tRump is a small man who gains power by empowering terror and dramatic cruelty as a way of showing “he’s the man.”

MAGA elected this man who sat by mutely in the Oval Office while a South African dismantled the federal government and had access to the private information of all US citizens. Then he empowered ICE to use increasingly violet means to round up so called illegal immigrants of course mixed in w/ lots that aren’t. Now it appears he losing his marbles in public.

This is your fault MAGA. He lied so much, you now have to believe his lies or risk acknowledging you have destroyed this country’s reputation and created total havoc. Tough choice admitting that you elected a chauvinistic ignorant narcissist that may be descending into dementia. And he’s surrounded himself with toadies so there are very few adults in federal government. Scary times!

But even as he descends into dementia, he has enabled and empowered a cadre of equally cruel and violent people to carry out his orders. And never forget that his base thinks this is all OK.

I am unable to think of even one individual in trump's toilet 🚽...I refuse to refer to it as a cabinet....that possesses just one ounce, one shred of decency, integrity, or honor. These fiends are the vilest of the vile.

Why....Why....Why was this foul being ever elected to the Oval Office? Surely even the most honorable, decent people knew, in their hearts of hearts, that this man did not, and does not belong in a position of power and prestige. Surely they knew that he has dishonored the Office with his own perverted dreams and delusions of power.

I have never been so disappointed in our people, our nation.

Toilet may be too complimentary when describing that debris field of dispassionate dumpster divers. Sadly the Trump nominees were chosen for their fealty and willingness to walk through the gates of Hell to serve his demented desires. Their incompetence tends to work in his favor , every indiscretion , every mistake draws the eyes that should be watching away from the true crimes and misdemeanors occurring at 1600.

While the house are deciding the ethical implications of the latest cabinet faux pas , Trump’s cronies are emptying America’s treasures into a truck for transport to Mar a lago. Figuratively speaking of course. His crimes are much more sophisticated , the sell off of presidential influence is much more damaging to America.. Trumps Republicans are a feckless , spineless lot , either so afraid of a depends wearing , deeply demented small dick - tator that they can no longer think for themselves , or they are comfortable in the knowledge that Trump will dream up a national emergency , perhaps an attack from the Heard islands penguin military , to “postpone” the midterms . So , you were on the right track with “ toilet “…iId go one further , a septic tank in dire need of emptying.

The beauty of these protests is that they are not confined to big cities. It’s much harder to intimidate people in every state and within several municipalities in each state. The protests have been peaceful and fun.

If a MAGA type or Proud Boy tries to engage you, ignore them. They may try to infiltrate the marchers to engage in violence that will be blamed on the protesters. Do not let them. Keep your head. Don’t give them any excuse. Trump and his goon squad will be itching for a fight. Peace

The Supreme Court is an appellate (appeals) court, meaning they take cases that have travelled through the lower courts without any of those courts being able to rule on the case in such a way as to satisfy everyone who has a dog in that particular fight. The Supreme Court ruling will be the final sayso forever! But they do not bring up a case to themselves! So, until Trump is arrested or at least sued in some lower court, the Supreme Court is a bystander. Individually, the justices might be able to sway thoughts or actions but probably won’t out of fear of falling victim to “damned if you do and damned if you don’t. They didn’t cause the problem and probably will not get involved.

Although , if someone filed a petition to have the Presidential Immunity ruling reversed , they could probably do that. Of course it would start at a lower court level, but stripping Trump of his immunity status would likely stop a lot of what’s going on , because he’d now become liable. The Supreme Court is just as afraid of Trump retribution as any other American. the difference is they have power the average American doesn’t.

The term “illegal” as applied to immigrants is generally almost always legally incorrect, although there are rare cases where the label “illegal” may be applicable.

Leaders of MAGA, Vatniks, and xenophobes in Europe, Canada, the UK, and elsewhere insist on using terms like “illegal” and “aliens.” They exploit both the ignorance and the xenophobia of their base, relying on people's unwillingness to understand how immigration status is granted. This enables them to vilify undocumented immigrants — a classic “divide and rule” tactic.

They also exploit a deeply unempathetic (and arguably anti-Christian) inability to sympathize with others.

Most people fleeing their countries can’t obtain U.S. visas — they simply run. If they could get a visa, they would. In fact, if getting a U.S. visa is a normal and accessible process in your country, then your country is likely in relatively good shape — meaning you probably don’t face the kind of urgency that forces people to flee, risking their last resources, health, and lives in search of refuge or asylum elsewhere. People from the UK, Canada, Europe, or Australia don’t seek refuge in the U.S. (Will Americans soon begin seeking refuge in Canada, the UK, or Europe?)

People seeking refuge or asylum usually don’t have U.S. documentation — that’s why they’re called “undocumented.” It doesn’t mean they have no documents at all. Once they reach the U.S., apply for asylum or another status, and receive approval, they are issued U.S. documents — they become documented immigrants.

A U.S. official cannot issue them documentation without first granting some form of legal status. Therefore, once an undocumented immigrant is granted such a status, they become a legal immigrant.

Cruelty was never great. Violence will never be great. Lies and lawlessness will never be great. What in gods name is MAGA’s idea of great?

It appears to be a mashup of white supremacy & so-called Christian Nationalism (I can barely use the word Christian in that context. It’s so offensive)

Is MAGA’s idea of great nation-wide Jim Crow? What a horrid vision for any country. What a horrid existence for anyone’s children to endure or learn to perpetrate.

But even if that is MAGA’s fever dream, they need to wake up & realize, the Trump regime has another view. They may throw you your white supremacy and Christian Nationalism, but you’ll have to enjoy it in your serfdom. Because that’s what the Trump/Musk crowd sees for you. Not prosperity, not comfort, just service to the filthy rich. The oligarchs. The corporations and their senior officers.

If these people realize their pictures and personal information are going to be made public , they may re-think their career choices. At the very least it will adversely affect their officer recruiting program. The public has a right to know who’s doing this.

America has crossed the line. The line of hope that reason and humanity could find a way back into our societal structure and our government. We are too far gone now.

America has become the old tyrannical, we shall kill anyone who even whispers dissent Soviet Union; America has become the current Putin fascist, terrorist, gulag regime.

The dream that Americans had, persisted in believing, about America: that we were inclusive, compassionate, fair, is gone. America has been overthrown by fascists.

Where’s a well-placed bolt of lightning when you need one, huh? All we can do is hope Karma comes calling SOON.

They’re doing this in the middle of the night for a reason. It’s wrong and they know it. We have to fight for people, but it’s hard to do when you don’t see it happening, when you’re home in bed.

Our government at work, keeping us “safe” from what I ask? We need to have a long hard look at ourselves. If you support such cruelty and inhumanity, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. YOU ALONG WITH THE LIKES OF THE STEPHEN MILLERS, TOM HOMANS, KRISTI NOEMS, PAM BONDIS…YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
