McVeigh murdered an entire room full of kindergartners, or don't you remember 'that' part? Yes, we need to fight back and it will involve SELF sacrifice - but blowing up a building with children is NOT anything to remotely accept even if it's THEIR playbook.
Beware of trolls attempting to move you to the dark side of history's ledger. They want ANY excuse to repeat the violence of Charlottesville against citizens protesting the christo-fascist takeover, and they want Trump to suspend civil rights for everyone (authoritarian control). Devolving to violence against MAGAs is exactly the kind of justification they're looking for.
Yeah, and this DooDoo BooBoo is just the kind of low wattage numbnuts trying to provoke our worst instincts.
The orange Shit stain is drooling, waiting to give the order for Martial Law as soon as drunken Pete tells him the military is sufficiently under control by trump cultists and they will have No problem with firing live ammo at American citizens.
We can’t give him a reason to do that on a silver platter.
Back in my day we had no trouble in assembling a Million strong to protest the Viet Nam War; Where is everybody Now!!??!!
Not enough of the trump voters have suffered enough economic pain. They still believe the bs lies being put out by elmo regarding all of the fraud & waste he’s finding.
yes, Trump really would LOVE to impose Martial Law; no election, no voting. I believe you are right in that he is probably looking for some excuse to do exactly that.
The footage shown on news media was a propaganda film. I have no proof except my gut. Think about it as you maybe watch again; 100’s of soldiers in perfect lockstep in their absolute perfect uniforms, the drone pictures showing the entire operation, razors ready, white t-shirts, undies and booties provided. Three airplanes for 200-250 people, numerous busses and the prison inside was spotless. Even the shackles they wore were new and shiny. And what camera man could get as close as they got to the head shaving, inside the prison where the prisoner’s are lined up perfectly and then lead to a cell. This was all a hocus pocus action thriller that diaper daddy would think he was the superhero. MAGA is proud, we are pissed as hell, judges are losing their minds - mission accomplished! Forgive me if I am wrong and it took me a few days to figure it out but then the light came on. Correction: lights, camera, action! 🎥📣💡
No, Kay. You are absolutely correct. This was a propaganda film no question. It smells of some WWF style of hype. He probably got McMahon to produce it
Kay, I only saw a part of it but I did think there was something odd about it. You got what was odd about it for me. Should have known. Nothing T does works out right: everything is a rush job. Everything done on the cheap. Nothing worse than a pseudo-tyrant. 😏
They’re claiming the prisoners are “gang members “ but so they really know? Couldn’t ANYONE get disappeared this way? Shouldn’t they just be in facility then deported to their home country ?
There has been ZERO evidence of any wrongdoing by the Venezuelans. Accusing them of being gang members is just a cheap and illegal trick to indict them all en masse. I don’t even recognize our country anymore.
They don’t know anything because there was no due process; yes, technically anyone could (my understanding is that even green card holders are in danger and if all you have is your application in the process, good luck); the fear, cruelty and “let this be a warning”.
They could, considering their past decisions…separating kids in kennels, while sending their parents back to countries they never came from. These agents of chaos need to be punished up against a wall with a firing squad!
What the hell happened to due process? Heinrich Holman continues with his barbaric and inhumane quest and claims he won't listen to any of the judge's rulings. Holman is another MAGA fuck who believes he's above the law. Don't remember him getting any kind of immunity.
Can't wait until this ruthless bastard ends up in a courtroom and says this shit to a judge. Hopefully it would a FAFO scenario for heartless Holman.
Evidently 4 young men from the suburbs of DC were taken. All parents say their kids are good. What I read was believable about the 4 friends. They are ambushing people. Like Khalil and all those accused and deported without due process. How much hate and why do all those who work with and encourage Drumpf have?
This is precisely the heart of the dispute with the judge. The judge is one of those old-fashioned sorts who thinks that before someone is deported as a violent gang member of whatever, there should be a showing that this is actually true.
‘merikka has evolved into one of the “shit hole countries” the bumbling old racist connard tried to ban from coming here! Providing “we the Serfs” good reason to either revolt, or get the fuck out of here Kay-EI!!
I've read several articles about that prison. Really fucked up place. They want to do that kind of shit in the states with all the private prisons. Cruelty is the whole point.
Not that it matters much but we have laws against that treatment on US soil. Which is why they were being shipped Guantanamo prior to this 6 billion dollar contract with El Salvador. Those men will never be heard from again.
