It sounds like your boy, Donny, is prepared to take out a country at the behest of Israel, and invade Greenland. Are you sure that is the right thing to do? I guarantee you it will be impossible for an American to go anywhere in the world without an armed escort very soon.
But then, you probably have a nice ministerial job in Trump's new version of his autocracy. Yeah, all good things must come to an end. It is America's turn. No FEMA - Natural disasters rampant throughout the Mid West and South - good thing there is no such thing as Climate Change, right? How are those folks up in Asheville? Seems they will be living in trailers for a very long time.
No social security payments? Are you prepared for thousands of bankruptcies? You could buy lots of stock in tents and sleeping bags. That might look nice in your portfolio in what is left of Wall Street.
Bird Flu and Measles should just run their course according to Dr. RFK Jr? What's a few less mouths to feed? Non-productive people should just die, right? Sounds like the Republican thing to do - die for your country since it is too cheap to invest in medical care - except for Hospital Corporations and the Pharmaceutical Industry. Reduce the surplus population. Who needs old people and children anyway, right? It is the Republican way - death by a thousand cuts as long Clarence Thomas gets his new RV and Elon Musk pretends he can go to Mars on my Social Security money. Sure. No Republican voter will suffer, I am sure. What's a little tornado, anyway? Small potatoes, right?
Are you going to run for office again? As soon as Trump declares martial law, you will be out of a job and you can return to North Carolina an help clean up after the next natural disaster with no funds or professional assistance since Trump fired anybody who was skilled at disaster relief. Oh, we have to save money, is it? Save for what you ask? Well, Bezos needs a new yacht and he is a bit stretched for cash. Yeah.
I am tired of the lies and the excuses like James Comer, Jim Jordan and Marge Greene come up with why black and brown people are not full citizens, but white people can save the country from our enemies in Mexico, Canada, and Western Europe.
Perhaps it is a good thing to burn it all down, so angry mobs can execute people they feel caused this mess. Gun laws being what they are, they will have a good excuse now, seeing how they have been lied to and gaslighted by the Republican 2025 plan to save America from Gay people, Drag Queens, libraries, and public schools.
Yep, you people have done a great job of screwing up a pretty good deal. Did you buy a new car yet? Made in America? Tesla, is it?
And eggs? you may have stopped buying them at 15 dollars a dozen.
Life must be pretty good in Washington at the top of the heap where congressional committees argue about efficiency standards for refrigerators instead of the Pentagon leaking secrets like a sieve under a Fox News host with a drinking problem and a wife who attends top level meetings with the top brass. Who needs a security clearance anyway, since our F-35’s are expendable. Right? Donny knows best, and Pete’s an honest man. Yeah sure. Tell me another while you are at it.
Yep. MAGAmerica, land of the about to be arrested for insulting the king. Forget Francis Scott Key, He was probably a DEI hire. Wrong, he was actually a slave holder. He would fit right in with Trump's vision of a White Christian America.
We are screwed and you are not helping. Not the American people, but the ass that is knocking down the barn and fired all the carpenters because they wanted a living wage, healthcare, a home and a family, and all they get is the middle finger from their President and his toadies in Congress.
"The problem is, no matter how much he likes your Favorite President, ME, he will publicly proclaim what a terrible guy I am, etc.," posted Sir -- while forgetting to capitalize "Your".
"...security, foreign relations, energy security, “Pandemic Preparedness, Prevention, and Response,” cybersecurity, economic defense, and public safety."
SHORT VERSION: 'All the stuff me and Elon is wrecking, simultaneous!"
The only good that will come from Trump is he's causing more people to wake up. In 2015 I was deeply distressed to see what I knew to be a malignant narcissist having a chance to win the presidency. Many people I know supported Trump. I saw how otherwise nice people could vote for a harmful person. This time around these same people are beginning to say, " he is crazy, but I like some of the things he's doing." The spell that was cast on them is being lifted, however gradually over the past 10 years. Currently in Canada the same Trump supporting friends are posting memes on social media about how wrong Mark Carney is and how right Pierre Poillievre is. What's happening in Canada's election is a repeat of tactics used to elect Trump. People can be so gullible and spread misinformation with ease.
I still can't determine if Trump is just abysmally stupid or perhaps the most evil man to ever exist. I'm leaning towards abysmally stupid, because to be that evil requires a level of intelligence which he does not possess
If we didn't have legacy media fluffing "conservatives" for the last 30 years we might have avoided this. Every BS partisan accusation against Dems has gotten way more coverage than it deserved while sanewashing all of the harmful racist and corrupt behavior of team capital.
"Donald Trump has officially announced that he is just going to go ahead and end collective bargaining rights for hundreds of thousands of federal workers. Why? Because they hurted his feelings."
