    I wake up every single day thanking the stars I’m not an American. What a fucking disaster this country is. Vote for a rapist, get raped, I guess.

    As I’ve said, many a time, once dictatorship’s instantiated, he’ll not just remove the vote from all non-Republicans, he’ll de-naturalize all non-Republicans, then they can be ICE’d…

    making it criminal to do ANY trade with “illegals”/woke.

    I found out that he & Miller had a 1-MILLION deportations quota on ICE, for their 1st year…

    You’re too far in nazi territory, when you’re doing that kind of shit … there’s no pretending that away, any more than there’s any pretending-away Israel’s admission that it’s annexing territory from Lebanon, once it’s got Hamas controlled/down…

    Putin, Trump, Netanyahu, Millei… same fundamental-values, they’re demonstrating…

    & the fools who are “certain” that social-pressure will prevent the tippingpoint from being crossed…

    …solving the wrong problem, while helping the enemy that is walking our world into its “secondary-crime-scene”, for our world’s butchery…

    The Great Filter’s actual! This century is it…

        Can’t yall just make it easy and emigrate, eventually? That way they can just be in their own little secluded isolated delusional pedophilic dystopia they so yearn to have? At this point majority of the world dislikes anything US already, the damage is done. Going to taje decades to reverse.

          You can’t move 100M anywhere for a lot of reasons.

          • You don’t want to have a corresponding loss of whites defeating the purpose especially if its your more skilled and valuable people leaving first.
          • You don’t want them taking their wealth with them
          • Nobody can absorb that many people not singly or even all together
          • A substantially portion will refuse to leave
          • You can’t give due process to a sufficient number or yet pretend that due process doesn’t exist

          If you let it play out naturally you’ll have concentration camps, a death toll that would shame Hitler, and nobody coming to the rescue because nobody invades a nuclear armed nation. After that you’ll have a psychotic insane dictatorship threatening all of you and potentially touching off Armageddon after threatening everyone and attacking some of you.

          The uninvolved can still die of starvation after the bombs drop.

    States are well within their power to ignore most of this. They don’t answer to the executive branch.

      The elephant in the room is him ordering the postal service not to deliver ballots from people not on the federal approved voter list. The postal service isn’t state ran. Trump doesn’t have direct control over who the post master is, but the board that selects the post master is mostly empty seats so I guess he could flood it with sycophants with support from congress and appoint a new post master if this one puts up any resistance.

      It also seeks to bar the U.S. Postal Service from sending absentee ballots to those not on each state’s approved list.

      Legal experts noted other potential flaws with the order. David Becker, a former Justice Department lawyer who leads the Center for Election Innovation and Research, said the Postal Service is run by a board of governors [not state governors] and the president has no power to tell it what mail it can and cannot deliver.

      A spokesperson for USPS said Tuesday the agency will review the order. Trump has sought to bring the independent agency under more presidential control, proposing to fold it under the Commerce Department — whose secretary, Howard Lutnick, was on hand for Tuesday’s signing.

        The USPS can be bypassed through strategic and frequent placement of ballot dropboxes. I already didn’t use the postal service after the bullshit Trump tried to pull in 2020. It’s better to use the dropboxes in every way except for one, and in my case it’s only a block to get to the dropbox so it doesn’t even apply.

          Look for them to seize these along with mail in ballots not on the approved list. We are going to end up either accepting Republicans after they fix the election or taking action.

            Seize them out of the sealed ballot boxes? I mean, maybe, but that’s not what is being referred to here - most states with mail in ballots also have drop boxes that do not require mail.