They are using a law from the 1700s yeah the merika was great then because I can buy Supreme jerk-off Thomas as my slave tie to a post and and whip the snot out of him. Now that’s what MAGA a is all about.
Random being the operative word. And it can apply to anybody. Standing in a check out line with your imported oranges? Good heavens, they're from Chile! Arrest her! Talking to your Muslim friend at the library. Arrest them both! There is no law any more. There are no guarantees. There is no hope. And while we're at it, has anyone seen what happened to the Iwo Jima website? No words.
This comment is stream of consciousness but the best I can do today. Furthermore, why does a Pride flag piss off so many people and give them permission to display their hatred? MAGA hats piss me off but so far I haven't gotten violent about it. Maybe I should.
Really? Well, Hannah and Ole will complain about this, but I make sure that I buy things from places I consider acceptable. That's why I never knowingly buy anything from China, India, Bangladesh, etc. unless I know it has been produced by people making a living wage and treated fairly, usually organic farmers whom I know.
Some of us can't afford to shop at Whole Foods or Vitamin Cottage. Some of us even have to shop at Walmart because we can't afford the prices at Safeway or King Soopers. longtimebirdwatcher's smugness and lack of sensitivity to the reality of the working poor is appalling, but not surprising.
That fucking judge should be telling Trump's goons you need to get their fucking asses back here right fucking now. I've had it with this fucking shit thinking you can ignore my fucking orders (I'm paraphrasing).
Other than U.S. Marshals? The military. Who leads the military? The "Commander in Chief." The FBI? Executive branch. The state police? Local police? National Guard? Coast Guard? Same branch. All of these brave executive branch employees will have to decide for themselves whether they will follow illegal orders.

The Nazi Bar theory is illustratively a good one: keep nazis and fascists and confederate sympathizers out of your society because they are operating outside of social norms, but expect to be treated as if they are not. The problem is, we as a society have not been coming down on them like a LEGAL ton of bricks early and often, have we?
.
We let them build statues to and name military bases after confederate bigots. We let them act like political bosses from within their houses of worship. We let them pit religion against science. We let them teach one another and their offspring that females must be controlled to be considered "good" men and parents, giving all of them a religious excuse for their attitudes and behaviors, which should have been over and done with many centuries ago. It does look like we're hurdling toward a war on U.S. soil.
Yes. I think so. The hate from Noem & the others. And I too am awash with empathy and tho were encouraged to do self-care, it’s tough when so many are suffering.
Dont feel bad jeff, I went and fucked up and did a read through of the Project 2025 handbook, and all the fuck I got out of it was an 8 part ass fuck for which it begins here (https://thistleandmoss.com/p/wendy-the-druid-step-by-step-dissection) and will end eventually. But I felt so fucking dirty after having to write about it, that I drowned myself in Knob Creek Bourbon, and a hot mustard seed bath to get all the fucking impurities I had just exposed msyelf to , the fuck out of me.
I read it. They've completed 30% of their intended goals in 30 days. They refer to anyone who is not a MAGA Republican as a Marxist Leftist. They would love it if we all just died. I'm excited to see how the public will respond to their goal of mandating 18 yrs old to the the military for two years. Social Security will be used to pay off the National Debt. Social security was needed to keep the poorest of poor in cat food. For them, it serves no other purpose than that. MAGA voters are willingly clueless.
You’ve likely invested time in Yarvin’s butterfly revolution as well Lisa… both are fascist propagandist/ eugenic dreams of a world sans democracy!
As I watch the upheaval in Budapest and Belgrade, I can’t help but wonder if Russia won’t likely be lagging far behind… what then, will become of this criminally engineered plot by the billionaire class??
Yarvin, a paper intellectual piece of shit. Another one who thinks he's a hero in his own mind. The loss of empathy, is loss of humanity as we know it. Jesus fucking Christ, malignant narcissist psychopaths!!! Personality disorders are destroying democratic ideals throughout the world.
Fighting for humanity will never end. In Budapest and Belgrade, they are fighting for it. The Russian people will have to make that decision. Risking their own lives. Just like here. Will this country rise up to the oligarchs? This is how change happens. It's the people's war now.
Yarvin & his ilk are disgusting. One of them, a guy called Belagi, even said the non productive people could just be made into biofuel in an interview. He then said that he was joking, but I actually think he wasn’t. The other resolution to what to do with those kinds of people, was to “contain” them somehow, so they wouldn’t be in the way. Huge prisons/work houses???