IMO, there is another valid reason: by union busting for federal employees it opens up the red states to end collective bargaining at that level, too. And if all goes right for the Fulvous Fuckwad's collection of friendly businessmen will be able to make use of whatever is the current version of the Pinkertons to bust heads and break unions. (I don't believe for an instant that this includes "successful" businesswomen -- they are too emotional to make sound decisions and are where they are either through the need for a woman figurehead for contractual purposes or through DEI.)
-----
"Trump cited the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 (CSRA), claiming that it allows him to end the collective bargaining rights of federal workers in agencies he has deemed to have something to do with national security."
It's interesting, at least to me, that Mooseballs Mussolini has no problem citing existing (or ancient) laws when it suits his purposes... and misinterpreting them. In his orange pip of a brain he can twist anything he wants into a concern for national security and a need to keep the homeland safe. We all saw his abuse of a wartime act: the Alien Enemies Act, to export alleged Argentinian gangbangers by designating the gang they belong to as a "foreign terrorist organization:"
> "Tren de Aragua (TdA) is a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization with thousands of members, many of whom have unlawfully infiltrated the United States and are conducting irregular warfare and undertaking hostile actions against the United States.
...
TdA has engaged in and continues to engage in mass illegal migration to the United States to further its objectives of harming United States citizens, undermining public safety
* At least the Amber Ardipithecus ramidus isn't claiming that TdA's "thousands of members" aren't all trying to unlawfully enter the US.
* "undertaking hostile actions against the United States" is part and parcel of the MAGAdroids actions. The RINOs, from the MAGA oberster Führer on down, are taking hostile actions against native born American citizens, naturalized citizens, citizens by birthright, green card holders and holders of valid visas (those who entered illegally have *always* been a favorite RINO target).
* "objectives of harming United States citizens, undermining public safety" Please see ^^^^^.
* As for irrefutable evidence, would the Sociopathic Marigold Swamp Monster care to release said evidence? Maybe he has plans to release it when the time is right, and until then it is being safely and securely stored next to proof that Mahmoud Khalil, Rumeysa Ozturk, Yunseo Chung and others are Hamas sympathizers, and that the 2020 election was rampantly fraudulent.
Of course, there is one yuge problem with the Mango Malignancy using the Alien Enemies Act to speed up the exportation of those he doesn't like, it can only be invoked during times of war. Contrary to what he thinks, he doesn't have the authority to declare war on TdA, the Mexican cartels, or anyone else; the power to declare war is the exclusive right of Congress:
> "The president may invoke the Alien Enemies Act in times of “declared war” or when a foreign government threatens or undertakes an “invasion” or “predatory incursion” against U.S. territory. The Constitution gives Congress, not the president, the power to declare war, so the president must wait for democratic debate and a congressional vote to invoke the Alien Enemies Act based on a declared war.
...
Today, some anti-immigration politicians and groups urge a non-literal reading of invasion and predatory incursion so that the Alien Enemies Act can be invoked in response to unlawful migration and cross-border narcotics trafficking. These politicians and groups view the Alien Enemies Act as a turbocharged deportation authority. But their proposed reading of the law is at odds with centuries of legislative, presidential, and judicial practice, all of which confirm that the Alien Enemies Act is a wartime authority. ***Invoking it in peacetime to bypass conventional immigration law would be a staggering abuse***." [emphasis added]
"President Trump supports constructive partnerships with unions who work with him"
IOW, any union willing to kowtow before the Sandstone Snowflake, will unconditionally accept any demands from him or his representatives during collective bargaining, and is willing to throw its membership under the bus if so directed.
How long until the American people declare war on republicans?
Email to my Senator because I am PISSED!,

Top pic is possibly the most unpleasant one of Trump I've seen yet.
"Trump Term Three: The Dry-Keeping" will at least force Sir to finally move on from "MAGA" to the equally mouth-friendly "KAG".

I suppose we should prepare for the day Trump frees *all* convicted criminals.
Yeah, the Founding Fathers didn't get that one quite right.
Pandemic Preparedness, Prevention, and Response is crucial to national security??? I never would have thought Musk believed that.
I still can't determine if Trump is just abysmally stupid or perhaps the most evil man to ever exist. I'm leaning towards abysmally stupid, because to be that evil requires a level of intelligence which he does not possess
He's like Lex Luthor with Dr. Evil and Mini-Me working for him.
Or the other way 'round.
Stupid + powerful = evil.
"In a fact sheet released on Thursday, Trump cited"
Trump hasn't done shit. He's a demented racist who plays golf all day. Someone else is directing this shit show.
This was all warned about but sadly there wasn't the clout to be had in listening to the warnings up and down the Democratic ticket. It's a shame.
If we didn't have legacy media fluffing "conservatives" for the last 30 years we might have avoided this. Every BS partisan accusation against Dems has gotten way more coverage than it deserved while sanewashing all of the harmful racist and corrupt behavior of team capital.
And we know why… because Murc’s Law is Cruise Control for Cool (and Clicks)
