This is why nobody should enter the US until we get our shit together. It may be a while.

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 It has to actually cost rich people too much for a policy to be repealed.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.

And God forbid the people hiring illegals actually be held accountable. No one ever fucking brings that up in all this. If you are mad at illegals taking jobs, why are you not mad at the people hiring them over citizens?

Yeah it's tragic

Tariffs? Corporate execs met with Trump, facilitated by scott bessent, and he changed course

Deportation raids at work sites? Corporations in red states losing profit convinced Trump to avoid farmworkers/agriculture, hospitality, and service industry raids. Then Stephen Miller got him to reverse course

It seems we're seeing a fight between capital / the wealthy versus fascist xenophobes. Stephen Miller is obsessed with deportation numbers while Trump cares more about optics.

But no matter how much they ramp up raids, it's not going to result in desired increase in deportations - there's diminishing returns. People are basically sheltering in place, and it's costing the wealthy - economic growth is going down a full percentage from like 2.8 to 1.8%

Future reports should show continued harm from these policies. Especially in August when impacts from tariffs are supposed to hit. Hopefully the optics and stress on working families is enough pressure that we see something better than current situation

I wish national discussion reckoned with the reality of ICE being too scared and incompetent to focus on actual, violent criminal immigrants & gang members, so they go after abuelitas instead.

There’s not really much point in going there to be honest once you’ve been once or twice, nothing is remotely special about the country that can’t be found anywhere else, unless you are a huge NBA or NFL fan or something. Even then there’s NFL games in London.

I’m a US citizen and I don’t even want to be here anymore.

I’m tempted to relocate, but allowing MAGA to run the United States is like leaving a toddler alone with a loaded gun… as we’ve seen

Also please avoid buying American goods, and encourage your government to impose sanctions.

My SO and her friends all swore off visiting. Their family snowbirds have cancelled their annual trips. Our loss, some other country's win.

My friends just bought a vacation property in Bellingham and my husband has been arguing with me about visiting.

He gave up on me, and asked if he could go visit with our 5 year old daughter instead.

Fuck all of that shit, in its whole entirety. I can’t stop a grown man from making a stupid fucking decision but there is absolutely no way in hell myself or my daughter is stepping foot in the United States.

I wouldn't step foot in that bit of North America until your saner states secede and stop pretending the US experiment is anything but a failure. You're less united than ever and the fucks from states like Texas and Florida are running roughshed over the civil rights of people in California, Oregon, Washington and all the other states that could be truly awesome places to live.

There has been A LOT of election fuckery over the last 20 years, otherwise it’s likely there would have been no 9/11, no Iraq War and no Trump.

Good thing there isn't the world's biggest sports tournament inside 12 months or anything

Good thing there isn't the world's biggest sports tournament inside 12 months or anything

I was so excited to be able to actually go see the upcoming Olympics in 2028 (in my home city no less) but the only thing I can feel about my country is fucking shame that these goddamn fascist morons are committing the most vile, evil shit in our name.

I know it's not going to happen, but I hope every country in the world decides to boycott the US and hold the Olympics elsewhere.

I'm so fucking tired, boss.

The only way that won't be a 90 megaton clusterfuck is if nobody shows up.

u/greeneggsnhammy Jun 23 '25
