| In my opinion we are building towards something. Is it civil war? Maybe. Sometimes it feels like the path we are on. I think it’s more likely they are hoping to have Trump use the insurrection act to stop the midterms. The GOP is terrified of losing control. Although they’ve ceded control to a petulant, spoiled 3 yo. |
This. They have a civil war now. It just doesn’t look like what it did in the 1860s. It won’t look like 1860s because we were an agrarian culture, nowadays not so much. But Trump is putting troops in blue cities, aggressive and not something a leader of a country would do. He clearly serves only one part of the population. |
Iranians have no ability to change their government through nonviolent means, we do. Don't fight = obeying the law, and having the opportunity to change policies through voting instead of through the violent revolution you're advocating. Engage in violence and reap predictable and justified consequences. Vote and get the policies you want, as long as enough people agree with you. Minority preferences don't prevail in democracies. |
Minority preferences prevail in a former democracy when a President deploys troops to liberal cities for punishment and control. |
You are naive and uninformed. ICE killed a US citizen on the street because she was a terrorist just like Iran killed their terrorists in the street. Trump will deploy tanks, a10’s and the US military to kill Americans if they rise up. |
ICE is arresting and killing Americans citizens in the streets. ICE concentration camps hold thousands of US citizens in Texas. |
Good was NOT a terrorist. Stop lying to rationalize her murder, you tool. |
This is the type of stupid we are dealing with. Texas has 2.1 million undocumented persons and Florida has over 1 million, yet they want to terrorize Minnesota. Why does is take 50 "agents" to abduct a man in their underwear from their home who ends up being an American citizen. |

I honestly think we are within weeks/month of Trump trying to send in federal goons to take over the MN state house and Governors office.
That's where all of this is leading. |
The U.S. is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939—six years into the Third Reich and just before the start of World War II. https://degenerateart.beehiiv.com/p/into-the-abyss |
days/weeks - not months. |
| It makes me sad that we’ve had ten years of dysfunctional government now. There are people in their mid-20’s who have no idea what a properly functioning United States is supposed to look like. |
This isn’t about “policies.” It’s about behavior: grifting, unethical and illegal activities by the government, brutality against citizens, human rights violations, etc. |
To what end? What’s he going to do with it? It’s already a part of the US. |
First off, ICE is LIMITED LAW ENFORECEMENT ON THE FEDERAL LEVEL. Its name is Immigration and Customs Enforcement, it is not Immigrations and Citizen Enforcement. If two people walk towards you: one with no gun or tactile gear with their face uncovered average age 25-50 and female and the other average age 25-50 male with multiple weapons, tactile gear and a covered face who exactly is the violent one? |
