How incomprehensibly long is this backlog of unaddressed matters going to be?

If we protest he’ll send in the troops so that he can have his goons grab people off the streets.

If we don’t protest, he’ll have his goons grab people off the streets.

Seems like protesting puts an obstacle and the goons grabbing.

Jon Stewart and getting fascists to change their neckwear. Is there a more iconic duo?

On one hand, it’s useless performative bullshit. On the other hand, Trump seems to be exactly the kind of guy to get really upset about that sort of thing.

Unfortunately, back in the Bush years, a little while before the second gulf war, they passed a bill to invade the Hague if Americans got tried there. Folks will have to seek justice through other channels.

In a banana republic, what’s a president but a local representative of the company?

It’s a per curiam decision, we don’t get to know.

We do get to know that Coney Barrett recused herself, which is what allowed an even split (and by extension the upholding of the lower court’s decision).

If David Brooks and William Kristol can bring themselves to say “Abolish ICE” then it’s time for the centrist Dems to take that stance and the left end of the party to debate in favor of RICOing that entity.

Once Kennedy was in at HHS, the lobotomies were sure to follow.

And likes/is liked by his spouse.

Only according to the Castillan occupiers. Not the Catalans who live there.

We’re gonna have a great leap forward, folks. “The Greatest Leap Forward”, people are calling it. Now that I’ve liberated our economy we’re gonna make everything here at home, some of you literally making things at home. Backyard steel mills, backyard chip fabricators.

We’re gonna get rid of the pests, too. We’re getting ahead of this bird flu, Bobby Kennedy, RFK, he tells me he’s gonna Smash the Sparrows. We’re not gonna have another flu like we did under Sleepy Joe.

They probably were intending/expecting arrests. There are probably protesters who didn’t go into the library because they specifically don’t want a criminal record (especially if they’re on a visa or some such).

And you can see in the comments here how angry the arrests are getting some people.

That’s the goal of a lot of nonviolent protest. Get your allies loud about it and split some moderates away from the authorities that they hadn’t really thought of as “the bad guys” before.

If there’s not room for center-right former Republicans in today’s Democratic Party…

My man, there was room for hard-right current Republicans Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney. You know what their support brought to the ticket last November? Two votes in Wyoming.

The VC guys who radicalized themselves in group chats with Humpty Dumpty, Peter Thiel, and Curtis Yarvin have come to like him.

But it’s because over the last decade or so their libertarianism curdled into fascism.

Will removing him as CEO really matter? As long as he’s as heavily invested in the company as he is, its gains are his gains.

VP is required to be eligible to become president, so he’d have to become VP two years and one day into a later president’s term. Assuming that we’re letting constitutionality get in his way.

New chapter for Art of the Deal just dropped. Peace in our Time, ghostwritten by Neville Chamberlain.

Human trafficking is probably the more promising direction.

If it’s under a certain dollar amount and not to be sold, sure, but this is probably not going to practical for a lot of things unless you’re pretty close to the border.
