I keep agreeing with the idea that Trump was part of the trafficking pipeline. At some point in a system like this, the abusers wind up being part of the machinery, especially a guy like Trump who literally stuck his fingers in every industry he thought he could get away with. I don’t see him not “returning the favor” by trafficking girls from his pageants and other events to Epstein or other abusers in the network.
I’ll second my hero Mr Rogers.
We should all want to be like him.
Or “what do you mean I put your passport in my pocket? You didn’t give me a passport when I requested ID, so you’re clearly an illegal immigrant.”
No, Trump loves Trump. Everyone else is useful until they’re not, at which point they get thrown under the bus or conveniently commit suicide.
Bulgaria’s far-right government, Madagascar, Indonesia very recently, Myanmar’s still ongoing.
It’s not about doing that. It’s all about the fact that he CAN, and that Miller and Hegseth and the rest of the Heritage Foundation sees the entirety of North and South America as potential vassal states at best and colonial plantations at worst.
Oh, no. They all think they’re going to be the ones pulling the triggers on the immigrants lined up in front of the mass graves.
They just know they can’t really easily say it.
They’re small people, who think they’re big because they got a bit of power, a badge and a gun.
If it’s a weird allergy that we haven’t heard of, we might even disregard your doctor’s note.
My coworker had this happen with her cinnamon allergy.
More importantly, Christmas wasn’t really a THING in England at that point. It was mostly seen as an idle, rural thing, and it hadn’t been too long ago that Christmas was banned as a practice in the UK. Dickens wrote with the intention of bringing back the Christmases he remembered of his youth to the general awareness, and it worked.
Because he’s holding out for a spot when Trump dies. Everyone in the conservative sphere is circling the White House like sharks because they know half of everyone is gone as soon as Vance sits down - because half of them are in those seats on account of being friends with Trump and nothing more.
Money. Access to extremely advanced and intimate healthcare at a moment’s notice.
Yeah, this was “started” by fucking HUAC. They’ve just figured out how to shift the narrative crosshairs.
This is actually why a lot of public schools are so poorly funded now. Back in the civil rights era, white families who could afford it sent their kids to private schools after desegregation, where their schools could still be segregated (because they didn’t receive federal funds). The white people who couldn’t send their kids off to private or religious schools decided that “if we have to share space with black folk, we’ll just drag our formerly-white schools down to the level that black schools were at”. Cue a generation or two growing up with poorly-funded schools and it turns rapidly into a tradition - “we’ve always had low taxes from the school district, why do we need to increase it half a mill”.
Why would they bother with the license if the ICE facial app scan said she was an immigrant? I thought it was absolute and infallible…
Oh, you mean all the people who immigrated here after Trump let the Taliban take over Afghanistan?
There’s also the Gilboa DBR AR15.
They were still selling into the 30s, marketed primarily towards women (“less maintenance, no gasoline needed”, etc). The Depression really killed off the environment that allowed many people to own multiple cars, and those little electric city cars were the first to go because you needed something that was big and could actually carry your kids and your dog and your belongings and whatever else.
This is true, but as most self defense people will tell you, it only takes a small hole in another person to stop them worrying about much more than “oh damn that dude just shot me”.
He tried this, remember. Literally most of his first administration was run out of Mar-A-Lago, and now that he realizes he can be in the WH to stay, he’s more than happy to turn IT into Mar-A-Lago II: Eletric Boogaloo.
