this is rediculous. you guys in congress know that the country cannot remain as a stable and nice place if he is not impeached. you can’t just let a president break the law constantly. impeach. impeach. impeach.
What congress? The Republicans won’t even let the house meet anymore
Art of the Deal
Stop paying your taxes. Withhold that money, until the government starts functioning again and following legal orders.
You know how the right tried to twist the truth? They told, on camera, that Trump wants to continue SNAP but legally can’t.
I really want to see a reporter ask them how that fits with reality now.
That requires a reporter with balls to exist andbe allowed within 100y of a Republican with a mic.
Depose the mad traitor king, or the starving mob will find a way.
There’s another reality where the hungry masses swarm what’s left of the White House like macrophages and destroy the rot inside, demonstrating with great visibility the it can be done, triggering a cascade of fascism FAFO worldwide.
Sadly, we seem to be in the cancer timeline where they take all the resources and starve us all to death instead.
Hang him by his feet from the white house balcony.
I do appreciate the Mussolini ending, but…
What I have been saying since Jan 6th:
Bury him alive at the feet of Lincoln, maybe a 20 foot deep shaft, just throw him in, then the concrete.
All that would indicate anything was amiss, would be an engraved gold plate on the floor, on top of the shaft, reading SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS.
… A more patriotic spin on the steretypical real estate developer method of assasination.
Leave him encased in his own disgrace, literally under Lincoln’s feet, the only suitable place for a racist insurrectionist mob boss.
And also, the plate is gold… meant to be stepped on, and the engraving wear away with time.
Sounds good, only I think lead with gold leaf would be more fitting.
I’d say we should eat him, but he looks gamey as fuck.
Let that Federal Judge know that if he want to deputize citizens to carry out his orders, I will gladly help.
Literally anyone with a brain knows the GOP and especially Trump is starving them whether they vote red or blue. Maybe all these red people need to lose their cable tv and just watch the de-programming start. Without their confirmation bias Fox/Oan/NM they become normal(ish) again.
It’s funny when you consider those networks could just do the same shit over broadcast tv but choose not to for some reason
Release the Epstein files PEDOnald!!
Can we please for the love of God have a judge actually enforce their order for once? He has shown over and over that he’s just going to do what he wants. The rest of us would have to sleep on a jail bench for a few days then still be forced to comply.
Trump doesn’t personally fill the SNAP accounts, and Trump doesn’t personally manage the money.
Start charging the employees with violating court orders.
That’s the problem with the separation of powers… The executive branch is supposed to be the one that enforces the laws… The judicial branch has very little power to actually enforce their rulings. And Trump is the head of the executive branch.
I’m not sure on the legal veracity but I read somewhere after one of his MANY ignored court orders that the Marshals might have the ability to enforce it somehow
They might. We never seem to know for sure how our own laws work, but it is a distinct possibility.
That’s what happens when the Supreme Court decides that when the president does it, it’s not illegal. He does what he wants because the Republican justices decided that The President is above the law. There literally isn’t any legal way for a judge to enforce their orders over Trump.
“Hey, guys that work for Trump, punish Trump!”
You can see why it doesn’t work so well.
Judges don’t work for Trump at least legally speaking.
No, the judges are asking the Executive branch (which Trump is the head of) to do the enforcing. The judges don’t have an enforcement arm.
But then when reporters questioned Levitt, she barked back that he IS NOT withholding them and they are being sent out as needed.
Why is it that the president makes some unhinged, mental social media post, then the white house has to translate that for the media? This is absurd and they all need to be removed from office for incompetence, then charged for all the crimes they have committed.
This is absurd and they all need to be removed from office for incompetence, then charged for all the crimes they have committed.
Why do yall keep saying things like this. It feels like there are dozens of people trapped in the thinking that somewhere some other grown ups will be the grown ups for them.
These are the people who have been picked and who have the power.
They won’t be arresting themselves, and they wont allow fair and free elections if no one forces the issue.
Can’t wait to hear your plan
Gotta show up to the antifa meetings to hear those
Since when did we start negotiating with terrorists?
Reagan
Nothing will happen until they are made to comply with physical force.
Or basically - using the exact same measures of enforcement that would be applicable to a normal citizen.
Hopefully they remember that he’ll do it anyway. Deals with him are worthless.