I think the MAGGOTS have had no voice (they probably have not had anything intelligent to say except “the ck is in the mail” to their landlords after they have spent the rent & grocery $ on booze and gambling.)
Now their TV star hero is leading the country & making them feel important. They feel special cause frump wears a hat like theirs and tries to make them feel like he is one of them, with his rhetoric of a poor dude without a say in American politics.
You're right. They belong to a “special” group. The President validated their low intelligent biases. He told them they were special and he loved him. Even though he's incapable of empathy. This demographic seems to think they know something we don't. They can't pass up a single conspiracy theory. They accept the dehumanizing as normal. Maybe they don't recognize it in their own lives. They have a hard time resisting the abusers in their own relationships. Shitpants is familiar. Obviously, too familiar. They didn't lift bar very high. They unfortunately thrive on victimization. In a sad way, really.
They are forcing death on those of us fortunate to not be deported. Medicaid will be decimated. Beg 4/1, NO Medicare coverage for televisits. The impact for a whole bunch of us is close to catastrophic medically & financially & physically for those of us with disabilities. I’m not willing to die or be unhoused for these cruel, lawless morons. I may be forced to.
Me too. I just lost a major client and a big chunk of my income but I'm not even going to try to replace them because I'm at the end of my tether emotionally and cannot commit to the level of functioning I've enjoyed the past few years.
Jeff, this story was the second greatest thing that's happened to me in the year 2025. The first greatest was seeing an anti-abortion protester get knocked on his ass by a patient's husband when he wouldn't stop yelling at the wife who was walking into Planned Parenthood. 😁
Like the Trump dumb shits in your story, abortion clinic protesters like to play the victim when my group insults, screams at, and generally are dicks to them In response to their overtures toward patients. We don't intend for them to enjoy their time harassing strangers. Even though I know they get off on their Christian persecution complex, I still stand toe to toe with the bastards and scream my lungs out. And as long as I've got breath in those lungs and the strength to stand, that's what I'll be doing.
Thanks for all you've done the last few months to keep me and the people I love sane. 💜
I read just last night that 48 residents of New Mexico, my home state were disappeared over the weekend. There are fewer people in the whole of New Mexico than in New York City. Many of us have a mixture of Spanish and Native American DNA, my mother was a quarter Native, and we have 23 federally recognized reservations. I guess my point is that in an area of lower population with a large proportion of people who wouldn't pass for being white, the kidnapping of 48 people leaves you reeling.
Only one tiny ray of 'hope' (not the right word) from Roberts, after frump ranted about wanting to impeach the Judge who ordered the return of the planes - which he and his thugs ignored of course. Roberts issued a terse statement making it clear that 'impeachment' of a Judge is off the table, and they can feel free to 'appeal' the decision (exactly what the judge had told them). It doesn't help those already removed, but perhaps good lawyers can force them to be returned for due process which NONE of these people got? IN fact, there's a possibility that some might be bona fide American Citizens.
There are over a hundred lawsuits. Sadly they would need Federal Marshalls to enforce the rulings — and Pam Bondi (Bondage Barbie) oversees the Federal Marshalls.
Today Chief Justice John Roberts had to take Trump to the woodshed for whining about Judge Boasberg and threatening impeachment. However, the Robertsʻ Court ruling on presidential immunity has put us in a very very dangerous position. Robertʻs statement about impeachment is also self-protective of SCOTUS because some MAGA have already gone after Justice Barrett. There isnʻt much Roberts can do now to save his legacy - he is complicit in the authoritarian takeover.
Orange Anus Mouth and his Nazi shithead regime violated due process and the very foundational concept of our legal system of Habeas Corpus, simply meaning that a person charged with a crime has to be brought before a judge, told what the fuck they’re being charged with and to make sure they have not been whisked away to some dungeon. This goes back to the Magna Carta, written in 1215! This document also establishes that kings are not above the law! SCOTUS overturned that for very special shithead Donnie Drumpf! This is huge! This is possibly the most serious constitutional violation they could have committed. They can whisk away any of us to Guantanamo Bay or ship us off to a federal prison without so much as allowing us to enter a plea of guilty or not guilty!
Arm yourselves now, before they overturn the 2nd Amendment! Seriously.
I chose not to write about the fuckery with the unconstitutional disappearing of the Venezuelan immigrants, because once again I didn't want my head to explode. but that doesn't mean you can't discuss it down here in the comments. it's evil shit.
