Shit like this makes me want to dress up as an ICE agent and go there every 2-3 days and make sure they're scrambling so much that it tanks their business from the chaos to day-to-day operations
Nah, they'll try to screw with you for impersonating a federal agent. Just take a whistle and blow it randomly every couple of hours. Discredits her and panics every illegal within hearing range. It'll still fuck up their business.

The bacon cheeseburger is the ultimate citizenship test. Its meat verifies your not a vegetarian, its bacon that your not Jewish or Arab and its cheese that your not lactose intolerant.
Oh god that'd be amazing. Come back from an international trip, customs checks your luggage and paperwork, and the BP guys serve up a hot & juicy bacon cheeseburger while you wait for customs to finish. And they don't let you go unless you eat at least half the burger. We can budget for that in the federal budget, right? :story:

It was the political equivalent of "I'm not touching you." They tiptoed right up to the line of telling the military to defy orders from the Commander in Chief without directly saying anything libelous.
Trump should still kill them anyway, though.
Any ordinary citizen would get a visit from the feds for openly calling for this kind of shit. These pricks should too. Every fucking time they do it. No charges (unless they actually admit to being serious), but the same treatment we get for saying things like that. Kinda like how the Secret Service has to investigate all credible threats against the President, yet practically none of them result in charges after one "polite" conversation at home. Give 'em a taste of that to teach them to shut their fucking mouths unless they're actually engaged in legislative work.

This is because they exist entirely within very complex academic sophistry that insulates them from both reality and second order effect because they reject reality and substitute their own. They ironically believe in the tabulas rasa for not just people, but all reality, and if they tear down the existing framework they will be left with...nothing, a blank canvas on which to paint what they want.
Postmodernism in a nutshell. They've been brewing this shit up for decades now.

Eventually all avenues of peaceful resolution are cut off from the people, because those in power do not want to change or surrender their positions. This does not make those people or their grievances vanish, however, it only prevents their peaceful expression.
Same thing that got Trump elected in 2016. So many people tried to silence his supporters by banning them from everywhere they could online and trying to ostracize them IRL as much as possible, it pissed people off and created so much grassroots support for him they simply couldn't kill it just by trying to censor people. They banned hundreds of thousands from social media of all flavors, but they couldn't stop conversations at churches, local bars, bingo halls, Moose Lodges, blue-collar workplaces, and the like. It never even occurred to them to try (they never attend church, only drink at trendy upscale bars, and wouldn't be caught dead at an old-school club or working a blue-collar job).

We spoke instead with our votes and it caught them completely by surprise. You can tell by just watching the news coverage from election night in 2016. Those talking heads didn't have scripts for a surprise Trump win. The different news outlets didn't have fancy animated high-def graphics and flashy "swooshes" to use to show on their screens featuring Trump's portrait as the winner. Every talking head sat in stunned silence and/or went masks-off immediately, not because "Trump wasn't supposed to win" but rather "it's rigged so Trump cannot win." None of them had prepared remarks for a Trump victory -- only a Clinton one. Nothing convinced me of the fix more than the response on election night by the press outlets.

2020's COVID antics helped curb some of the in-person socialization by banning public activity for as long as they managed to, and without it I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have been able to steal 2020.

Methinks showing B-roll of illegals getting arrested, a crying illegal, and an ICE agent holding a baby (who was probably also crying) was intentional to make the viewer side with the brothers 🤔
The press will never support ICE. They'll do everything they can to manipulate public opinion against this activity. They're getting increasingly aggressive and desperate about it because people just aren't buying it anymore, as demonstrated by Trump's increasing approval ratings even by the pro-democrat pollsters.
 
That's neither here nor there in regards to it being a "seditious act deserving of Death"
It's pushing the idea that they need to pick a side. Even if they don't think that assisting with illegal alien deportations or drug cartel bombings are illegal orders, anything he does in the future will be and they need to openly defy that.

It's shitlibs so they do view the deportation assistance and drug cartel disruptions as illegal. They just aren't going to say it outright. just continue to play their tee hee I'm not touching you word fuck fuck games until somebody with unsound mind tries to kill him again, tries to kill someone else in the administration, or even try to kill their commanding officer.

I might have been in agreement with this kind of rational take before say, J6 and the subsequent purging of the military


Now I think the left literally wants control of the military and just disguises it as resisting right wing control. But you also know these people are in constant contact with their Canadian brethren, and up there they introduced some kind of legislation to militarize low level public servants
 
Cause Indians completely killed his idea of paying people for good and interesting content on twitter through engagement farming/other schemes.

Musk wants twitter to grow and artist to post on it as a livelihood. Indians killed that.
The Internet and the world would be so much better if they just banned India and indians.

Putin is making it hard to go full Tom Clancy mode and have the Eagle and the Bear team up to tear apart the Paper Dragon.
I think of it in terms of he’s fucking over Niven and Pournelle’s co-dominium universe, wherein Russia has to nuke China so we can team up to rule space

The novel where that happens is called Lucifer’s Hammer

I've read that novel and I, for some reason, don't recall that plot. Pretty sure Lucifer's Hammer is about an asteroid hitting the earth.

It IS mainly about that. You probably don’t remember Russia nuking China because it’s background information while the perspective characters are trying to survive, but it sets up the whole co dominium universe where A Mote in God’s Eye happens
 
This is the kind of fascism I can get behind:


THE Trump administration has announced a fresh campaign prior to holiday travel, telling Americans they must “dress with respect” at airports.

The new rule is cited to have been put in place due to past reports from airlines of poor behavior on flights.
If it isn’t followed, passengers run the risk of facing fines, or even flight bans.

According to 2025 data from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), there have been 1,431 reports of ill-behaved passengers up to November of this year.

This has resulted in a total of $2.1 million being dished out on fines.

The hope is to crack down on the lack of civility onboard and towards air travel staff by rebranding the aviation industry to be something more elegant and classy.

Transportation secretary Sean Duffy confirmed the initiative through a video on Instagram, depicting how juxtaposing behaviour onboard flights today is in comparison to the past.

The clip begins by showing footage of old-fashioned American air travel, followed by a series of shots of what flying can unfortunately be like in the modern day.

It includes fighting on flights, people dangling their bare feet on open seats, and the brawling state people are often met by at the dreaded baggage claim.

The video then cuts to show Sean simply saying: “Manners don’t stop at the gate.

To assess whether you’re fulfilling the criteria of attending with “civility”, a passenger is encouraged to ask themselves five key questions.

They include: “are you helping a pregnant woman placing her bags in the overhead bin, are you dressing with respect, are you keeping control of your children, are you saying thank you to your flight attendants, and are you saying please and thank you in general?”

Dressing with respect, according to Sean, means making an effort to look presentable.

“We have unruly passengers on airplanes. People dress up like they’re going to bed when they fly,” he said on the matter.

“Help people out, be in a mood mood, dress up, bring civility back to travel.”

If this gets rid of Shanequa's half naked fat ass and raggety bare feet, I'm all for it.

It's a shame they can't be sued into oblivion like Alex Jones. Their rhetoric is more dangerous than his ever was.
