ICE Gestapo agents are Nazis who have been deputized to live their abusive murderous fantasies.

he’s going to have plenty of time to remind everyone how much of an amoral weasel he is and by the time the primaries have rolled around there will be a lot of other options who don’t spend all their time cozying up to right wingers on the internet

Trump: "I'm the tariff king and the tariff king has done a great job"

Trump is trashing Medicaid again, like a whiny toddler.

"Getting rid of the middle-men" = "screw the people, rob them blind".

"Send the money directly to the people" = "screw the people, enrich Trump, and his billionaire pedo-friends".

I think I'd be willing to cut off my right arm if the Nobel Committe rescinded the prize. Machado would receive the karma she deserves, and Trump's head would explode. A win-win.

I'll add: Some of his social media stuff is good, fine. And he gets how you have to use media. But I'd argue the message is more important than the medium at this point in history.

I've been banging the 'I like Gavin Newsom for president' drum for a long time, but I'm no longer banging it, which is a pity, because he LOOKS presidential, is the right age, and - on paper - has the policies, but I'm afraid he's a feckless fake populist grifter, like Trump.

Trump and his stupid "deals", which is merely a euphemism for bribery, threats, and blackmail.

This is where Trump is dragging us, kicking and screaming, with a hook through our necks, and we are like bad actors, who don't know how to behave when a maniac waves an axe at our faces.

To know what Trump is capable of, just read anything that's ever been written about Malignant Narcissists, who are distinguished from psychopaths, only in that psychopaths aren't always gleeful sadists, like Antichrist Trump.

ICE is younger than my blog

ICE is younger than my email address

ICE is younger than at least one of my ukuleles
I'm just going to point out that ICE is about 23 years old. It was formed as part of the response to 9/11 and was reactionary, performative, and racist from the start.

Its not eternal. This is not a thousand-year Reich.

Trump may not have the means of Hitler, but he has the pathology of Hitler in spades.

America... you already gave Trump a cookie, and shiny gold medal for staging a bloody-coup, what are you going to give him when he's gassing immigrants in death-camps, a golden jet? A bevvy of underage girls to fuck?

Congress is clearly not stopping this. They're either too feckless, inept and complicit to do so.

Awful: Trump's budget for scaling up immigration detention means "we could be looking at an ICE detention system as large or even larger than the entire federal prison system."

On the pod, @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social is so good on Leavitt's meltdown and ICE lunacy:

Trump Press Sec Erupts in Fury at Media over ICE as Polls Spiral Again
As Karoline Leavitt loses it at journalists amid a brutal polling downturn, an immigration expert explains how the White House’s refusal to admit error on ICE portends a Forever War against Americans.

What ICE is doing is literally the definition of terrorism. They are terrorizing cities and neighborhoods so immigrants will self-deport out of misery or fear. This shouldn’t be controversial. The Trump administration boasts about it.

If some great person won a Nobel Prize, and gave it to me, I would not be elated in the least, I'd be ashamed, embarrassed, and grief-stricken, for my heart would know that I didn't earn it, and don't deserve it. That's because I'm not a shallow, vain, narcissistic little orange baby.

One doesn't have to be wise to understand that the rings on my fingers, my pretty pink pendant, this nice warm dressing-gown, the slippers I'm wearing, the roof over my head, even my arms, legs, torso, and head, they are all burning, passing away, being annihilated as I type this post...

Ordinary, mundane affairs torment me, the ennui of it all, the spectacle of the world smashing into a wall of shit, my mortality, which weighs on me a little more every day, regret for mistakes, disatisfaction with this, and that... But I'd rather be me than Trump.