That is just horrific. The prison they were sent to is worse than Guantanamo. My heart hurts for them and their families. Fuck Trump.
They shaved their fucking heads! Nazi much? God, how I hate these times we live in.
And the whole thing was staged to be dramatically theatrical ... for social media consumption everywhere. Looked like a horror movie to me.
everything trump does is for the camera ... scripted bullshit
This one has the stench of Stephen Miller, though. I can smell the sulfur from here.
Me too
Stephen Miller is the reincarnation of something really evil. I don't know what, or who, but the evil emanates from him. Creepy.
Right? He is SO EVIL. I just can't believe he's not only back in the White house but without any guardrails. Especially given that he's Jewish! It's utterly shameful. His own family and his childhood rabbi have condemned him. btw his wife is even worse. They are such terrible, terrible, evil people.

Good point! I hadn’t thought about that. 👍👍
that makes him a TOOL?
i said TOOL! hahahahaha!

the man is the same today as he was way back when
he thought not getting infected dik was a honor he survived making comparison to vietnam!
back when he had brown hair!

And what was with the hoods so you can’t see the faces of the “guards”. Nazi much?! Disgusting!
shaving their heads is the least of their problems
the prisoners are ONLY ALLOWED to wear white boxer shorts
NO TALKING MUST KEEP THEIR HEADS FACING THE FLOOR
HEAD COUNTS INVOLVE EVEYONE SITTING LIKE THEY ARE TOBOGGAN RIDERS ONE TIGHTLY AGAINST THE ONE IN FRONT OF THEM
and multiple beatings solitary confinement ZERO OUTSIDE CONTACT

returning is a DEATH SENTENCE!
the shaving of the heads is what occurred in Nazi Death Camps. Women's hair was then SOLD, but the humiliation and demeaning was also done to destroy individuality and also IF anyone escaped they would be easily recognizable. It's all a part of the torture.
Horrific is the only word that comes to mind. I just hope the wannabe king gets his comeuppance one sweet day.
I'm not religious CAM, but I DO pray for this every. single. day. I want it to be 'natural' but hopefully very painful. Karma coming around. NO 'martyrdom' for that fucking nazi fucker.
I keep hoping that an actual fire pit will open up and consume all of them. At one point I had been opting for lightening bolts, but I figured that would trigger the zombie-Qs. With the increasing level of evil every single day, something's gotta give, doesn't it? My migraines are having migraines!
I'm right there with you! My choice would be a debilitating stroke where he is aware and can see and hear but can't speak, unable to communicate or gesture or move his thumbs.
and lots of physical pain
yeah, but physical pain can be alleviated. I'm holding out for a shit ton of mental pain.
That’s been my wish for the last couple years, a massive stroke
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
And put them in identical uniforms and wouldn't let their faces be seen. Because NONE of them are gang members!
Many of them with zero tattoos. Impossible for a gang member.
I’m so sickened that Stupid people voted for him.. thinking that “I voted for him he can’t be talking about me”. I will NEVER vote for an authoritarian FASCIST government. And they are power hungry.. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. They’re high on their power and now the economy is tanking.. their hubris is gonna bite them in the ass.. tick tock Orange Sh*tstain tick Fvcking Tock
I hate the people we have to live with.
In my mind, I gleefully imagine this happening to Trump (and now Musk). Heads shaven and thrown in a dirty cell. It might open his mind.
And dressed them in fucked up “uniforms” so they likely wouldn’t be recognizable. This is unacceptable!
I hear you!!
This is Trump exercising his Nazi! I do not want to return to the US but have to at some point. We are headed into state sanctioned mass killings. People go in in El Salvador and don't come out alive. The fact that this is paraded on TV, and giving the KKK running our country a hard on is sickening me.
Couldn’t agree more Linda… this country is toast without a well engineered revolution… blow the damn thing up and hit the reset button!!
that's what magats wanted when they chose the orange baboon and we're seeing how well that's working! They literally TALKED about 'blowing it all up'!
That's what I say! Fuck Luigi. We need a McVeigh.
NO, we don't! McVeigh murdered an entire room full of kindergartners, or don't you remember 'that' part? Yes, we need to fight back and it will involve SELF sacrifice - but blowing up a building with children is NOT anything to remotely accept even if it's THEIR playbook.

