Myanmar's been a dictatorship for 63 yrs, which means they have more systems in place to repress citizens than the USA does...but give it time, at this rate we'll catch up.

It's his base that is likely to stage that coup if he drags on the shutdown. Of course the Epstein files matter or he wouldn't be trying so hard to cover them up

There’s just not enough attention being paid to how unqualified, psychologically unfit, and dangerous so many of these new ICE hires potentially are.
If we had a Congress, there’d be investigations & oversight into this.