Yeah, the government needs to be open and functioning for SNAP to work. Right? All i hear is that SNAP isnt going to work until the government is open, and that is up to the democratics to open it? What am I missing?
Ive lived in the hood, and everyone there was selling their SNAP. I did.
Just some 1st hand knowledge for you posers.
P.s. I know some people do legit use though too, I did that too. It just is what it is.
Your first sentence is wrong. There your question is answered. Snap is pre-funded. Meaning when the government is shut down, there is still money for Snap to pay its employees and administer benefits.
Now that you k ow that do you want to rethink your other questions?
LOL what?
SNAP is delegated to the states and can function in a federal shutdown.
People will find ways to game any welfare system, but that’s not a reason to look down on them. We have so much fucking money in this country, and billionaires and corporations can just fly to fucking France to eat dinner on a whim, but criticizing the people in the lowest rungs for the reality they’re in… meh
The Democrats are no more keeping the gov’t shut down than the Republicans.
Ok… but no… its up to the democrats. What are you even talking about?
Looking at last night’s election results, that really worked out great for him. Lol.
We’re approaching a huge turning point in US (and world) history. Either republicans are going to mostly lose for a long time (at least 6 years if I were to guess), maybe until they demonstrate they’ve changed, OR they are going to succeed at rigging or cancelling elections so they don’t have to give up power. I don’t think we can expect much in between those two extremes. Makes my stomach queasy as hell to think about.
I am supremely doubtful with all the infighting on the left with the literal child mentality “but they’re both bad!!!1!” bothsiders, and the “nothing ever happens” crowd who thinks things will magically just go back to normal that it will be the good outcome.
I mean we’ve seen a number of positives recently like
- Nancy Pelosi
dyingretiring (might as well be the same things for old crotcheties like herself) - Dick Cheney dying (May god rest his soul… in hell… for all eternity)
- Prop 50 passing
- Mamdani winning with a higher percentage of votes than everyone else combined
But that’s just not enough.
They are in charge of all the institutions required for a fair or even approximately close to “”“fair”“” by old standards election and there are literally no means for recourse that aren’t just straight up violence, which despite the edgy people online’s messages, no one actually has the stomach for and is therefore just words used to procrastinate.
- Nancy Pelosi
Which is why everyone should be prepared for them to inflict physical violence upon us, because it’s coming either way.
People keep saying stuff like this, but there’s basically nothing that will turn me into a violent person outside of defending myself in the moment. I don’t own weapons and I don’t want to own them. I’d actually probably rather die than fight through that kind of a world.
I’m prepared for insults and scolding but it’s true for me and many people. No amount of people saying “buy guns” is going to change me. And I suspect most people are like this.
I’m right there with you, but there are many ways to prepare without resorting to participating. I think the mental preparation is the key, because it’s tough to stay home on election day when doing so is akin to putting the barrel against your own head.
I see. Sorry for making a false assumption about what you meant.
TBF, this particular person didn’t say buy guy, they said be ready for them to inflict physical violence, and honestly, it’s reasonably likely. Maybe not on you, or me, but surely for many and it’ll be quite visible.
That’s fair.
Rigging and cancelling. There has been no better opportunity.
I agree and am also quite queasy.
I don’t think it matters. Democrats aren’t gonna seize power and be like “Oh, my God! Would you look at all these mechanisms to abuse power! Better get rid of them!”
I don’t understand your point. Democrats also historically haven’t been the party of outright evil and fascism.
That there will be no turning point. Once the mechanisms for fascism have been established, unless an actual revolution happens, the next government will always abuse them.
So by this logic, if Democrats win back control of our government, they will also deploy the military to maintain a police state, arrest and prosecute political enemies, and deport immigrants by the thousands? I can see your point to some degree but I don’t really buy any of the things I listed would be the case.
No but they do like the idea of keeping their options open. There’s a reason they haven’t codified so many basic protections and relied on historical precedence and decorum instead.
And even with Trump they haven’t shown a willingness to admit their mistake and learn their lessons in this regard. They’ll write Trump off as a fluke and keep making all the same mistakes, including the repetition of many far-right talking points.
Holy lack of reading comprehension and historical education.
Alright cool. Lovely interaction

I’m aware. Wasn’t really referring to that far in the past.
