Trumpers have outright said they don’t care if he breaks the constitution. They are nazis. They want this.
Oh we all have.
Remember skinheads and how they aren’t seen anymore?
Ok so well You know how sometimes you see those white guys who are incels and get SUPER DUPER into WWII history and then pop out later saying they think hitler ‘had his reasons’ to do what he was doing and start rationalizing genocide because the world ‘isn’t fair to white guys anymore’.
and they have a fascination to end woke cuz they think that’s what took all their privilege over everyone else away. They see being educated about WWII being bad as being ‘woke’. And this all used to be the 12-15 yr olds playing 1942.
Yeah… so they infiltrated the conservative parties in all western countries right now and fighting to bring back facism. Conservatives you’ll notice is a conglomerate now and it’s rife with infighting because you have the old school conservatives that never went this way and it’s been flushed in with these scary beings they don’t want to piss off. That party would decimate if either side leaves too cuz they’d never have this win over the liberals should they divide again. So they are at odds with each other : pwn libs at the cost of constitution or certain demise?
You’ll notice There is a distinct homogeneousness to the conservatives in all countries right now too.
It just so happens to be on the heels of propaganda fake overs on global social platforms such as x and Facebook. Which just so happens to be the exact CEOs that showed up to the inauguration.
My great-grandfather was there on D-Day.
A good portion of his descendants are hard Trump supporters and are pro-nationalism and pro-fascism.
Glad he’s not around to see his family literally turn and support the very things he fought against.

James Wheeler-Hill, national secretary of the Bund, opened the night with the statement that “if George Washington were alive today, he would be friends with Adolf Hitler.”[
If Adolf Hitler were alive today, he would be friends with Donald Trump.

I guess hate is just part of the human experience.
welcome to the reality of humanity. but we can change it. most behavior is learned. we could easily teach new generations love and compassion but that will never happen until every sociopath and idiot on this planet is eradicated. do you want this cycle to continue endlessly? no? then wake up. nothing gets better until there is a global purge.
Yeah, honestly the US really didn’t want to take sides. A shocking number of Americans supported Hitler. But then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and that sort of unified the country to fight on the anti-fascism (antifa, for short) side of the war.

We literally had a common threat facing the world five years ago and humans were not united. I’m pretty sure an asteroid level threat would have similar consequences.
A common threat like climate change has not been very effective sadly.

Have you by chance read the comic Watchmen?
Don’t forget the New Guard in Australia, who put on a big show at the opening of the famous Sydney Harbour Bridge

They are GIDDY with appreciation. It’s a saying now with the Trump nuts I work with. ‘‘Hope they send him to El Salvador’’ whenever someone cuts them off. The cruelty is the point. No more being scared or intimidated by brown people, they no longer have human rights!
Omfg that’s messed
did you just get here? yes. cruelty is the point. stop trying to understand. the only thing you need to know is ‘guns’.
They did mention 100,000 antifascist protectors outside that day. 5 times the number of the members of the organization. It is something at least.

They’ve been further educated by the “internet” and now believe they had the wrong allies.
The governors have to allow it. The federal government cannot mobilize the military in a state unless the governor of that state allows it. Posse Comitatus, if Trump attempts to send in the military against the governors wishes, we are talking civil war levels of federal vs state’s rights. I hope state militias are ready to defend themselves.
Knowing Texas, Abbott will roll out the red carpet for this. Maybe I need to move to California or Illinois to get a governor that won’t bend over.
Hell, Abbot and Paxton probably called Trump and directly suggested it. Fuck Texas.
What consequences for breaking the laws that enforce rules like those have have been applied so far to this administration?
We’ll see what happens with the new yes men in place. However, there was a DoD wide email that went out when he first started snatching people (though some didn’t get it for some reason). It stated:
Think long and hard before assisting other agencies outside the DoD. If your actions are deemed to be against your oath, you could be investigated and actions taken against you. Remember, you serve the constitution of the United States. Not the president.
Wa state has just passed a law stating that other state’s national guard, cannot enter our borders to take any actions. I would bet that that would include military personnel stationed in state.

if the governors don’t allow it. ICE could arrest them per E.O.
ICE would have to battle the governor’s security. ICE doesn’t have the stones to go up against people who aren’t essentially terrified and helpless.

