The problem with that is if trump himself doesn’t pull the trigger, anyone who does can be prosecuted. I think that’s the point when the military stops taking illegal orders. The “I was only following orders” didn’t work for the nazis and I doubt it will work for them.

Ta, Marcie. Why the fuck does Noem have a private jet at her disposal? Is she using it for a bathroom, since no one decent will let her use their facilities?

There IS unrest in Portland! There ARE outside agitators! There IS great potential for mass violence, provoked by the use of arms and chemical weapons! Just don’t mention that it’s all down to an alphabet soup of ICE, CBP, FBI, paramilitary “Federal Police”, masked, helmeted, outfitted in full tactical gear and eagerly deploying teargas and pepper balls because they don’t need no stinkin’ de-escalation.

This force has been recruited with five-figure bonuses. Many of them probably could not pass a criminal background check or explain their mission or supporting policies..

Do you think the Nobel Peace Prize committee is watching his goons tear gas pastors and dudes in frog costumes?

I think I can explain why conservative brains glitch out. It's all those fairy strokes. I got the following lowdown from Google AI:

Key aspects of the fairy stroke:

Causes:

Fairies were thought to inflict these conditions by "shooting" people with invisible fairy darts or creating a sudden "fairy eddy" or "fairy wind".

Symptoms:

A fairy stroke could result in symptoms such as paralysis, blindness, madness, or permanent lameness.

Mythical context:

It was a common belief that a victim might be replaced by a fairy simulacrum, or that a person could be "carried away" to the fairy world.

Irish connection:

In Ireland, the term was associated with ill fate or destiny, particularly for those born during the time of Pentecost, a concept known as kinkisha.

Modern usage:

The word "stroke" to describe a sudden paralytic seizure in humans is directly linked to the old belief in the fairy stroke.

Lindsey Graham and Scott Bessent seem to be agents of fairyland.

"Can’t wait to hear what legal justifications DOJ lawyers come up with in court"

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The only "legal justification" Trump EVER thinks he needs for doing things is "'Cuz I'm the President, and I wanna."

After announcing "the first phase" of the Gaza cease fire, Trump is already salivating over his Nobel. Little does he know that there are no MAGAbichos in the committee that decides this honorific. Just intellectuals (and thus not MAGA) who fucking hate him and don't give a damn that he sat around and mumbled stupid shit while the actual participants of this conflict hammered it out.

If ICE ICE puppy killer Barbie nabbed the girlfriend of the founders of antifa, I hope they have oxygen handy, cause that gurl gotta be oolllldddd.(antifa , is a decentralized movement, lacks a formal hierarchy or membership, and has been around since like, the 1930's).

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Auntie Fah

I am avowedly anti-fascist. Yet I have never... 1) been given an antifa membership card (none exists), 2) seen or distributed antifa literature (none exists), 3) attended, witnessed or heard of an antifa meeting (none exists), 4) and until dumbfuck DHS SEC opened her puppy-killing mouth, had never heard of a such thing as the "antifa leader" or "his antifa girlfriend" (because none exists). Yet supposedly it's as lethal and well organized as Hamas.

"Maybe Tina Kotek is that girlfriend of the founder of Antifa Noem says she met?"

`

Since Gov. Kotek is an out lesbian, surprise twist: Our Founder is ALSO a girl!

Oh, darn. Now I've gone and spilled the beans.

The Dictator's Playbook:

Step 1: Fabricate a problem

Step 2: Provoke a violent reaction

Step 3: Send in the military

Step 4: Provoke more violent reactions

Step 5: Invoke martial law

Worked for the Nazis, after all.

Is the mayor of Chicago Black or a woman? I really don’t know but assume one or both since “low IQ.”

Edit: Black, per the Google machine. This is an easy game.

Women are "nasty".

POC are "Low IQ".

For someone who's constantly insulting people, he doesn't have much of a repertoire of insults.
