Our government of sadists is looking for literally any excuse to imprison and abuse people.

I take it that's Russian for "Yeah, we're playing that guy like a fiddle."

Everything comes down to white men's property rights.

And those of us who aren't white men are considered part of the "property".

Like all Trump appointees, McLaughlin was clearly hired for her looks, sadism, and eagerness to lie to the public.
November 27, 2025 at 10:02 PM
He was, without question, a political prisoner.

It's starting to look that way, all right.

There was an NYT article about how DHS is arresting US citizens' spouses whose visas expired while they were in the process of applying for a green card. Which I guess makes them "deportable" even though it does NOT disqualify them for a green card. DHS is looking for any excuse to abuse people.

I suppose all narcissistic dictator-wannabes demand to have unfettered power while simultaneously insisting that they are not at all responsible for anything that happens while they're wielding it.

It's pathetic how much time this administration spends campaigning against Biden 2024.

Trumpist hacks make it really easy to spot the unqualified political appointees. No real CIA official would ever put out such an unprofessional statement.

"a $100 per person fee to enter 11 of the most visited national parks, in addition to the standard entrance fee"

So, for a family of four, the cost of spending a day at Yellowstone will go from $35 to $435???

The replies are starting to make me wonder if I should trade in our cardboard disposable litter boxes for a serious appliance...

Someone born in Afghanistan shoots two people = terrorism?

Native-born white American shoots 400 people =
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It sucks that our Supreme Court has pretty much set things up so that anyone who says "I really really super believe ____ because of Jesus" is exempt from whatever laws they don't like.

Because everyone has to be allowed to infect and kill other people's children if they really, truly, deeply believe they should be allowed to.
November 26, 2025 at 11:09 PM
I'm weirdly pleased that I don't know who that is.
November 26, 2025 at 10:49 PM
Not yet. Most of the reporting is just quoting whatever statements the cast of the Trump Show have made about it, so, not much substance so far.

The blame goes to the administration who brought the National Guard into DC as part of their political posturing and campaign of intimidation. The Guard never should have been there. They should ALL be home with their families.

"We are boycotting South Africa because they won't acknowledge (just like the media won't report on) the imaginary world that I inhabit with my TruthSocial followers."
November 26, 2025 at 10:22 PM
"This will only stiffen our resolve!"

As though the National Guard can do anything about random shooters. This is America.

"A theme woven throughout the document is that monogamy protects the equality and dignity of women."

Bless their patriarchal hearts.

Women making their own choices is what protects the equality and dignity of women.
November 26, 2025 at 10:03 PM
Exactly.

Of course Trump-America is pro-AIDS.

This is what it looks like to have an administration made up entirely of sociopaths.
November 26, 2025 at 9:56 PM
That's the only way it makes sense. Design the tools to fit the task.

The tech broligarchs are trying to build the world's biggest Swiss Army knife that can be used for every imaginable task (and will also be your friend). Nobody needs that.
November 26, 2025 at 9:47 PM
So idiotic. They never should've been there in the first place, there's nothing the National Guard can do about shootings, the Trump admin is just using the Guard as props in their political circuses.
