The self-ownage cycle of republics: Given enough time, a republic will inevitably own itself so hard that it reverts back to the conditions that its founders were explicitly trying to escape.

The pedophile is "one of" the least popular royals? Which of them is less popular and what are they up to?

Pardoning Government Corruption The “scope and magnitude of Trump’s second-term pardons are unprecedented.” And that policy runs directly counter to the Republican Party’s traditional focus on crime control.

Stealing taxpayer funds, accepting bribes, shaking down businesses that deal with government: a partial gallery of persons Trump has pardoned after public corruption convictions. It's a policy that runs directly counter to the GOP's traditional tough-on-crime stance. [Chris Edwards, Cato] @cato.org

pretty cold of Chuck to have him arrested on his birthday.

Congrats again to Chief Keyser Söze

although it was pretty deceptive of him sign the statement "Charles R" to hide the fact that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is his brother.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

Billions for ICE, refurbishing Trump's Qatar jet, and tax cuts for the rich...

"That's just how it is."

derp

that's because 99% of the people on X are looking for titties, dongs or minors to molest.

Trump abolished DEI and replaced it with unqualified and unfit white people throughout every area of the govt.

somebody like that should be donating more than $1,000 . . . .

The Department of Homeland Security sent Google, Reddit, Discord and Meta hundreds of administrative subpoenas requesting the names, email addresses, telephone numbers and other identifying data behind social media accounts that track or criticize ICE and DHS.

Richard Hanania @RichardHanania X.com In the early days of Christianity, some men thought sex was so sinful they would castrate themselves so as not to be tempted. I wonder if in a few years young men will be so worried about being attracted to a 17 year old they'll do the same so they won't be "pedophiles."

Absolutely, sir. This is a normal thought.

His job is to destroy the United States

and if they live long enough, they can drown under the rising sea level

he was definitely an a-hole

Rep. Buddy Carter: "Just yesterday in my district we had a terrible tragedy where one of our beloved school teachers was killed by an illegal immigrant who was trying to resist arrest and fleeing from ICE"


(the immigrant had no criminal history but ICE got into a high speed chase with him anyway)

The Immigration Debate Came to Rural Kansas. Locals Stood by Their Mayor.

i don’t even know what to do with “permanent resident illegally votes for donald trump three times, continues to stand by the gop even though they’re going to deport him”

the only surprise is that the response wasn't "pineapple" or "watermelon"

Filled with hot chocolate?

Fuck Ice. Is that anti-Ice enough for you dipshits?

Yes

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.

It does this by stripping food away from children, the disabled, and the working poor.

Not one more penny.

In a reality-based world this would force a stated change in news outlets' policies not to ever use the phrase "DHS says" until their claim can be proven independently, but journalists' pro-police bias ("why would they lie, they have badges") remains a reliably strong constant in regime coverage

Good news: there's no durable majority for fascism

Bad news: we are locked in a life or death struggle against fascism and our victory depends on people with less understanding of how the world functions than my 14-month old

Basically the one thing that keeps Republicans afloat are tax cuts. Trump raised taxes on 80-90% of Americans.

It’s the Epstein Administration.

No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting.
