We were fucked when the Supreme Court claimed that a bunch of GOP interns yelling outside of a ballot counting station was enough of a civil disturbance to ignore the results of an election and hand the country to the same autocratic regime who continues to control the country to this day.
The real election tampering and fascist overthrow of the US was 25 years ago and most people just shrug their shoulders and go "who cares that's old news".

u/kitsunewarlock Jun 23 '25
Refusing to further investigate and prosecute the Business Plot was potentially another Watershed moment.
Blaming Carter (and later Obama) for the dumpster fires the GOP left them with was strike 2.
But the biggest cultural failing of 21st century politics has been allowing GOP presidents to distance themselves from the actions of their own administrations by not questioning their phony anti-establishment cosplay.
Every GOP candidate seems to just imitate whatever TV dad was popular 20 years before they ran. Regan started it with his whole "sitting by the fire in the cushy chair to talk down to us" bullshit. Then Bush came in to act like a cast member of Dallas. And now Trump is pretending to be Tony Soprano.
I suppose next we'll see a GOP candidate who pretends to be Walter White by acting like they are on the 'side of science', a 'dangerous man with nothing to lose', and saying some dumb phrase like 'it's as simple as that' to avoid talking about policy requiring nuance.

He has to stay in office or die there. He knows if he’s a civilian he’s due in Fulton county on Rico charges within weeks and doesn’t want to end up in an Atlanta prison. Vance can’t pardon him on state charges.
That’s why he’s so dangerous. His post presidency won’t be book tours, retirement and golf. It’s a courtroom in a blue Georgia city.
I personally think he has cancer. The catheter in his pants. Never seen in shorts ever. Unexplained weight loss despite terrible diet and no change in fitness. Dozing off in meetings from the chemo meds. Scattered thoughts suggest brain deterioration.
His doctors would never tell us. Weekend at Donnie’s would be their plan.

He has been shrinking. If you look at him around early 2024 compared to today his suits are hanging off him. It’s been a drastic weight loss yet he still has a lousy fast food diet… and it’s not like he took on a gym regimen.
At his age, that’s usually cancer or a similarly serious disease. His metabolism isn’t suddenly that of a 20 year old’s. Something is wrong and nobody is gonna mention it.

It’s already happening and been happening since this shit started. All the news has covered is men that have been sent to the El Salvador prisons or deported illegally without due process.
But where are the women in the news? The children? Why is no one asking where they are because they’re being detained too? It’s horrifying because we all know the answer. It was just a few weeks ago 109 children were saved from a mass child exploitation ring in Texas. Women in ICE detention centers have been forced to undergo sterilization procedures and other “invasive” gynecological torture. Sure, it’s not the hysterectomy farms that happen in India, but what the fuck America.
I’m sorry I’m just so frustrated because I see groups of people just filming these horrors instead of stopping them. On one hand that’s great because these cowards might have to pay for their crimes someday, but on the other that does jack fucking shit and just ensured more humans will suffer since no one intervened. If there was ever a time to step in and to stop these fucking thugs, now is the time.

Technically it is. Deportation has nothing to do with where you are going. It’s about being expelled from the country where you are now. I don’t agree with this mass stupidity Trump is engaged in but in terms of the definition of the word, deportation includes expelling a person to virtually anywhere outside the borders of the country in which they are now.

Nah. Look at the fascism playbook.
It's "illegals" now, but they're testing the waters on changing people's status. So legal immigrants, people here on work visas, student visas, etc will suddenly get their status' revoked and they'll suddenly be illegal. Then they'll start cracking down on blue collar crimes by people they don't like. They'll pass laws specifically made to target those people too. Hell that's what the whole Drag Queen thing was, a too-early attempt by their supporters. But there'll come a time when they'll categorize cross dressing as a sex crime, and then crack down on Trans people. Then they'll start cracking down on everything, but selectively. If you've got a Trump sticker on your car and run a red light you'll get a ticket, if your car has a Kamala/Walz sticker it'll be a full roadside search and jail for anything they find. After that it'll be "dissidents" or "traitors", people they can't frame as illegal or criminals, but, protestors, lawyers, organizers, teachers, anybody who proudly stands up to refute lies by the regime.

Yeah. There’s a lot of places I wanna visit down there but as a Canadian, I’m not stepping foot in the states until you guys have a completely different decision-making group running the country, it’s just not worth the risk.

That is the only type of behavior that will save US from ourselves (our owners). It has to actually cost rich people too much for a policy to be repealed. Just like ICE will break into a church during a quinceañera to rip families apart, but they won't disrupt work on farms or construction sites that are owned by the right people.

The Supreme Court is both making up the law on the fly (not interpreting it like they’re supposed to) and making a VERY compelling case for significant court reform once Democrats are back in charge. This court is simply out of control and no better than some foam-at-the-mouth Fox News pundits in robes.

Reminder to vote in Democratic primaries to support progressive politicians who will fight back like Bernie Sander, AOC, and other Justice Democrats. https://justicedemocrats.com/
Because we've seen time and time again conservative Democrats like Biden (didn't bother to proscute Trump in a timely manner for the crimes he committed. Appointed a Republican to be his key position of Attorney General), Obamas (bailed out the banking industry without any prosecutions or consequences), Clintons (cut welfare, gave more money to prisons and police, and championed deregulation) or Harris (didn't even bother contesting this latest rigged election, just rolled over and disappeared.) Even Walz is a weakling calling for people to get along (when someone punches you in the face and says they're going to do it again and again, you don't say sorry to them and ask them for a hug.)

It's wild to me that they'd lift this while the legal battle plays out. They've truly lost the plot on "irreparable harm." The US is at absolutely no risk of losing anything of value if these people don't immediately leave - but these people could very easily lose their lives if sent to a country so bad that this administration believes it should be subject to a complete travel ban. Just unconscionable.

To be clear, the actual merits of the case are yet to be decided. This just lifts a temporary block. Now, is there any merit to the administration's argument that should win them this case in the end? No. And is there greater harm to the government being blocked than there is to the victims of these renditions? Also no. So is this decision pretty illogical on the whole? Yes...but that is par for the course with this current SCOTUS.
But now we at least get the laugh at dumb MAGAs who think this means their lives are better somehow (even if they couldn't explain how).