Patrick, and add to the wall trump and nazi friends.
A Canadian woman named Jasmine Mooney was incarcerated by ICE for 12 days, and then flown to Vancouver.
A warning to all Canadians snowbirds to get back home and make other plan for the next 4 + years.
I saw that! Horrible!
What the hell happened to due process? Heinrich Holman continues with his barbaric and inhumane quest and claims he won't listen to any of the judge's rulings. Holman is another MAGA fuck who believes he's above the law. Don't remember him getting any kind of immunity.

Evidently 4 young men from the suburbs of DC were taken. All parents say their kids are good. What I read was believable about the 4 friends. They are ambushing people. Like Khalil and all those accused and deported without due process. How much hate and why do all those who work with and encourage Drumpf have?
People of color, Joan, POC.
This is precisely the heart of the dispute with the judge. The judge is one of those old-fashioned sorts who thinks that before someone is deported as a violent gang member of whatever, there should be a showing that this is actually true.
‘merikka has evolved into one of the “shit hole countries” the bumbling old racist connard tried to ban from coming here! Providing “we the Serfs” good reason to either revolt, or get the fuck out of here Kay-EI!!
I’ve got my pitchfork ready, Patrick
ditto, kay-el
To ram it up a few asses?
They were stacked up to the ceiling in what looked like the concentration camps in Germany. It’s inhuman to treat people that way.
There was no due process, no courts or lawyers involved. It is horrific!
I've read several articles about that prison. Really fucked up place. They want to do that kind of shit in the states with all the private prisons. Cruelty is the whole point.
Not that it matters much but we have laws against that treatment on US soil. Which is why they were being shipped Guantanamo prior to this 6 billion dollar contract with El Salvador. Those men will never be heard from again.
I really hope that’s not what happens.
Laws? What does that even mean any more?
They are using a law from the 1700s yeah the merika was great then because I can buy Supreme jerk-off Thomas as my slave tie to a post and and whip the snot out of him. Now that’s what MAGA a is all about.
Me too Kay-El. FOTUS is a despicable POS.
I'm awash in empathy, so here goes.
I think of all those men, rounded up randomly and flown to one of the most violent prisons in South America, lambs to the slaughter.
Homan and Noem won't divulge their names, or any details.
My guess is, these were ordinary immigrants, guilty of nothing outside of, 'accident of birth.'
Random being the operative word. And it can apply to anybody. Standing in a check out line with your imported oranges? Good heavens, they're from Chile! Arrest her! Talking to your Muslim friend at the library. Arrest them both! There is no law any more. There are no guarantees. There is no hope. And while we're at it, has anyone seen what happened to the Iwo Jima website? No words.
This comment is stream of consciousness but the best I can do today. Furthermore, why does a Pride flag piss off so many people and give them permission to display their hatred? MAGA hats piss me off but so far I haven't gotten violent about it. Maybe I should.
Your oranges should come from California. Don't they source your food where you shop?
The comment was theoretical. My oranges might come from South Africa, California, or Chile, depending on the week, or month, or day.
Really? Well, Hannah and Ole will complain about this, but I make sure that I buy things from places I consider acceptable. That's why I never knowingly buy anything from China, India, Bangladesh, etc. unless I know it has been produced by people making a living wage and treated fairly, usually organic farmers whom I know.
Oh FFS.
Some of us can't afford to shop at Whole Foods or Vitamin Cottage. Some of us even have to shop at Walmart because we can't afford the prices at Safeway or King Soopers. longtimebirdwatcher's smugness and lack of sensitivity to the reality of the working poor is appalling, but not surprising.
That fucking judge should be telling Trump's goons you need to get their fucking asses back here right fucking now. I've had it with this fucking shit thinking you can ignore my fucking orders (I'm paraphrasing).
Problem is - whose going to stop them?
Other than U.S. Marshals? The military. Who leads the military? The "Commander in Chief." The FBI? Executive branch. The state police? Local police? National Guard? Coast Guard? Same branch. All of these brave executive branch employees will have to decide for themselves whether they will follow illegal orders.
.
The Nazi Bar theory is illustratively a good one: keep nazis and fascists and confederate sympathizers out of your society because they are operating outside of social norms, but expect to be treated as if they are not. The problem is, we as a society have not been coming down on them like a LEGAL ton of bricks early and often, have we?
.