I’ve written this multiple times in the last few months. I’ll keep doing it because people need to get the message: There isn’t going to be an impeachment, and even if there were, it would fail.
The impeachment process requires cooperation from both houses of congress. A simple majority in the house of representatives must vote to approve articles of impeachment. Then the Senate decides what to do with them. They can hold a trial or they can just vote. Conviction requires a 2/3 majority of the Senate. This is why both attempts to impeach Trump previously already failed. The Senate Republicans simply moved to an immediate vote and killed it.
Now, consider that Republicans currently hold a majority in both houses. THERE WILL BE NO IMPEACHMENT barring a major upset in the midterm elections. Even then it is almost guaranteed to fail. Impeachment is not going to save us.
i think everyone realises that there will be no impeachment, but it’s useful to point out that any single 1 of these acts SHOULD result in impeachment and that it’s REPUBLICANS as a whole that are betraying their role in the system; not ONLY a single man

I dunno about you, but I wanna see how many impeachments Trump can rack up before he leaves office/dies. I’m hoping for at least triple digits.
That would just prove that we have no real consequences for breaking our laws if you’re the president and that impeachments are toothless.
Yeah. And would that matter? If things are going downhill no matter what, I want some excitement.
It’s good to know the suffering of American citizens is your preferred form of entertainment.

Everything he does can be grounds for impeachment, but if the republicans control all branches of government even if impeached (he was impeached 3 times last time) they will never remove him from office.
EDIT: Y’all notice a common pattern on all those “peace officers” on the picture?
And the police, like the little lapdogs they are, will happily stomp on people’s rights for a chance to cosplay war
What did you expect? They’ve been doing exactly that for their whole history.
Militarize the police
It wasn’t yet? US police has fucking tanks and mraps, it is already militarized, just without the training and restraint
Clearly they need cybertrucks and Hugo Boss uniforms
Holy fucking shit… 1000$ for an asylum claim? And 3500$ for children. This is monstrous. I am an immigrant and naturalized citizen to Canada and I never had to pay that much legal fees for immigration and citizenship.
The cruelty is the point. In fascism, empathy is seen as a sign of weakness and emasculation.
guns

A third executive order requires professional truck drivers to be proficient in English.
Higher requirements than the office of president.
Building a corrupt police state one EO at a time.
Always fucking has been.
A second order further militarizes local police departments, while providing legal resources to officers accused of abuses; it also seeks to undo federal consent decrees for departments that have committed civil rights abuses and seeks to punish local officials who “unlawfully prohibit law enforcement officers from carrying out duties.”
That’s not militarization, it’s promoting lawlessness and removing any remaining accountability.
Seattle PD literally had to be partially taken over by the federal government because it was so corrupt and would not curb its officers… this is going to be VERY problematic in Seattle and surrounding areas.
By definition the federal government will return Seattle PD back into what it was, but with federal backing and technical support.
I’m in a smaller city and even our local PD has two apcs. This is a nightmare.
I am going to short on my American stocks for the next four years. Trump won’t want to step down at the end of his term and when that happens, there will be chaos.
I dumped all my us stocks as soon as Trump was getting warmed up, I won’t be going back for some years irrespective of perceived returns potential
Same, I just wanted to get out of the US market. It’s not even about how the stocks perform or about making money. Even if a good opportunity to buy presents itself in the future I will never buy US stocks as long as they are sinking deeper into fascism.
Absolutely disgraceful. Y’all are cooked.
Never vote for another fucking establishment democrat ever again.
They always fucking lie and say they can’t do anything, then a republican comes into office and does EVERYTHING.
Fuck everyone who voted against Bernie in the primaries.
Upset with Democrats for following the rules and blame them when Republicans break the law? We want all parties to follow the rules, not more politicians commiting crime to get their way.
Rules? The democrats talk about having their hands tied and they can’t do shit, and only float ideas around. Ideas that never materialize. The Republicans then claim the dems are dictators and do as they please and all the chaos is from their ideas that were never implemented. You know the green new deal and defund the police? Nothing of the green new deal ever happened, but the Republicans acted as if everything was fully enact. And police funding actually soared during their administrations, but Republicans act like all police forces were gutted (remember the cowardly police action at Uvalde? They claim it was the police defunding that caused it when the Uvalde PD’s funding was never touched).
I sometimes wished we lived in the fantasy world Republican propagandists say we live in. If we did, ironically none of the fascists we see online or on TV would be around since they would all be conveniently ‘disappeared’.
Because most (not all) of the Democrats are trying to govern, but most (not all) of the Republicans are trying to take advantage of the system.
The problem (as I see it) is that more money is being poured into the Republican party from many angles. They have reinforced think tanks, special interest groups, media platforms, billionaires, etc where they profiteer off of winning. The Democrats have some of that, but woefully behind.
Welcome to the police state, y’all
