The Trump Presidency

[Rage Against the McKee]

Would be pretty awesome if ww is right. I'm rooting for you bud.

You guys think we are going to start deporting US citizens and the Congress and Courts are going to do nothing?

Congress won't do anything. The courts will tell him to stop, but they can't make him stop.

Maybe I'm living in fantasy land but I think if they start deporting Us citizens crap is going to hit the fan for the admin.

Wetwillie by us citizens do you actually mean white us citizens?

[Rage Against the McKee]

I think he will probably revoke citizenship before deporting anyone, so he technically won't be deporting US citizens.

I assumed people already in the system but maybe it’ll be leftist provocateurs.

This is where I'm at. Why is "U.S. Citizen" such a magical demarcation? If the administration can do it to someone who has a legal right to be here and ignore a Court order in the process, you're just deluding yourself if you think there's some red line left to cross.

Not just a court order, a 9-0 extremely conservative leaning Supreme Court order. Can you imagine MAGA media if this happened last year? I'm sure they would doing shows about the fencer that will fence men but not trans people.

Speaking of the constitutional crisis that the Trump admin seems laser focused to force. Here's the latest opinion by the Fourth Circuit:

I'm sure there are cliff notes on it somewhere, but the opinion is short and well written. Worth a read for every American, really, since it practically has the tone of a eulogy for Democracy.

Bingo

Have cabinet officials ever groveled before a president to this degree? Lutnick is just humiliating himself here.

He has emails. There is zero other explanation for the former CEO of CF to do this. There is zero chance he thinks DTs is smarter than him. Zero.

Very strange that regime officials begin all public statements with obligatory remarks about the greatness of DJT prior to beginning to utter a stream of incomprehensible lies. Weird culty stuff.

Threatening to make America poor because the Brits aren’t allowed to slander gays is just mindblowing.

[michigancat]

Man I hope the Brits loudly and publicly tell us to eff off

[wetwillie]

They are far too polite to do so

[sonofdaxjones]

#blueanon loves their control states . . . and that's what Britain is becoming.

A government control grid state . . .

[LickNeckey]

how do you square this statement against the situation at Harvard?

An easy concession would be allowing the brits to say “mommies” without it being deemed hate speech

Pfft, other than their weird you can't say anything bad against the monarchy and in session parliament like. Where do you think we get our eff off crap. Get out out here with this weak ass crap

He got released this evening but honestly I don't think this is what he meant by home grown. It was a stupid Florida law SB4C thing on this one.

[chum1]

I don't know what he meant by homegrown, but anchor babies seems like as good of a guess as any. Especially when he's aniti-birthright citizenship (in spite of the document he supposedly swore to uphold).