We let them build statues to and name military bases after confederate bigots. We let them act like political bosses from within their houses of worship. We let them pit religion against science. We let them teach one another and their offspring that females must be controlled to be considered "good" men and parents, giving all of them a religious excuse for their attitudes and behaviors, which should have been over and done with many centuries ago. It does look like we're hurdling toward a war on U.S. soil.
I think a large number were green card holders and US citizens.
Yes. I think so. The hate from Noem & the others. And I too am awash with empathy and tho were encouraged to do self-care, it’s tough when so many are suffering.
Dont feel bad jeff, I went and fucked up and did a read through of the Project 2025 handbook, and all the fuck I got out of it was an 8 part ass fuck for which it begins here (https://thistleandmoss.com/p/wendy-the-druid-step-by-step-dissection) and will end eventually. But I felt so fucking dirty after having to write about it, that I drowned myself in Knob Creek Bourbon, and a hot mustard seed bath to get all the fucking impurities I had just exposed msyelf to , the fuck out of me.
I read it. They've completed 30% of their intended goals in 30 days. They refer to anyone who is not a MAGA Republican as a Marxist Leftist. They would love it if we all just died. I'm excited to see how the public will respond to their goal of mandating 18 yrs old to the the military for two years. Social Security will be used to pay off the National Debt. Social security was needed to keep the poorest of poor in cat food. For them, it serves no other purpose than that. MAGA voters are willingly clueless.
You’ve likely invested time in Yarvin’s butterfly revolution as well Lisa… both are fascist propagandist/ eugenic dreams of a world sans democracy!
As I watch the upheaval in Budapest and Belgrade, I can’t help but wonder if Russia won’t likely be lagging far behind… what then, will become of this criminally engineered plot by the billionaire class??
Yarvin, a paper intellectual piece of shit. Another one who thinks he's a hero in his own mind. The loss of empathy, is loss of humanity as we know it. Jesus fucking Christ, malignant narcissist psychopaths!!! Personality disorders are destroying democratic ideals throughout the world.
Fighting for humanity will never end. In Budapest and Belgrade, they are fighting for it. The Russian people will have to make that decision. Risking their own lives. Just like here. Will this country rise up to the oligarchs? This is how change happens. It's the people's war now.
Yarvin & his ilk are disgusting. One of them, a guy called Belagi, even said the non productive people could just be made into biofuel in an interview. He then said that he was joking, but I actually think he wasn’t. The other resolution to what to do with those kinds of people, was to “contain” them somehow, so they wouldn’t be in the way. Huge prisons/work houses???
We'll see who dies!
I think the MAGGOTS have had no voice (they probably have not had anything intelligent to say except “the ck is in the mail” to their landlords after they have spent the rent & grocery $ on booze and gambling.)
Now their TV star hero is leading the country & making them feel important. They feel special cause frump wears a hat like theirs and tries to make them feel like he is one of them, with his rhetoric of a poor dude without a say in American politics.
You're right. They belong to a “special” group. The President validated their low intelligent biases. He told them they were special and he loved him. Even though he's incapable of empathy. This demographic seems to think they know something we don't. They can't pass up a single conspiracy theory. They accept the dehumanizing as normal. Maybe they don't recognize it in their own lives. They have a hard time resisting the abusers in their own relationships. Shitpants is familiar. Obviously, too familiar. They didn't lift bar very high. They unfortunately thrive on victimization. In a sad way, really.
They are forcing death on those of us fortunate to not be deported. Medicaid will be decimated. Beg 4/1, NO Medicare coverage for televisits. The impact for a whole bunch of us is close to catastrophic medically & financially & physically for those of us with disabilities. I’m not willing to die or be unhoused for these cruel, lawless morons. I may be forced to.
It’s just all too much. It’s actually affecting my ability to function at work.
It’s been brutal for 70% of our country, Eva. When did the U.S. become a minority ruled country?
About 1963.
If I was still working, I’d be right there with you, see also January 6.
The design is simply meant to cause chaos, confusion and disfunction… appears to be working Eva!!
Me too. I just lost a major client and a big chunk of my income but I'm not even going to try to replace them because I'm at the end of my tether emotionally and cannot commit to the level of functioning I've enjoyed the past few years.
It’s affecting my ability to live any kind of normal life! I’m just sick at heart that this is happening here.
Mine too. I have really horrific long covid. My many docs tell me to destress! Grateful they share my politics and values and understand why I can’t.
❤️❤️
makes Mien Kampf read like 'see dik see jane'
the most frightening words i have ever read!
I look forward to reading it, Wendy. I'm stocked up on Canadian Club whiskey, so I *should* be okay...
I took gummy breaks. My the handful.
I mean, I was about to break out my Macalllans 16. But then I said fuck it, and stayed with Knob Creek.
Price should be dropping on the Knob Creek when all the cases they used to send tonCanada and Europe start piling up in the warehouse.
Or the price will jump as they try to make up those lost profits here at home.
I hope you’ve got enough to last you 4 years.
I do. Not a problem on my end. I'm in a weed legal state. I've got seeds. 😁
I'm in Canada. I get mine delivered to my front door. 😎
It’s a long, mind numbing, thoroughly disgusting, read Ink! Expect a good amount of anger towards its authors!
No probs. I have a punching bag in the workout room. And a hip flask.
Knob Creek! 😋
It's OK to take a short break now and then from the depravities of President Dimwit Jackass Turd and his minions. This was delightful. Thank you!
Jeff, this story was the second greatest thing that's happened to me in the year 2025. The first greatest was seeing an anti-abortion protester get knocked on his ass by a patient's husband when he wouldn't stop yelling at the wife who was walking into Planned Parenthood. 😁
Like the Trump dumb shits in your story, abortion clinic protesters like to play the victim when my group insults, screams at, and generally are dicks to them In response to their overtures toward patients. We don't intend for them to enjoy their time harassing strangers. Even though I know they get off on their Christian persecution complex, I still stand toe to toe with the bastards and scream my lungs out. And as long as I've got breath in those lungs and the strength to stand, that's what I'll be doing.
Thanks for all you've done the last few months to keep me and the people I love sane. 💜
I read just last night that 48 residents of New Mexico, my home state were disappeared over the weekend. There are fewer people in the whole of New Mexico than in New York City. Many of us have a mixture of Spanish and Native American DNA, my mother was a quarter Native, and we have 23 federally recognized reservations. I guess my point is that in an area of lower population with a large proportion of people who wouldn't pass for being white, the kidnapping of 48 people leaves you reeling.
Only one tiny ray of 'hope' (not the right word) from Roberts, after frump ranted about wanting to impeach the Judge who ordered the return of the planes - which he and his thugs ignored of course. Roberts issued a terse statement making it clear that 'impeachment' of a Judge is off the table, and they can feel free to 'appeal' the decision (exactly what the judge had told them). It doesn't help those already removed, but perhaps good lawyers can force them to be returned for due process which NONE of these people got? IN fact, there's a possibility that some might be bona fide American Citizens.
hopefully there will be lawsuits...at least as long as the courts are still operating
As of a couple of days ago, I heard there were 225 lawsuits filed against the Shitler administration. Seems like a low number.
There are over a hundred lawsuits. Sadly they would need Federal Marshalls to enforce the rulings — and Pam Bondi (Bondage Barbie) oversees the Federal Marshalls.
Judges have the power to deputize citizens as Marshalls. I'd love to arrest these Nazis.
bondage barbie ! I love it ...
If anyone deserves to be in a shithole prison with their head shaved it is Fucking
D☭Иald TЯUM₽, Nazi Musk and Nazi Vance. No one will step up and put them in their place for war crimes
Today Chief Justice John Roberts had to take Trump to the woodshed for whining about Judge Boasberg and threatening impeachment. However, the Robertsʻ Court ruling on presidential immunity has put us in a very very dangerous position. Robertʻs statement about impeachment is also self-protective of SCOTUS because some MAGA have already gone after Justice Barrett. There isnʻt much Roberts can do now to save his legacy - he is complicit in the authoritarian takeover.
Please preserve your head, Jeff. We got this.
Yep!!
Orange Anus Mouth and his Nazi shithead regime violated due process and the very foundational concept of our legal system of Habeas Corpus, simply meaning that a person charged with a crime has to be brought before a judge, told what the fuck they’re being charged with and to make sure they have not been whisked away to some dungeon. This goes back to the Magna Carta, written in 1215! This document also establishes that kings are not above the law! SCOTUS overturned that for very special shithead Donnie Drumpf! This is huge! This is possibly the most serious constitutional violation they could have committed. They can whisk away any of us to Guantanamo Bay or ship us off to a federal prison without so much as allowing us to enter a plea of guilty or not guilty!
Arm yourselves now, before they overturn the 2nd Amendment! Seriously.
